Well according to a fellow NTer, Neons drop 3/20/10. Can anyone else confirm this? I'll update the first page anyways.
The older bubbles are noticeably bigger than the recent releases. Also, these new 95s are hardly comfortable. The problem is that the older 95sare harder to find and to the point of crumbling when u put them on so we have to deal with the newer releases. I do agree on some pairs that the darker shadesof grey are better. Looks more like a true gradient imo. But I personally wouldnt pay more for bigger bubbles since Nike should already be giving us those. Ifthey could make em big 15 years ago then why do we have to pay more for em now? Just my opinion... Edit: Thanks RL, just needed a 2nd opinion.
The neon jacket and rib-cage T just popped up at my local spot. Retail is $150 for the jacket. T was like $32 I believe. Pretty clean in person.
Will be purchasing my 2010 Neons tommorrow.......pics to follow. Oh and theyve changed the insole from last year, its a grey colour as opposed to the HOA onefrom the 09 release.........
I agree with everything you said. I only said I'd pay extra for the older air pockets because I loved that cushioning, and I would do the samefor the old DMX lite cushioning from the Reebok Iverson line, just because I loved it THAT MUCH. There's no reason they can't still have that nowthough in the existing shoes though.
Hard to tell from the stock photo, and I haven't seen the samples yet, but I HOPE they don't look like that pair, and the panels are in the OG order.
You can see the older edition of the slates and the crystals. even comets a little bit. rather go with a reup of the 02-03 edition. those OG crystals andcomets are the business tho.
demo95king- I would love to know how these got labled crystal blue. They are nowhere near it. I'm telling you its Imperial Blue.
^^^U kno I have no idea who labeled them Crystal Blue, they just came with the pic I saw. I see what u mean, the blue isn't like the OGs. I'll wait tilwe'll see more pics and a confirmed color code before I change the name on the first post.
dunno how come its labeled crystal blue. u are right its kickz4show, the color isnt too close to crystal. But folks been calling em that in this post. btw, that pic i posted of the 95s shink wrapped is from theshoegame.com, tokyo mike took TSG around to see some shops around japan.
What's retail for the Neons? And will there be any noticeable difference between the 2010's and the 2008's? I have the opportunity to buy the 08s for $150 shipped
Wonder if there is going to be any chance of getting the Neon's below retail. I actually have the 08 version that I use to run in at the gym and don't really want to pay retail to stock a fresh pair. This is one release I hope is widely availiable.
I dunno, I think it might be "Neptune Blue" a la the similar color on nike iD right now... but who knows. Nike will name the same color 5 different names, and they'll make 5 different colors with the same name, so it doesn't really make much of a difference, haha. also, for reference, CrisOne's OG slates (borrowed from his collection post):
