I like 2002s!!!

This. At least in my opinion, this is one of the few sneakers that I like the first retro over the OG. 
2002 > 1992 > 2012 > DMP, just my opinion.

agreed

Ill take 02s over any other year... They did it best in 2002.

Wrong 1992>>>>>

02s will NEVER be better than these...The shape of the OG alone equals >>>>>>>

Also Flat laces> 

True. OG's look so much better. 02s were the beginning of bulking out the VIIs. 

Absolutely agree. Retro shape is way off. Passed on the Bordeaux for that reason. Well actually for the materials too.

Look at the difference in width at the lace area between OG and retro. That makes it a completely different shoe to me. Pass on all VII till they fix it.

yes yes yessssssssssssssss!!!!!! i cant wait now

 

[sneakerfan1]

JB heard the outrage over how grey the DMPs were and decided to do a complete 180 and make the whole shoe black.

Look at them alone and they look great. Compare them to 2002s and they're just decent. Hated the DMPs though so I'm definitely grabbing these at least until I can find some DS 2002s for a decent price.

 

[babylonzion]

definitely looking forward to these

 

[futuredhughes]

2012's looking nice up there.

The purple laces on the DMPs.......

 

Anyways, some more updated pics via SN.

Never had these, so I'm glad they are coming back out this year.

If i can't get the olympic 6's I'm definitely going after these

[niketalk111]

Will definitely grab at least 1 of these. Those pics look dope!

 

[cucumbercool]

Dude asking 175 for faded 2002 pair lol..I'll wake up early and get a couple pairs.

 

[tony906]

Needs a lace swap

 

[So Much Sole 23]

Rico, You Are Definitely My Dude And All, But You Sir Are BUGGIN' With These Statements!!!!

A Retro NEVER Has And NEVER Will Be Better Than These Shoes In Their Original Form.....PERIOD!

..... Only Thing That Can Even Hold A Candle To OG's Is The FIRST Retro Runs Done In 1994(ie. 1's,2's,3's).... And That's Still Just A Birthday Candle Trying To Light An Entire Stadium

*Now Hurry Up And Send Me Out Some Of Whatever That Is You've Been Smokin On!

 

[xsalvioutlawx]

I agree. Just look at the shape of the OG's. Simply an amazing looking shoe. 02's were awesome as well, but I don't see how they're better than the OG's.

2012's look like Knockoffs compared to both smh

 

[Hallorrann]

the older 7's look so much sharper, they made the new ones look soft as @+@!
and whoever's idea it was to throw on those purple laces needs to get curb stomped

 

[manifresh]

I hate how they made the 2012s black shouldve been more dark gray charcoal type color..smh

I'm happy with the way they came out... I prefer the way these look compared to the DMPs

 

[blacklion23]

@ that pic of the OGs!!! Though I don't agree the 02s are better than OGs, I see where you guys are coming from, especially dude that made the statement about the 03 black/red 12s.

The wings are damn near non-existent on the 2012s...

might cop a pair of 2003 to go with my OGs instead... *watches money vanish* 

 

[RustyShackleford]

This situation is kinda like the Varsity Red 6s. They pale in comparison to the OGs and previous retro, but the shoe is sooo damn sexy that you still got get them.
