i agree with both of you, as i remember it the Scarface tag arose because the FAMOUS POSTER of the movie is blck/red/white ..... pretty weak imhoOriginally Posted by sneakermane

But Scarfaces?! They shouldn't even disrespect Al Pacino by naming such a wack colorway the Scarfaces.
Noone named the homes Scarface. The freegums were inspired by Scarface because of the Miami ties and people got the homes and the freegums mixed up when the early pictures were coming out. People didn't know they were two separate releases and once the freegums got that name to stick, people stuck the homes with Scarface. They have absolutely no business being called that and there was absolutely no intention of Nike for them to be. Blame all these so called news websites that get blurry pictures and like to speculate and make up names. Nike didn't even start assigning names to shoes at all until this year but we've had a "nickname" for every shoe that has ever come out. Examples are the kobe grinch and miami night low from last year. Its been said by nike that the Miami night theme was always only intended for the 9 colorway and that the christmas Kobe 6 was designed after the green mamba snake (which it actually looks just like) and they had no intention for it to be the grinch. Nicknames have gone too far and need to stop.
Dead on with your statement. Especially the part about those 8 lows not being Miami Nights. JP even stated this but resellers can demand more money for those 8 lows by calling them Miami Nights. I always wondered why the homes were called Scarfaces because I couldn't see what that colorway had to do with the movie.....besides Lebron playing in Miami.
them osu's are crickety crack

Got my swingmans in today.. Love them.. This happens every year, after I get 1 pair of lebrons I wan't to get another. These seem like they would be a beast on the court.
I went true to size and they don't fit as bad as some of y'all make it out to be.. Will be breaking mine out tomorrow

Edit: Didn't see the GIANT crease, sorry about that man

He is clearly upset over the huge crease and the off centered logo is the icing on the cake.

My Swingmans run smaller and tighter than my cannons and free gums. Anybody else feel like the Swingmans are smaller?

chill out--- I'm not real nit picky about my shoes so no, I don't notice a crease. At least not anything out the ordinary--- you mean the 'crease' right below the laces? I thought that was normal.

got my pairs today (copped all 3)
Very happy with all of them.
That Fast Life shirt isn't bad, but after looking for tees to go with Dunkmans/Swingmans I have one question: WHY MUST ALL NIKE SHIRTS HAVE THE CORNIEST STATEMENTS ON THEM!?
