Very much looking forward to grabbing a pair this time around. One of my favorite shoes from the greatest year of sneakers (95'). I still vividly remember this magazine ad
Neither HOH in my area got them, but 4 regular footlockers did. Its gotta be some type of incriment release just like the red lowtop lebron 12s. I just need Nike.com to get em, lol.
Holy SH*T at that ad. I remember it clearly in my SI for kids. I used to call the number and listen to the message. Sergei Fedorov had a similar ad for the Nike Air Street Express. So much nostalgia with that photo. Great post.
Adore the OG black/white. Wore them in one varsity bball game, then retired them. My feet felt like I ran them thru a meat grinder. That said, I'm buying the 2015s asap
The mid-90s for me were the best years for shoes. Basketball shoes from that era will always have the #1 spot in my heart
Always liked the look of these but never copped. I'll be lookin to cop this time around for sure. Did the OG's and past retro's fit TTS?
I caught the same $30 clearance sale you did and ended up with four pairs. Still got one pair DS and another clinging on to life. Doubt this new retro reach that kind of discount... These were a perfect retro, Nike couldnt have done a better job. No yellowing...
I historically have disliked shoes with all-white soles, but it never mattered with these - EVERYTHING about carbon fiber CW has always worked for me. All that being said, why release some "ehhhhh" retro + colorways instead of some more OG colorways? I want to see these come back.
This. Makes you wonder who is truly calling the shots/working for Nike and JB. When your numbers are great it becomes harder to see room for improvement.
Word, copped a few months ago which is the crazy part Which means they were sitting in some room somewhere for the past 7 years because i believe these last came out in 08 No yellowing anywhere on the shoes, parted with the 10.5, keeping the last 2
never could get down with these but i remember not being able to take my eyes off of them when i first seen them lol
