The Glove Thread / Zoom Flight 98

[fdub]

I loved the 2013 so I can’t be mad about these. I’m still in, I do wish we got forefoot zoom tho.

They better not do this with Flightposite 3s

If they did that to the Flightposite 3’d, awwww man, that would be a true travesty to the 3rd power!!!! At that point, Nike deserves everything downfall they are getting from the shareholders. The ultra responsive FLZ on the FP3’s is the selling point of the shoe. Without that, might as well not even bring the shoe back out.

These retro tear downs are pretty poor quality compared to the OGs.

This glove retro and the Griffey 1 is suffering the same fate.

some pairs I do pass on but for these Imma just put my nostalgia blinders on and keep it pushing.

I did the mental gymnastics with the Riot SBs. Can't stand France, but the shoe was too dope. I got sneaker amnesia on that release and was ok with that.

FP3s are going to be around $240 like most posites, I don’t think they could get away with that.

I still have my 1st retro of these and I remember the carbon fiber being that stupid plastic sh*t. They didn't even stand the test of time either. I've had Jordan's that I played basketball in last longer than these lol.

Ok! Yes! I was just thinking that. It made the inside look awesome. The white pair had the silver laces too.

Mine were worn too. Probably 2-3x. The white paint on the midsole swoosh was cracked too. Hopefully these don’t do that.

If my FTL gets them, I'm in.

Still copping first day

Local spot told me in-store raffle.

Perplexing to mind the possible scarcity while griping about the build, but it is what it is.
