Will the Foam Madness continue?

[michael0360]

so the last few years foams have been dropping like crazzy as we all know
this year we have already had royals, pewters, electric green pros, with electric green ones, pine pros & electric blue/teal pro loomin

are they going to continue to pop out a new colorway every few months?

are foams the next air max 90/95s or air force ones where we ggoing to constantly see these releases?

theyre losing that little wow factor they used to havee

[ScroogeMcBuckz]

Yes.

Before 2007 foam releases were scarce, which made them must buys when you saw them.

Those days are over.

Foams are the new hype shoe, probably 90% of the people buying them now weren't into them when they first dropped and in the early 00's

Nike will milk it as long as it sells. Sucks but it's business.

I can see Nike milking them with a colorway every few months. Foams are much better when they release rarely & have only a certain few colorways to their name... I can personally do without most of these colorways being released recently.

Still one of my favorite shoes though...

Flightposite 1s Have Won Me Over As My Favorite Posite Shoe... All You Hear/See Now Days Is Foams... Foamposite AF1, Foamposite This, Electric Green That... Posite Shoes In General Were Better Off When They Had Simple But Odd Colorways To Them... FP1s For Example... Carbon Fiber, Eggplant, All Black, Silver, Gold, Jason Kidds. All Chill Colorways... The Hype Jus Seems To Have Built Ever Since The 09 Eggplants... The Coppers The Following Year Jus Added Fire To The Flame... Then It Jus Kept Goin An Goin... Now Its Jus To The Point Where You Question What Wont They Do Next...

It's nothing but a "wave"... And Nike wouldn't be the business it is if they didn't milk it.

Look at the last decade...

It has gone to Jordans, to Nike runners... to SBs and patent forces... to foams. Jordans being the most consistent, of course, as expected.

And the wave never lasts too long.

Again, as long as it doesn't get to my FPIs, I'm GOOD.

With all the crap quality retros and jordans, foams are the only sneaker as of late that actually makes me say ''WOW'' anymore [lebrons and kobes aside] Im sorry but the blue, pearl, copper eggplants and pewters are sick. The foamposite is timeless and could be nikes best sneaker period. The foam craze will end just like the air force 1 craze, sb dunk craze even the retro jordan craze has slumped a little. But when alls done they will always be sought after by true collectors regardless of their age.

I Love The Royals, Pearls, Coppers, Eggplants, And Pewters... I Love Foamposites In General... But It Jus Blows Me That Foamposites Are Even Goin Through A "Craze". Nike Hit Gold With These... $200 Shoe + Hype + Mass Production. I Understand The Marketing Aspect But Still...

im not saying that i hate these cw's... i like all of those shoes..
but ik theres no stoppign them now, but i just wish theyd be spread out more 

something like 1 pro and 1 one per year... rather then the... 6 total lookin to come out this yr... thats 1 per 2 months.

if the rate continues foams will be on everyyones feet with every color of the rainbow soon and i gotta b real selective when it comes to which to buy

[Nate Dogg] "HOLD UP!"

Slim, back in 1996 - 00.  You bought ONE pair of foams, you were damn near set for life.

These days, you really kinda have to double up on FOAMS now.  So quality of these joints now (in comparison to the past) is about same par as JB for real in comparison.

Forced to accept the "cratters" and "bullet wounds" on foams. 

Foams were one smooth piece that molded on your foot after while.  Go to a club, change a tire, caught in the snow... Aint matter. Wipe and go.

Now, you can't even have the edge of your front door hit them without them splitting (referring to pic posted here recently).  

Old pair of foams would have had a small scratch, and kept it pushing...

Expect the rainbow bright colors to continue next 8 quarters...
