🎾 OFFICIAL AGASSI RETRO THREAD 🎾

[j0e musashi]

Nice.
Which year?

And why don't you Pump Up... and Air out! 

2012. They're the best version, and closest to the OG from what I can gather. I remember you saying before that the Pump system is weak on certain pairs, and that seems to be the 2010's. The 2003's don't even have a functioning Pump system at all!

Mine won't arrive until the 4th, but I can't wait to get ahold of them. 22 years since my last pair.

 

[Sinner]

Yeah, mine were the 2010's... forgot that they retro'd them again in 2012!  Among the other changes, the yellow toe-guard was also smaller on my 2010's. 

 

[Sinner]

Ooops. Wrong thread. 

 

[j0e musashi]

The yellow toe guard is awesome I reckon. I can't decide whether to put GITD or matching yellow laces in them. The excitement is killing me though, so I upgraded to Priority Mail Express, which means I'll have them by the 30th. I just need the Jordan VI, then I'm done for a while. That'll be seven pairs I've bought this month.

Just online....or in store as well?

Mildly interesting comment from Complex editor re the whole Hot Lava/Yeezy hypbeast rubbish for those not seen it yet.

These were some of the easiest shoes to cop this year. If you didn't have success getting these than the it's time to rethink your role in the sneaker game or start adapting. 

theres always a fool like this who lucks out and gets an easy transaction then thinks he can speak for everyone else like hes the district manager of the world lol

sneaker game? what are you 12?

its just shoes little man

its a purchase not a life decision

 

[All Ready]

was anybody able to half size down and wear them comfortably?

 

[dathirstisreal]

so do you think these will have a general release this summer? i'm thinking about trading my royal 1's for a pair of these and some cash.

 

[843airmaestro]

Selling out in under five seconds on every site they are on and not being available at most regular brick and mortar locations is easy?​

Just so I understand how this is happening, a script scans for the TLO, then jumps you to the page while adding size and quantity to your cart and you are at checkout page, Right?

Are you talking about Jordan Royal 1's? Are they 2013 DS? If so, you could probably trade for 4 pairs.

Most inaccurate post I've read in a while. These were QS's. They were very diffucult to get online for retail and a little hard to get at store. Only good thing is alot of people don't know too much about the ATC2 background so that kept a couple of hypebeasts at home and sleeping in.
I know right

Not true at all. NikeStore and FootAction were SOLDOUT before 8AM.

This was actually the first shoe release I bothered getting up in the morning for. I simply refreshed the twitter feed myself, clicked on the link, and ordered the shoes. I had to wait in line for about 10 seconds, and I wear what I assume to be a very common size (10). So for me at least, it was extremely easy. I really feel for people who were not able to cop, as I see dozens of pairs coming up for sale on my ebay front page.

An article on the history of tennis kicks and how nothing compares to Agassi's style of kicks in today's game. Technology might have improved but nobody is wearing today's tennis shoes both on and off the court.

[Sinner]

 Well, I can't be certain it's the exact, same scan... but I did make a scan of that pic a while back.  Still have the booklet!

That my friend would NEVER be "all good" imo. Feel for you. Watch your neighbors closely. Aint no way to sneak out of a house with 200 boxes, someone saw something or set you up

Straight inside job... my house was broken into a few yrs back they didnt touch my shoes got TVs, electronics etc but boxes werent even moved. They didnt have time to go through the boxes and they probably had no clue what they were. 

200+ boxes takes time to steal someone knew you were not going to be home for a min. 

Hope you have homeowners/renters insurance. 

 

[jada2001retro]

Insurance fraud.
