🎾 OFFICIAL AGASSI RETRO THREAD 🎾

What we really need is the white/blue/neon CW though - THAT WAS THE BEST COLOR of these, IMO
so true imo

Teal and lime is the classic, so close, yet so far away!

With a few tweaks, I'd be all over them. As of now, they're "if at the outlets for the low" status... which I must constantly remind myself qualifies as in the 99th percentile of Nike retro releases these days.

I don't ever see Atc II's hitting outlets like in the past.
 
Hmmm... interesting teal-lime... 

Still not sure about that blocking though... not sure about the lime-placement. 

Then again, would we have preferred to see this sort of blocking? I dunno.

That cw would have been good with the lava graphic but without it nah.

Depends on how widely they are released and in how many colors.

If they were released as a GR in numerous CWs like many retro models, I absolutely think they'd reach outlets. I see no reason why they would do any better than Speed Turfs, Deions, Uptempo Maxes, etc. We are a very small minority of the customer base - I bet if you showed a pic of the ATC2 to half the people right here on NT, they couldn't name it. ...You'd probably get - it's some Agassi shoe.

The counterpoint is that even the ATC 3 retros from like '06 are starting to sell - and those are considered (and rightfully so) one of Nike's worst Retro efforts of all time! So, maybe the Agassi thirst is real... who knows.
 
Hmmm.  The toebox looks a bit more lower/tapered than the '08 retros... '14 retro shape...?  Of course, that could just be the angle of the photo.

the toebox does look decent in that angle

...& my guess too would be 2008's - but the grey looks darker than than on my 08s & the lava is muted (or there is less compared to the black) on that pair than mine
...but they're a little too beat to be new i would think?
 
Definitely 08s.  One obvious difference between the 08 and the 14 samples that I can see is the cut at the end of the black line.  

My 08s for comparison. They have sort of a square cut.

The '13s (rounder)

Sample 14s (round)

This thread just makes me regret more and more not copping the ATC 1s when they sat at Nordstrom Rack for $40.
 
The shoe was sold for 120. So you figure that out yourself. If you really want it and have the paper laying around, then by all means, buy it.
