You should’ve gone through and done the midsole as well
 
Repped.These look great. I’ve never understood why they chose to black/white out the Nike Air on some of the 6s but gave the Carmine’s the red Nike Air.

Probably something to do with trying to phase out NA all together since we dont get it with the VII's. That leaves Carmines like you said which might just be a design enhancement.
 
Tinker’s original vision for the infrareds is PERFECT as is IMO. The red NA isn’t bad looking by any means, but to me it lowers the lethal effect of the sneaker significantly.
 
noob question: do you guys where the lace lock with the shoe, if you do, where do you lock it, because you tie it, or do you lock it in one of the cross eyelids before you get to the top where you tie it? i'm putting them on for the first time at work trying to break them in for hoops maybe this saturday or next saturday.
 
Fun fact. Carmines are called carmines because that red IS carmine.

LOL thanks for the insightful input. I’m aware what the shade of “carmine” is called and why they’re called that but thanks.

That makes sense. The colored Nike Air just pops so well on the Vs and Carmine’s. Ohh well, I guess. Tinker knew what he was doing either way

ok i did a little weight test on the shoe i got from nike and the shoes i just received from DTLR/Villa, today. Here is the results. you tell me what you think, after seeing this and the box decrecpiencys that i posted eariler.

here we go ( all weights are in G = Grams.

this was the first thing i noticed (by accident, have you)

after noticeing that color and size of the jumpman logos, i decided to investigate more into the box and noticed this

also after taking out the black papers and laying them on top of each other, i noticed that the DTLR paper was about a 3/4 of an inch WIDER, both were equal in lenght. also the nike paper felt a little crispier, just by the slightest teeny tiny amount ( i guess it could of been placebo, but i doubt it)

well after this, i decided to take out the Ol trusty kitchen scale and give em a weight compairson. here's the results as of now. measured in G which = Grams.

Boxes First

Now im not jumping to conclusions and definalty not trying to throw DTLR/VILLA under the bus. I'm just showing the inconsistencies that i have found between the shoes and packaging. I Have yest to compare the shoes, so i'll save that for tomorrow and hopefully they come up as the same thing.

What is your guys opinion after seeing all this???


Thank you so much for posting this. I needed this today.
 
Regarding the ekhunter ekhunter post, the 3 box pics below are all 2019 Infrareds..

This is how both the sz 10 from fnl restock and the other sz 10.5 from ftl on the drop boxes look inside...

All the sneaks in the box are alike.


so you think it just a descrepency in the box print buy jb then? seems weird but i guess it can happen. like i said i noticed it by accident

I do a bunny ear and lock it through my top outer lace hole. I might do all 4 now that Ihave an extra pair and 4 matching lace locks..
 
Bruh, a couple days ago I posted that a Finishline in a mall by me in Maryland got a restock, so keep a look out since they are popping up randomly in the area.

Keep me posted brethren if you see anything, please & thank you. I'll pop my head in every 8 hours or so for a DM or heads up post. I need a 9.5. Gonna take a few sips of brew for serenity before I go nuclear & zap on these Finish Line clowns. LOL
