A shoe ahead of its time…. Back after 24 years

And possibly still ahead of its time???
I wonder what the reaction would be if the Crazy 1 and 2 came out today for the first time as a signature shoe for Anthony Edwards or James Harden
 
Fortunate to still have an OG pair (I have the white pair as well). I’m disappointed. They took a bulky shoe and somehow made it even bulkier. My OG pair is a sz 12, and the new pair is a sz 11, but you can clearly see from the top view just how much wider these are

What's the difference in cushioning like?
I have only wore them around the house for a day, so take that into consideration here:

Not significant. At first they feel very similar but once you break them in a little, you can feel some of the boost “sinking” feeling. I’d call them firm, but less firm than the OG’s (which are rocks). My problem is that the new ones feel flat. These to me are a piece of art or history that you display

I think it’s awesome that adidas remade these, but I wouldn’t buy them unless to display, as mentioned above, or if you never owned a pair and you want some nostalgia. But no one is ever going to mistake these for some performance shoes or mistake them for some comfy casual shoes. If you’ve never wore the OG pair, they are an oven for your feet and they are very stiff (albeit, the ‘foam’ structure is much softer like how the new foamposite material is)
 
Thanks!
Do you have the Crazy iiinfinity and are the Crazy 2 similar to or better than them?
 
I don’t know what u guys r talking about but these are good for bball… also better than the crazy 1

Is that an "after" picture? If so, I'm impressed...if I remember correctly, the OGs creased somewhat badly.
