Idk y people r disappointed it clearly says tech gray on the catalog pics. I will cop one pair because they will probably come out with a cement package. Jb did this with the infrared pack its just for them to make more $ imo.

Its debatable whether these are Cement Grey or Tech Grey. As you can see, Tech Grey can either be light (like the Nomos) or dark (like the Air Forces)Originally Posted by rauls054

Back in 1999, people didn't like them because the grey is much lighter the the 1989 version
So the 2012 color scheme is truer to the original 1989 version but it people have a problem with it being too dark?
There are not even enough pairs of the 1999 version floating around for everyone here on NT (yet alone all the other sites)
Too many people confuse the 1999's as "OG's"

so correct, I feel as if for all the OG's that first retroed (1's, 2's, 3's) that the '94 retro was the best OG's shapes look weird, but as Animal thug mentioned, its just my opinion.Originally Posted by Animal Thug1539

i.e. 2002 Blk/Red VII's > OG's, my opinion of course.

QFT....
I always felt the same way.
Same goes for 03 BLACK / RED XIIs.... my opinion of course.
not to mention '03 white cement 3 > '94 white cement 3, except for the Nike Air of course.

Who is everyone??? Everyone on NT???Originally Posted by bnesdatruth
The splatter on the 99 cements is ridiculous. But to the guy up there about settling, he's right. If you everyone would just let kicks sit that they have "Bad quality". I bet the you they would improve it.
