Actually, the pearls from 02 were more of an opaque white than icy.
The problem is that opaque got pee yellow quickly if you rocked them. I have no issue with the new soles because of that.

Not rich, just value money differently. Most people would consider someone who pays 200 for shoes on the reg to be "rich"... my grandparents always ask how much my new shoes are since I ship stuff there, I usually lie and cut the price in half and they still act like Im spending mortgage money. I showed my grandma the invoice when I got both Supreme foams in one order... I don't think I've ever seen her look that disappointed

but 200 can be adjusted for inflation to "some degree" 1500 cant..thats insane.. and many other words i cant use on the thread..1500 makes me think macmini server with a screen.. not a pair of space aged shoes with GITD tech that if someone steps on them wrong.. the stuff gets all messed up and someones ready to fight.Not rich, just value money differently.

Foamposites defintely are one of my favorite basketball sneaker, no doubt about it but for the past 3 or years they have been releasing too many crazy colors which threw it off for me. I mean the electric green pros were the last foams that I copped, still kept my 1997 pearls and volts. Can't wait for 2016 to come around the Dr.Dooms are dropping!

What if I step on your little computer? 1500 is different to everyone. To someone its a shoe by Kanye West, to you it's a computer, to me it's some new tires for my truck... mud tires, which will never see mud and get torn up really quickly on the streets. Money is meant to be enjoyed... so buy useless things and enjoy it.

Is there a difference in the Foam color? Old Pearls have more of a cream color than the pics of the new release, correct? Or is that due to aging?

Well on my 97 Pearls the color is more of a white, I remember the 2010 release for the pearls the color was different on them, seemed more of cream color. Looking at the 2015 pearls I would say that the color is more of a white. Even the 2002 pearls were a white color.

It's all YMMV since they aren't sitting online so the deals will be more local.

So I was trying to find out what foamposites were going to drop in 2016 and this is what I came across.
These are defintely worth goin after and buying but my biggest beef is why do the Volts have a metallic swosh on it? The color of the swosh is to glossy and doesnt seem to match the original pair.
