FOAMPOSITE DISCUSSION Nike Air Foamposite One SWOOSH ALL OVER DEC192019

[hoopsboy]

Got the sequoia cheap on StockX before even seeing them in person. Took a chance because I love SOME foams and have since 97 when Bibby rocked the royals. I wanted a non all black winter beater and I liked the orange accents.

WOW.

Haven’t been a fan of wild colored, textured, graphic or non foam material foams that have been releasing in the last few years (I can rock with royal, eggplants and voltage pros and be done) but these sequoia are NICE. I actually like the texture and tough look with the canvas upper. The orange accents set it off from being a another dark green/almost all black foam.

 

[howdythere]

Is it just me or do the sequoias look less bulky than other foams? I don’t mind that one bit.

Those are the best foams after the royals.

Everytime I see someone wearing those I look at them.
Seen alot of girls with those too.

 

[putting in work]

Those are the best foams after the royals.

Wow!

#2 all time after Royal's.

They're not even top 10 in my opinion.

 

[jordanhead718212]

Lmfaooo dude been saying that since they dropped, he wildin. Not even top 20 to keep it a stack.

 

[atdizzle]

talking about those above? they not even top 20 like somebody else said. holos pop more than them. heck, the gone fishings look better than those.

also, royals not the best. id take some metallic reds over royals.

but every1 is entitled to their opinion.

 

[sharpshooter718]

Dude, come on.

That's something a drugged person would say.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

Nothing beats the original. The Metallic Red's are nice, but they could've been nicer. To me, the finish of the foam isn't right.

But you are correct, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Speaking of the Abalones, I wouldn't mind a pair if the price was right. Been searching a few pages back in this thread, but those links are all dried up. Didn't see any left at my local mall, and called another local mall, no dice. Looking like StockX might be my only avenue? Size 9, fwiw.

i just have a bias for the metallic reds cause i missed out on the OGs and then also on the most recent release of em again. so i still dont have a pair thus why id take them over royals. that and plus i like red more than blue anyways.

[SC kid]

I realize it's an odd opinion but all the other foams I've seen, I can look at one time and it's like whatever.

The abalone ones I never get tired of looking at.
They are the most pleasing to my eye.
The combination of colors on top of the texture of the foamposite is very aesthetic. Looks like water

And to be honest, the only reason I put the royals above those may be sentimentality.
