ThisSize 13 here and over 20 pairs of foams. I never knew these were for women and small footers only. Somebody needs to let Nike know to stop making them in bigger sizes.
nobodys talking about the Obs's..... easy pass for me..Im tryna guage the hype On the obsidians. I got no problem paying retail but if i hold out my boy can give me 20% off. Should i chance it and wait?

I'm not settling for anything. When the first pics surfaced of the back of the shoe I thought it looked nice while everyone complained... it's never about what looks better, it's always about what's older. Just like Gamer G said it's the exact Reverse of the Jordan/Nike Air situation, people will complain about any little change to a shoe. To me it looks nicer with the NIKE on the back... I'm just saying Nike isn't gonna phase out the Cent logo, I'm sure this is just for the NYC ASG.
You're right its just my opinion and I really dont care one way or the other on if its a penny logo or NIKE, I really just like on these because they're chrome and I like a the little special touches on certain shoes... where were all the complaints for the Paranormans dropping the cent?Opinion is all subjective. If you prefer these with NIKE on the back, then fine, you're obviously entitled to your opinion. I, on the other hand, think it looks out of place, and shouldn't be there.
As far as the Cent logo, I hope that it remains on all of the Foamposite 1's in the future, because of the historical significance. But Nike does some off the wall **** so I would not be surprised if they scaled back on the logo being on the Foams, in order to bring it back out with an increased hype, of course this would take years.......similar to what JB finally did with the 88 cement 3's.

it had something sewn in and that was cool.. same with sole collector and spike's PE and oregon.. but NIKE and its not sewn in and the new gold with the stamped one cent look + a price hike.. = not cool.You're right its just my opinion and I really dont care one way or the other on if its a penny logo or NIKE, I really just like on these because they're chrome and I like a the little special touches on certain shoes... where were all the complaints for the Paranormans dropping the cent?
hahaha... #NTprohetsThese forums never cease to amaze me. The bold statements
yeah on the paranorman's.. i give shade to all my friends who got them for free.. big time..huge shade!!!
100 on the Paranormans bro. They not complaining cause they don't have them and probably won't. I myself do not have them either, but it don't have anything to do with the shoe itself, just the price tag.
hahaha... #NTprohets
But as long as its sewn in and icy, for real straight dope heat flame jawns FAM!
love the dope talk.. so how did people say something was dope in reference to your dopes.. did they say.. those dopes are dope or did they say those are some dope dopes... curious.. and yes dmv was crazy about foams but lets not forgot Tide water and 804 were on them heavy too aroudn that time.
I aint finna sit here n say im Some huge collector although i have my share of kicks lol and i have been on the Dopes (Foams) since wayyyy back. I aint being funny but alot of ppl just got hip to them in the last few years whereas in Bmore n DC n few other spots these been the @#$%!!! In baltimore i been at stores plenty times when Dopes n Jordans were droppin same day and most ppl in line would be there for the Dopes not the Jordans. I got my ticket for the blk/red 4s super easy cuz everybody was in line for the pink Dopes. The rest of the country is sorta late far as Foams is concerned. Another thing too i remember getting on NT 10 - 12 years ago and the Foams thread used to be DEAD!!! Now the threads be crazy. My sister in law is from PG and she still has her OG Penny 2s and she was like back when those dropped and the Penny 1s ppl was on them wayyy more than the Jordans at that time.
they are cool but ill boycott until the <200 price drop.. I'm trying hard to get some china's for about 400.. thats the priceUSD 280.. and shipping.. which i know will be like 50-75 bucksI saw the dark obsidians today a real sleeper prob my fav shoe in this current 'allstar' month.
oh yea i kno Richmond and other spots were def wearing them heavy, but ppl would say "them dopes tough" in Bmore, a NY dude mighta said "them foams is crack" I remember years ago wearing them to visit fam in Jacksonville Florida and every where i went ppl was like "them jonts sweet" i remember i was in a mall down there and the manager in Footlocker knew exactly where i was from because the shoes. He said either Baltimore or DC, back then they wasnt even in stores down there. Now my cousin who just got put on to em in the last 2 1/2 yrs think he got one up on me cuz he got a a pair now LOL

I remember being in cap city up there and i seen a guy with them on at the barbershop.. im sure he was a cope boy.. dude had a prime co phone and a pager..lol and was chopping coversation on the phone while getting a hair cut.. foams were fresh too..my peoples were not going to pay 180 for some shoes..lol nor 170 for the pro's..

have you seen any china's around there yourself... man i wish i was in china to cop those.
The obsidians are dope for sure. They're already out here in Korea, tempted to grab them, but they'd cost me more, so I will grab them on NDC

i talked with my friend out there and i wonder what the lines will be like at the store.. i still dont know what time they are dropping online in China.. as i am trying to do the biggest alley oop of the year..lolThey're only releasing in China.
Korea is a ways from China lol
Thats def what did it for my cousin after the galaxy he was on em, But dudes like the one u mentioned in the barbershop is EXACTLY how they got the nickname up here in Bmore. They were mainly the dudes buying them cuz of the price, I had quite a few pairs in high school and whats crazy is my brother homeboy used to call me "THE DOPEDEALER" cuz he figured i sold drugs since i had a few pairs LOL. Goodtimes tho wish i could go back but it is what it is
