where have you been? bootleg foamposites have been out for a minute. along with the foamposite max.
Making sneakers widely available has nothing to do with bootlegs. Bootleggers copy whats hot regardless of GR or limited release

Oh yeah I know......but the more hype the more bootlegs...not sayin that there not around...but more are coming....I done seen alot more fakes on feet in the last couple of days than ever...lol....I seen a dude with fake coppers on this morning....I luv the fact that they become more popular...just don't want to see em become corny as someone else said earlier..I'm hopin I continue to luv em the same that's all

I remember black in 97 when these and da playoff 12's dropped. i was tight they cost so much & I settled on da playoffs my first pair of jordans thanks to my dad hooking me up for graduating middle school. Man those foams were just beautiful. I end up get a pair of pearl pros @ an outlet for 90 and this time I passed on da playoffs
. Didn't like any other cw beside pearl pros, penny, eggplants & coppers. Still didn't get my coppers yet but looks like Nike got all my favs dropping this year ...... thanks Nike.

I got some blue fakeposites off of ebay 3 months ago. Got my money back and now they just sitting somewhere in my room collecting dust. Idk what to do with them. Any ideas anyone?
As far as topic goes foams keep their mold for the most part....that is where JB messes up the most imo. Seeing Jordan og's transform into some slanted in the back, lower cut, pre-wrinkled, banana toe having sneakers isn't a good look. May as well say they push out fakes. JB should stick to the original blueprint the people fell in love with. OG's don't last forever

I'll agree with this. The quality on a pair of foams is much better than Jordan Brand will ever put out.

its not foamposite, da process to make da sneaker is too hard for bootleggers to copy so they just use
synthetic materials and they forego tryin to even attempt at putting some actual carbon fiber....

they look exactly like the fake foams above, just blue though. Nothing close to the real thing. Panels are flimsy and Carbon fiber is like a blk/white checkered board.
