nike messin up another shoe
^^^^NO THEY DON'T!!
Enough of this "Wale's look so much better" crap. Outside of the solewap...IT'S THE SAME DAMN SHOE!!!
The PewterFoams change color with the lighting. Sometimes it looks more like silver, sometimes it looks darker like gun metal. Sometimes it even looks copper-like.
Peep the Wale vid at 25 seconds. DAMN, they look silver right there?! Not dark like the above pic ya'll keep posting.
Peep the SneakGeekz vid. Looks silver at first. Now check 2:05 when he actually tries them on. Oh @#$%...They dark now.
Same damn shoe except Nike swiched the sole from hard rubber to clear.
Now if your a fan of Foams with hard rubber soles (I never knew ya'll existed before the Wale pics)...more power to you.

Sneakermane's post is on point.
All of a sudden, everybody wants foams without a clear sole?
SMH.

^^^Exactly. Imagine if Wale's sample pair had those clear/icy sole. Then Nike gave us gray/rubber soles for the actual release.....
It would be World War 3 on this forum.
The moaning, groaning, complaining & *****ing would be legendary.
I remember the Cactus Foam fiasco like if it was yesterday.

Like I said before some pairs look better with a clear sole some don't. translucent,
how many people complained about a clear sole when the Wale pics surfaced?
translucent, solid and clear soles should be used dependent on the colorway.

Come on Nike, you know this. You've only been making sneakers for almost 40years. We don't want or need icey soles on EVERY pair of foams. Smh

You forgot some colors, translucent ones like they have on the black and silver 1/2 cents.
A smoked translucent would have been better IMO

Most of the pro's have solid or translucent soles, so why is the idea of anything but a clear sole seem crazy all of a sudden ?
Lots of dudes drool for clear soles, but that doesnt mean EVERYBODY feels the same way.

in hindsight da black and red penny foamposite one's look ALOT better with a solid rubber sole then da re-released translucent red sole.

In the wale pics they didn't look metallicy. But I do stand corrected.
they will be copped, on a disco
imo they would have been better with a sole like the one on wales pair.
