Sorry if I get a bit off the topic here...
But we got our shipment of Griffeys in today and the boxes are "new". With Nike taking steps toward being a more green company, they have slightly altered the composition of the boxes. The boxes look similar to the brown NSW boxes, but they are lighter, apparently made of less cardboard, and as a result, a bit more flimsy. I'll post pics in a bit.
Kudos to Nike for taking a step towards being less wasteful, but at the same time... these boxes rip apart pretty easily, and already... its kinda annoying... but again.. if it means less waste, im all for it... just gotta deal i suppose.
Shoes itself look great

Man, I stack my boxes.
Please don't tell me these are like the old school Reebok joints.
And NO props to Nike... Greener means cheaper in this instance.
It's ALWAYS business at the end of the day, no matter how its flipped...

Call me crazy but I'm more excited about these than any other shoe coming out this month! I love the Griffey 1! For anybody interested I stock located the grey/orion griffey 1 at my store(footaction). Those and freshwaters are $100 and I have ordered both for quite a few people in different sizes so check into it!

So heres a comparison shot btw these two boxes... I find it strange that the Elec Green box isnt the same as the Griffey box, seeing as how they drop AFTER the griffeys... I suppose it depends on where it was made? But you can already see how flimsy the new boxes will be seeing as how they are not reinforced like the older box.
I didnt post a comparison pic other than the one up top... well cus.. lets face it... im taking pictures of a box here... not what was in it.. but just the box.
These corners are gonna be a problem... you can believe that.
mmmm yummmm

Like did you really just post that in a thread dedicated to the shoe??????
If you place the red Nomos next to these, the Griffeys are better in style and quality. Go check out the Nomo thread and see all the comments about how crappy they are.....I am still beside myself you even asked the question in this thread.
