LOL YES!!!!! I became Catholic when I was an early teen and before then (when I went to a Methodist church), we drank from little individual cups. So when I found out at our Catholic church that we drank from the same cup, I did it at first, but then I opted out of going up to the alter altogether. I started going downstairs to the bathroom during that time just to avoid it.Lmao yep! I remember as a kid taking big swings of that nasty Manischewitz with everyone’s backwash
the guy was mistaken and thought the stripped down light bone pair was supposed to be the Lakers/chi pairYea, someone posted that he saw them striped and we'd be disappointed. But obviously he lied. He didn't post the picture.
Definitely some validity to the piece ... surprised they didn’t mention Nike’s bastardization with the NFRs release. I get Nike was trying to ride the partnership for all it was worth particularly with Virgil headed for bigger arguably better things, however would posit the union LA release was a positive outgrowth of the intellectualism Virgil’s collab promised.
Unds today
The og killshots had exposed foam tongues though lol...Nike has beat this dead horse into the ground-NFR, Element React 87s, JDI Air Max, Guava Ice/Olive/Orange AJ1s, and now the branding on the SS19 AJ1s and even the exposed foam on the new Killshots are all O-W style-inspired derivatives in one form or another... Nike is really trying to milk the collab for everything it was worth it seems like. It’s ironic because Nike/JB has the resources to hire some of the best design talent in the world yet they hire people who consistently come out with trash cws that most of us here on NT could actually out-design.

No one who qualifies as “the best design talent in the world” is going to be a low level designer in some back room cubicle in Nike, they’ll have independent notoriety—I.e., like Virgil—and they’ll work through collabs because it’s economically superior for them.Nike has beat this dead horse into the ground-NFR, Element React 87s, JDI Air Max, Guava Ice/Olive/Orange AJ1s, and now the branding on the SS19 AJ1s and even the exposed foam on the new Killshots are all O-W style-inspired derivatives in one form or another...

Definitely gonna get yellow toes and I think thatll cap off the colored toe craze for me. Don't need courts or b/red toes. I still gotta finish my purple chi. Unless there's a rust pink toe in mind I'm off it lol
I think 0takusamsay is just saying IF such a pair came out. Nothing like that is on the horizon, or has even been hinted at, unless I totally missed something.wait so basically these with the toebox rust pink as well?

Thanks my GDamn killed it with the lace swap bro!
I might be in the super minority, but with the talk of people wanting a “Royal Toe,” I really have zero interest in such a pair. I have a couple pairs of Royals, a pair of Game Royals, and a pair of Storm Blues (I know not the same blue but a shade of royal/navyish). But between the Royals and the Game Royals by themselves, a “Royal Toe” is unnecessary IMO.
