OFFICIAL: Air Trainer 1 Mid Premium aka "Chlorophylls"... paging Wallyhop....

[superblytrife]

I haven't touched them. I seriously do not like that shiny leather at all but it's a personal preference, not necc. a knock on the shoe. You can have them for a reduced rate for all I care . Shoot me a line via email (john.gotty at gmail)

I'm definitely trying to line up two pr of Chloro's though. Quality be damned.

Damn homie....that bad that you're willing to lose money? Damn lol. Appreciate the offer sir, but I think you got those big *** feet, if memory serves me correct.

Regulars/oldskoolers,
If we could, lets try and keep the early drops to "ourselves" and via PM as opposed to posting info in the thread. It would be helpful to those who want them ahead of time or without major hassle and have been waiting for years versus those who have popped in and out just looking for "is this limited, and how much are these going for on ebay" kinda riff-raff. Believe me, most of us know the difference. Just sayin. We went through the same hoops initially with trainer sc2 thread and it would be nice to get these taken care of without a ton of hassle. TIA

So are we doing this?

So are we doing this?

Guess best thing to do would be figure out who is in what region and possible stores/drops in their area. If we get say 5 East Coast, 5 south, 5 midwest, 5 Central/Texas, and 5-10 or so West Coast NTers that can cover their region/possible spots and update the rest of the group, then that may work.

I can try and organize a list and keep people in the know and if someone else cares to help that would be great. I don't wanna make it exclusive, but probably a cap @ 50-60 would be good initially unless the interest is far greater than I know.

Anyone has thoughts feel free to let myself or anyone of the other familiar regulars know.

Really hoping this release goes like the QS Trainer SC II's.  Time will tell...

 

[wallyhopp]

I still might have a list of shops who had the trainer sc II qs's if someone wants it and is willing to call etc. most of the time however they said they didn't know they'd be getting these until they had them or just days before release. So a crazy effort now three weeks early may be for nothing

 

[superblytrife]

^ word....I've already called/emailed a few shops that would most likely carry a release like this, and they all said they'd know more as the drop date got closer.

Same here, I can think of 2 shops locally that will get them and 2 others that I call all the time. Hopefully it ends up just like the SCII release where I got bent out of shape for no reason.

Kixsquare has a few pairs of both CWs of the BB51s for 79.99, if anybody is interested. Very limited sizes though.

 

[Canadian Destroyer]

Haven't owned a pair of trainer 1's since "04. I went a half size up back then. Not sure if I should do the same with these. DSS has my half size up, Im sooo tempted right now.

 

[skip2mylou23]

I'm assuming tier-0s would be a good start.

 

[bip roberts]

Totally missed the post about DSS. Eh, w/e. I want these, but I'm worried about the quality too. So, I'm mad but not mad.

 

[slimkid1122]

official release for these is october 20th

 

[jada2001retro]

I just got a ton of VIP Rewards that I will be using on them at Champs.

It came from a paid mag source. Not sure how they would feel about it. But I do have some more info on that one

that navy/obsidian... 

 

[tr1ll]

Why does it look like the blue ones have better quality materials than the OGs??

Look at the leather on the straps...

 

[jaysfordayz23]

I DO NOT LIKE~!!!!!!!!!

 

[superblytrife]

Cannot.  Wait.  For.  The.  Chlorophylls.  

 

[bad lieutenant]

New CW is dope... 

 

[Magic33]

Even the black leather part looks cheap

 

[wallyhopp]

I'm eagerly awaiting how these will turn out.. I spotted this photo today.

Im not sure where to place the leather at this point. Looks like shiny basketball leather.
