These came in today. Wish they had the set of alternate blue laces that the 70s model got. Have to try to track down some to swap in. Needs that pop.

So happy I got forced into gettin those Logic Board Verses posted above dude. Bought ‘em out of desperation from all the space jam kicks selling out on Nike App & wanting a piece of Brons new space jam legacy history. Turns out I LOVE these! Another save by Nike! First time buyin a high top chuck! Got so many kicks, it’s like I’m just buying them to have them to look at. I dunno, I just really enjoy lookin at shoes. Even when I’m lookin at other people’s shoes. It’s like Therapy! 🔥

& still ended up getting all the pairs I wanted that sold out on Nike App anyways from other retail channels.:rofl::pimp:
This was the only SJ pair that interested me honestly. I love that it has the characters on the sides. I missed on SNKRS and was bummed then had thought to look on Converse.com and sure enough FSR.
 
Probably zero chance we ever see a solid run of retro 90s BBall shoes, huh? I would live to see them retro the full energy wave / react juice lines again before I get to old to pull them off lol. I want Aero Jams again, Run n Slams, some proper ERXs, etc.
 
Btw, szs 6, 7, 8.5, 9.5 & 10 of the white/blue ERX OG are on sale at Nice Kicks.


Use promo code RMNSNK15 for 15% off and TopCashback for 5% back. Came to $75 shipped before cashback.
 
Is there a difference between those and the ones I could buy at the mall?
Not a whole lot to be honest. Probably not worth it to some, but I’ve been buying chucks since middle school. Overall not bad. It has a Smaller toe box similar to the chuck 70. Thicker laces as well. I think these are closest chuck mold to the vintage USA ones. They’re definitely More comfy and feel a little lighter. Maybe lighter because it’s not as rough as the regular GR chucks at the store. Sizing wise, since the materials used are a little better, I honestly think I could’ve gone a half size down? I didn’t want to risk it since they came directly from Japan. I just went with my normal sizing in chucks. A little space is alright with me.
 
Hmm, while check my chuck 70, is it normal for them to brown up? They’re starting to look brownish. I don’t remember them having this darkish almost rusty look to them. It won’t come off

anyone else pick up rick chucks? i mean im already a clown but been feeling like i should cut this "extended" toe off, like i got dem extended toe paisa boots on brehs no offense
 
Yea I did both, but those who are still holding out there will be a 2nd drop with the colors inverted for each respective hi / low versions.

Why do you want to cut the toe cap? That's exactly what makes it special & if you are not comfortable with that design element then I would advise you to not kop. Still..this is Rick at his most receptive for the 'common man'. Reading the comments on IG was entertaining tho.

I wish he was still with Adidas tho.

Two minor quibbles:
1) I don't underatand why they had to get rid of the old Energy Wave branding
2) I wish they had longer/better laces. These are short, thin and cheap

Unless I'm missing something, that's the usual finish of the Chuck 70 midsole and toebox, a glossy off white color.

Yeah, it was an off white-ish midsole, but mine looks way darker in person. Almost tan. Haven’t used them in almost a year though. Aged pretty weird
