Give us Taxis! Give us Cherries! Give us Playoffs! In that order.
We're going on 7 years minimum for each of these models. WTF is going on????

I don’t casually throw out the word “need” for a pair of overpriced sneakers but I really need the playoffs to retro again soon. Amazingly never owned a pair.
You still wear all 3?All 3 of my OG colorways are still in great condition. Just need my Cherries reglued though.
Something about the OG breds and obsidians did that to me. That infrared and shape on the ogs stillI feel the same about cherries. I remember being 8 years old and thinking they were the coolest shoes i have ever seen; I still think they are.

Yup. I found a chick that's going to reglue the toe of my Cherries so I'm not going to wear those again until I get them done.You still wear all 3?
You still wear all 3?
Will any barge cement do ? Or is their a particular type ?I still have all 5 OG colors. Now my Taxis are beat, as I wore them the most (played outdoors in them back then). But my road aways (white/reds) home playoffs, road playoffs and Obsidians are all in great shape other than needing a reglue in spots. I have the Barge just have to watch a video on how to do it right without getting excess glue on the carbon plate. I think it was Vic who used painters tape, traced the pattern, took off the pieces of tape that aren't needed and then glued the soles down. Gonna have to watch it again.
I want OGs and am willing to pay OG prices but ONLY if they’re wearable. Which has been dumb hard to come by in a size 12. Most are cracked.I still have all 5 OG colors.

Thanks for the quick tutorial... I need to reglue my 13s...I have their Infinity Cement. It's the one you see on all the restorer's videos (Vic, John Manalo, Etc).
For example, if the rubber sole is completely off the midsole, you need to clean off all the old glue from each piece. Then, apply a layer of cement on the sole and midsole. Let it cure for 20 minutes or so. Once it's cured, all that is needed is heat (a heat gun or hair dryer on high)to activate it and have each half adhere to each other. A little clamping down (taping the soles tightly) is a good idea.
