The Flips were a terrible shoe. That pleather lining was the worst, probably less comfortable than the Fire Reds were.

The quality of the flips was much better than the fire reds. I was really disappointed with that and bought the flips instead. They looked like ish compared to an early pair/sample I had seen at FC months before. Although the fire reds are classic, the flips were the best out of the 3 releases that day.

That's the point. If they were using true blue\white NA insoles for it, it must have been intended to rock NA at a certain point in time. Nothing from that era used those insoles (as opposed to say a 2000 Fire Red 5 using surplus OG 11 insoles).

Oh absolutely. Pure 3's and Pure 4's can both drop again and i'd be happy as ****.

Naah. Fire Red's from that year were the worst, no question. But i'll give you that the Flips also weren't the most comfortable 3's either. That being said however, since we're in this age of remastering, there's no reason they couldn't improve on the quality.

I remember buying 3 pairs of 2011 true blue's. I still haven't worn them and now these with the NA release? 
Looks like I might be taking the bait based off nostalgia though. :\

Sell them for retail plus shipping (to people who want to wear them), them would sell fast. That way you can save that money for another release or this release.I remember buying 3 pairs of 2011 true blue's. I still haven't worn them and now these with the NA release?

Anyways, best of luck if the paint doesn't crack. Thick insoles helped with my 2012 BC 4s.
