happened to me too yesterday on my first wear. But you know what they're sneakers, they're gonna crease. Just wear it and enjoy them.

The inner sock def. makes them tight, went up .5 size on mines & I'll use my force fields to prevent creases.

^^^^^^^ These really dont crease that bad, it has to do with the way the toe box is constructed. Also the laces are meant to get stuck in the holes; itssupposed to keep a lock down fit, the trick is to pull the laces to the outside half of the lace locks.
Any bay area sightings on these yet.

The worker at the store told me a few people had complaints about the fit/cushioning. He said they didn't feel right himself.
Tough. I really like this shoe too.

These have the same midsole as the 2006 version of the 2 Strongs: They're fairly poorly cushioned all round, and narrow too, causing considerablediscomfort.

Dang, is that the same wit the Air force Max B's?
- 70,049
- 24,223
i dunno bout 2 strongs, cuz da strongs are missing da second chamber of air on da bottom
then again...da air 2 strong retros were ALL over da place in terms of how they were manufactured...
these above had air bubbles similar to air force max b barkleys with no second chamber on da bottom.
then they changed it to da original bubble with da seams and da second chamber returned.
then they changed it again to da ones wit no seams.

Yeah, the air cushioning is not comfortable at all. I ended up putting them on ebay, and will probably take a 10 dollar loss on them. Its the exact samemidsole as the air strongs from 06 or whenever they retro. They did a horrible job on that shoe by the way. Suprisingly here last week, I bought a DS pair ofOG Strong 2 mids, firm midsole, clear air unit. They are very very comfortable, just how I remember them back in 95 when I had them for the basketball team.
The main problem with these retros is the secondary air unit. On the OG's and 03/04 retros you can really feel them with your foot. Hell, when you putyour hand inside the shoe, its feels like a big ball. Thats virtually non-existant on the recent retros or any ones with the newer air units.
