got to hold these today and they are very nice quality wise, a must cop! the only thing that would make them amazing would be the removal of the stupid heart thing but it is not that large so thats good

You aren't speaking from a position of knowledge. You don't have people who actually have the kicks saying they're cheap or pleather, but hey you know more about my kicks than I do.
Also you supported my theory. A lot of dudes up here bash prior releases they don't have. That always amuses me.

the logo actually ties into the heart that the Dream Team of 1992 showed. they were one of the best teams of all time.come on son i seen every 92 game stayed up hella late and $@+% just to see dudes pound on dudes who were worse than the iraqi national basket ball team.
they didnt show heart they showed SKILL. and just how superior they were and how inferior the world was back then.
@ heart
nice try though kid. "inferior"?hey wahtever makes you sleep at night
these shoes look awesome... but i aint with that heart $@+% so you can quit with the sideways insults...
you mad? dont blame anyone here. you blame dudes who got these heart vii's on ebay for $10 less than 2004 retros... i see no prices being driven up son. sorry
LOL it does take heart to make the rest of the world look like crap in basketball.
I stand by my statement that the 04s are/were inferior. Rock hard pleather and a different shape does not equal a earth shattering release quality wise. But hey, if these didnt have the heart logo, people would still find something to complain about. But if having your 04s makes you feel good and reminisce about the "good ol days", then more power to you bruh. we should all be glad that these olympic viis werent a re-release of the Miro viis
Do you have the 2004's?
i personally dont have them, but have OG Raptors, have had French Blue VIIs, and have CDP Hares. I have also held the 2004's in hand many times. the shape from 2002-2004 VIIs is pretty off and they recently have started correcting the shape. and 04 Olympics have rock hard pleather (doesnt feel like leather to me, but the 2010 version likely won't either). From what I see, the only major differences are that the shades of navy are lighter on the 2010, the 9s face the OG position, and that the grey is slightly darker. The FTLOTG VIIs look like a good retro to me.
Figured you were bashing a pair of sneakers you don't own.
I don't think you need to own the shoes to have an opinion on them. Seeing them in person and holding them is enough for me to formulate a opinion on quality for me.

IMO i still think the 04's felt like pleather. The White/Green IVs that dropped a month prior felt like hard pleather too. I'm not saying my opinion is right, it's just how I feel. I think the 04's had more changes to them than the FTLOTG VIIs. But you and everyone else can do what you want, ill be buying my pair Friday morning.

Here's mines, just purchased them today. If anyone had the olympic 1's, there pretty much similar to those in terms of the type of materials use and quality wise...which is pretty good.
