I heard it was because of some lawsuit, but did this happen back in 1989 or did this change in 1999?

Could not be further from the truth. The rubber wings will warp and eventually rip with any reall lacing of the shoes. The hard plastic ones will not. i have the mars iv's and as much as i love them i cant help but hat the cheap rubber wings. The wings on the right side of my right shoe ripped back in 07 while lacing them up. I've never been able to lace them up with confidence. I always have to pull the laces straight through or else they will almost burn their way through the rubber.Originally Posted by Jay1027
The plastic wings break, that's why they changed em to rubber since its more durable but this is just my guess
