Spring 2011 SC Trainer colorways (Modern Notoriety via Sneakernews)

TSG brings us info on a new sc trainer colorway:
http://theshoegame.com/ar...ainer-sc-high-volt.html/

PanaRicanRetro is right from the post above. We've seen much worse over the years and no big deal. Maybe people are finally fed up and anything else that we see and deem unacceptable will get called out on. You can't blame us for caring.

The white black volt was on the brink of something cool. But they change some things around and it just doesn't have the flow that other OG colorways have. Easiest pass of my life.

At this point, the only thing we can ask to Nike is NOT to release a foamposite trainer SC, a Jordan SC or an AUTOtrainer SC...

...oh, wait. Too late for these.

Maybe there's no hope for us.

Hope is lost.. It's a comedy festival for me. I think I said in another thread, at this current buying pace of mine, I will be retired from trainers when my 2000 era shoes start to crumble. At that point, adidas, asics, and reebok without even second guessing

Nothing is ever learned. They appear to live in a bubble. First key to failure is the leather quality. If you even can call it leather. Then it seems like they get a memo that says , "get close to OG colorways. but then be creative about changing things up. We don't want these to perfectly emulate the past". But the fact remains, I think we do want perfect replication..
-Dark blue on the "royal blue" 2009 retro.. failure
-Black mudguard creating more of a bulls theme on the "infrared" 2009 retro. The red was called varsity red.
-All leather upper on the raider sc 2009 retro, missing the core suede toebox element. #34 on the back was there selling point
-Beets 2009s weren't too bad. Much like the auburns, they took on a red theme with the straps and all accent pieces. Near perfection. Leather quality was the main downgrade
-Auburn 2009s seemed to suffer the most in a quality sense. Glue stains in weird places, orange paint splatter in various places, toebox wasn't smooth and seemed to almost be precreased. No other models above seemed to suffer as much as this one.

Then they decide to jump over to another Bo model. The SC II has a white/BLACK/orange shoe.. Very close once again. And then the white.grey.lime...
------
Here, it's as if they say, "everything is perfect but lets get some black in there". So out goes the traditional white forefoot outsole and grey mudguard, for what we see above

Here's a quick PS based off of a color change on the BEET trainer sc setup.
Step 1. Beet Accents everywhere

This is step #2. Color change time.. Too much volt in step 1 so we go with black straps:

"That doesn't look right. We need more black". Then goes the black outsole.
"more black" - tongue is turned black.
"More black"- mudguard turns black.
"More black. Let's reverse the plastic lace locks".

Soon you go from being close to original colorways, and it turns into a chain reaction of hell.

Long live the INFRARED

Instead Nike deems these as "close enough" and acceptable:

The hell is this $#!^?
The biggest issue here is the blocking... I guess I can "deal" with a black/volt cw, but that blocking just ruins the shoe. Again, are they trying to justify the jobs of the people that puts out new cw's? Put something new out, but don't make it too similar to the OG's?
