Make the zipper white and the front of the sole black I would've considered even with the fuzzy interior, recycled material I assume.

white gloves didn't quite make the splash like the black ones did, maybe because alot of people is not really feeling the materials they used on this

Im a little surprised they sold so slow, but think it probably has to do with all the other shoes coming out.
Does anyone have production numbers ? These white/black/greens seem to be alot more limited than the black/white/reds. The black/white/reds were available in multiple FSRs at almost every local store, I was surprised to find out these white/black/greens were not available at alot of the stores that carried the black/white/red and the stores that did get them got a much more limited size run.
I guess it makes sense though..... the black/white/red are no doubt the fan favorite, so producing more pairs and making them more available is a good idea.

Has this been officially confirmed ?
I know Gary mentioned it..... and dont get me wrong, I love the guy...... but judging from statements hes made in the past, I think Nike makes all the decisions and he never really ever knows whats going on with his own shoes.

u know what i personally think the retros look better than the OGs (not quality but looks wise). i like the fact that the black isnt on the toe cap and the bottom pods are white and i think they overall look better minus the inside of the shroud, might just be me but these are sweet and so are the blacks. all others i wouldnt consider

Absolutely love rocking my all black. no one has them and it's a cool feeling when u see people do a double take.
I'm literally wearing my first pair everywhere. 2 pair, I'll be a little more cautious. Lol!!

lol your trippin.... the white toecap makes these look hella cheap and unfinished.
The black toecap/outsole accent completes the original "yin yang" style design... without it they look really off... like some Taxi AJ XIIs with a white sole :x

I think #s were smaller because they knew they weren't going to hit...and by them not being in EVERY spot like the blk/whts they probably thought people were going to think these were limited, it's all in the marketing

That's the only pair I like. Not because it's limited but because the colors flow well and look good. The first two pairs are bland.

As much as the liner bothers me its actually the toe/sole that irks me more..... I think I might try to customize
