I do love all flightposites, but I agree, the FP2's are easily the weakest out of the three.. Comfortable shoes, but not the best design.. They actually rotted on shelves in 2000..I'm in the minority on these, or maybe not. I hate FP2's. I tried them on and they're not right for my foot at all. They were uncomfortable to put on and walk around in. I didn't like switch to the boxy design either. These also sat for a long time. I remember people not wanting the all black cw IIRC.
I tried, I mean I really tried to like them, but I couldn't. I didn't like how they looked on my feet, and I just couldn't cop because it was a FP. So I just have the I's and the III's.I do love all flightposites, but I agree, the FP2's are easily the weakest out of the three.. Comfortable shoes, but not the best design..

Another pet peeve I had with that shoeThe zipper wouldn't stay all the way up but wouldn't come all the way down either. Just like KGs in the pic above. I hated that.
Although I love the FP3, I wasn't a fan of the battlegrounds at all. I disliked the bubbles on those and the CW I liked most was the Navy & Silver. I was born in DC and will never wear the colors of the Dallas Cowboys. I'm hardcore about my teams. Btw vote Wall, Beal for the All Star game fellas. Thanks lol
Exactly. Hell, people hesitated on the first cw @ $160. Not when retro Jordans were typically $125 at the time. I copped the first week they released. If I didn't have a discount, I would have hesitated too.Gold was by far the worse. It was a dull color gold with no pop at all. I believe they got as low as 40$ few places. They may have the crown for the most discounted posite ever. The Plats were ok and a nice shoe to have for the collection but 250$ retail back then for those wasn't happening. Talk about foreshadowing things to come.
Not the shox stunner? I'm still lookingHey does anyone remember the name of a 120$ shoe that was black & red with 2 non adjustable straps. The straps weren't see through but I'd say they were a clear color, if that makes sense. They dropped the week right before the black/blue FP3 did. I had a pair but can't remember the name to save my life.
I can't think of them, when I do, I'll post it. I miss the lil extras too, I used to steal themIt wasn't them. I had the white navy's. They need to bring those back. Very comfortable shoe. The ones I'm talking about were all leather and the straps were attached to the side of the shoe. Each strap split in two thin pieces on both sides. I can picture em clear as day. Tried to find a pic but don't know the name. Lol.
I'll check the book Sole Provider and see. I used to take the rubber jordan wristbands from the wack jordan models and keep em. I used to take lacelocks tooLol at snatching the side goodies. Cool. The straps were plastic too I think. Wasn't a very popular shoe but the type you had to own to appreciate.

Air Max Duncan ? I dont think there was a white/red colorway though.It wasn't them. I had the white navy's. They need to bring those back. Very comfortable shoe.

It wasn't those either. It's kinda hard to explain but the straps went right across the shoe just like the FP3. I'm gonna see if I can find a pic.TO each their own... I think the 2s are alot better than the 3s. IMO the FP line got progressively worse each version released with 3 and 4 being tied for ugliness.

Wow, I never heard of Shoetrends ever doing that. I was talking about the olddddd Shoetrends, not the one that they revamped. Anyways, that sucks. Back to reminiscing about that old days haha.
Yeah - I was surprised as anybody.
And, yeah they were around for a while and were great. Then, they like disappeared and then came back in like '08 or something like that. Then they turned into deadstockkicks or something like that.
