I don't disagree with what your saying. But it could be argued that the Royal colorway I PS'd is extremely lazy. I mean literally the only difference between it and the Banned is that the red is flipped to blue haha. Looks good but still lazy.
A positive is the differing pattern on the ASG compared to others. Maybe they will start mixing it up a bit with the flyweave pattern with future releases. This gives it limitless potential.
IMO the 31s look at their best when the colorway is "very simple" like the Banneds and the Fine Prints.
Once it does some crazy stuff like the Battle Greys, the Chicagos, the Supernovas (aka Knicks), the Rios, and even their rendition of the Shattered Backboards, then it is less appealing TO ME. Other people will appreciate that ****, but I can't deal with them crazy colorways.
I can deal with the N7s and the upcoming "Black Toe-looking" colorway, they are a simple design to me in a sense.
