12700077, This would be a re-release of a re-release of a re-release Posted by ConcreteCharlie, Thu Jan-15-15 03:55 PM
They did one round of retros that was pretty much true to the OG, including the volume of the Air unit. Then they did another one--including all those fucking hideous colorways--that had a smaller bubble.
Personally I don't think history has been kind to these. I had high hopes for them and the Air Max Uptempo 3 (essentially the same tooling) but they were both shit. Incredibly heavy, astonishingly slippery and they had all these fucked-up decorative elements that served no purpose but to fall apart (all the plastic shit on both models).
I think the OG Pippen colors (white/silver and black/white/red, I guess the white/navy Foot Action ones, too) looked pretty cold at least.
