they can not make tubes either , you will have to make do with transistors. look at the poor state of the remaining company of cassette decks. they made better cassette decks in the seventies.
technology gets lost, and the knowhow .companies move on.
also it cost huge sums of money to brick back...
size 13 vs size 7 . they are not the same size , the airbag, however, is the same size. the brain gets fooled into thinking the smaller pair has a bigger air unit and the bigger pair has a smaller one ,while in fact they both measure 7,5 cm long.
They should keep the name how it was ,do the...
the translucent rubber pieces covering the airbag and being part of the outsole design, on the original outsole. the retro does not seem to be constructed that way. no biggie or deal breaker to me.
the size is also important , because of the scaling from small to big.
I have many sizes of all og cw's .the smallest og's use the same airbag as the biggest og's ,so none are the same because the shoe is bigger or smaller but the airbag not, can you believe it? I will show you in the next...
this side is really thick ,but bear in mind this is a worn 30 years old, pair. it is far from deadstock, nontheless the new retro looks pretty darn good ,if you consider how bad they could made them judging from the previous retros.
to be fair : you are using the inner part of the retro and comparing it to the outside of the og . use a pic of the inside of an og ,that would be more fair to compare.
the uppers are stitch for stitch it seems , but the outsole is not entirely og specs ,I believe. and why I was a bit sad about it , but it is much closer ,real close minus the og translucent flaps ,they just went for the optical correctness again not for complete technical correctness. fine...
thanks for being in my corner , but it's all good, no need to .... we all know the model by now lol.
plus that guy has got them all of late in one single pic ,lol ,really no need for me anymore.
