This is where the 1/24 release date came from. This is a cropped email from Nike to my bro.

I put these laces in all my kicks. I think they look particularly good in the ATC Huarache...View media item 754860

One disappointing thing about this shoe is the price point for GS sizes. On most shoes anything below a 8 is a lower cost, I was a little confused as to why there was just one price.Â

I thought GS was 7 and below and they usually make a 7 mens and 7y.

Ha that replica was just awful. I still have no idea why Nike didn't just make it like the go when he wore it as a tribute. I have that black lava shirt brand new, one of my grails. I hope Nike starts bringing back all of his old gear.

Nike has never been able to duplicate Andre's success with other tennis athletes. His gear will never be matched by any current pro.

They couldn't with Sampras, he wasn't very marketable and wore the same kicks for years upon years refusing to change.
All the current stars are foreigners, they won't push kicks.
And there has been a shift in tennis shoes. There have lil to no casual appeal now

Also the current pros don't have the look at personality like Andre had. They had to create the ballistec line which incorporated some inspiration from Andre's old shoes.

^ Agassi certainly played his part in making what Nike is today. Â He joined them in the late '80's and everything just blew-up in the 90's... for both of them. Â
I might have posted this in here before, but here's the story on his reunion with Nike.

^ I don't post there that often though... not really a well-managed forum IMO.  Too many overlapping threads.  10,000 Fed/Rafa/Nole bashing threads... plus another 10,000 Fed/Rafa/Nole racquet-setup threads.  Their gear-section is good and informative though... with lots of contribution from members in the industry.Â

I have been on TT for 5 years this spring, and I swear it just continues to get worse. I just stay out of the General Pro Discussion. I like the clothing discussion but with Nike's long standing prohibition of posting catalog images, it's a lot less interesting.

Where did you get those laces at? I have the GITD Force 180 Mids that I wouldnt mind using those on.
