What are we looking at again?

 

[crumps brother]

Are 12s still wearable ? Haven't worn my raiders since then lol

Yes, wearing them right now

 

[kham]

What are we looking at again?

Quality equation, satisfying buttery leather, rusting and deoxydized plastics, and also a damaged midsole repaint

Yes, wearing them right now

The tongue on that release looks about the same height as the tongue on this year’s release, if not shorter.

This years release is great , if you pass up you will regret not buying

Seriously, where the hell are these at?!?!

That’s why I went ahead and paid extra. I couldn’t risk it. But don’t worry with my luck every time I do that there will end up being an abundance lol

They're treating these like the all black Barkleys and the Neon Total Uptempos

The all black Barkley release is what actually made me go head and pay the fee

 

[crumps brother]

the yellow retro plus colorway has always been soo nice. it was such an embarrassment when nike re retroed them without cutting out the back lower grey nubuck piece and sold them as is

 

[ekhunter]

i have the yellow ds size 12, from 2011.

Shut the thread down like its 2003. All of these were but those White/Grey's??? Grails! My childhood is on fire rn had those in 10th grade and made soooo many dope memories in them. Remember meeting this kid who put me on to the Chloro Trainers.

This. That was a debacle in itself. Never had a pair and now when I want shoot, it’s like a whole damn scavenger hunt.

I can think of one pair I had that's not pictured(other than those horrible suede pairs w/ the plaid pattern )...they were mostly white with a little bit of grey and a little bit of orange...don't recall specific names of the grey and orange

I think I had a couple of pairs of them and I know I skated in a pair cause they were beat

anyone have any pics of said pair?

Thanks for sharing Let's send these to Nike as they forgot the correct tongue height... Still can't see the point, decide, Nikes cost killer or designers fault?...

I doubt Nike re-designs the shoe like that, to where they have a designer who is specifying all the dimensions of the shoe. My guess is they have a project manager with a budget, and that person has a list of all the factories that have the equipment and know-how to make SC Trainer Highs. The PM might decide on colors and general material type, and then contact the factories for bid proposals. Maybe they look at samples, but for low-budget retros like these I bet they just select a factory based on price/history/reputation and then go straight into production.
