These don't age in the box, so, not surprising that his pair is an original, wearable, and look like the first day they dropped...

lol, stop gassin these dudes, these joints came out in like 2002, there's no way a shoe is still sitting for retail 10 years later except for that RARE mom-and-pop store that just doesn't get rid of anything, and I mean that's RARE especially nowadays in the internet/ebay age.  About 10 years ago you'd find that sometimes cause the owners wouldn't be up on ebay seeing what their stuff was worth.

I want the 1st series of these but these not all that bad themselves

the rubber straps def. DO age in the box. Broke out a pair of battlegrounds not that long ago and found out the hard way

Remember that post where people were saying to paint the clear pods on the sides with a marker? I remember I painted mine orange with my white/royal blue pair (for Knicks colors of course)....such a dope idea at the time

Did same to my gold pair, painted the honeycombs black.

Bought the Gold FP3's and a Tillary Park Battlegrounds tee when they came out. Sold the sneaks, and every time I see my t-shirt now, I get pissed I sold them.

Tried on mine a year ago

I beat my pair to the ground. I need these in the WORST way. I'll go ham if these retro.

i got the gold battlegrounds pair, houstons pair is sick though

 

[bossplaya0625]

Classics but wasnt built for wide/flat foot folks such as myself. Couldnt get that top snap to stay in either. Would still cop another pair if they retroed though lol

 

[beh235]

Still got mine in good shape 

 

[jer23]

man, i've got probably 20 pairs of these in at least six colorways (gold/black BG, blue BG, black/black, black/blue, white/red, white/green, white/black, etc). the only color I never picked up (and I don't know where they released) were the black/red.
of all the pairs I have, I never paid more than $50 for them. that shows how well they sold.

not bad to ball in....if you cut the top strap with the magnet off

 

[ramzs8906]

I wasn't a fan of most of the FP3... Battlegrounds were appreciated but the GOATS were

(another NTers I think) 

But all this talk about Allan Houston in Flightposites got me thinking about my favorite pair that he wore

FP3's?

I thought they were too comfortable. The zoom was too soft for basketball IMO

 

[mjsaver]

I still regret being a total cheap @%$ and trying to negotiate with some dude on eBay for a white/gray pair.

Bout 2 years ago before the foam explosion, under a hundred bucks too...haven't come across any colorways for a decent price since.

 

[finnns2003]

Man I love these. Still wear my White/Green pair sometimes. Should retro them.
