 Same with my pair. It doesn't bother me. If they become solid cool, I like them either way.

I had to cop 2 pairs of these. It would be nice if other foams go on sale like these and the pearls.

all the hate on these but people were BEGGING nike in 07/08 to release TRANSLUCENT black/red foams

glad people slept. was able to a get a couple pairs for dirt cheap and will pickup 1 or 2 more later on

solid reds were so much better though....hind sight is 20/20

ftr, ppl such as myself def. complained about the '07 black/reds. i scoffed at them as well as cactus'. i hated the solid soles, i really did (or so i thought?). i wanted translucent soles. in baltimore, in '07-'08 both pairs were basically discounted down to about $100. literally SAT on shelves! i STILL didn't cop. in hindsight, it was def. pretty foolish no matter how u look at it.

anyway, fast forward to whenever the "cough drops" 1st released as HOH only, i went to PG and copped. honestly, i was INSTANTLY disappointed, but i copped anyway. afterall, they had finally granted us our wish of translucent soles so how could i possibly not cop?? so i waited in a line of over 100-200 ppl. but as i finally was able to get in the store i had to go thru several boxes to find a pair that looked even remotely acceptable. the pair i got i wasn't even really happy with as far as the "indentations" and quality, but they looked better than the previous 4-5 pairs i had just looked at and there was still a ridiculously long line of folk waiting to cop. now, i know there are those here that will say, "oh that's too picky", ..."always crying about quality", "blah, blah, blah..." but when i'm spending 2 bills on whatever i wanna make sure it looks and is the way it should be. in short, i had just then realized this was in fact NOT what we had all asked for. it was a cheap-looking, sloppy, poorly executed "rendition" of what we all knew it should have been. the molds...

. the "indentations", or lack thereof

like i said, i was the fool really b/c regardless of all that i still copped..


all that said, i just copped a fresh '07 pair from an NTer so there will be no need to keep these "couphdrops", def. not appreciated.

(end rant)

I think the exact opposite, after coppers, eggs, royals, pearls and pewters, ive had my fill of clear soles. Keep it 100, if youre wearing these, youre not looking forward to the session glowing process. These are/were welcomed due to a non-clear sole and at a steal of a price.
