noice!! How come u havent iced out your og's and the others?

my OG's.. RIP.. the sole is in good condition but it would need barge cement and a killer restore job since the nubuck is done.. they died on me early.. the 07's.. shoes in great condition.. if i can find a sole to swap to (even if i buy a GM and swap the sole) i could do that and would rock them even though NT peeps would clown me for that and would say things.. id be like this is my restoration job here..lol the 07 sole theres a portion that came off from when i had to do something silly on one of the ATV's.. so they would need new soles.. One day i may do a full restore and post pictures..

Hmmm... this barge cement stuff, might have to check it out. All this time I've been using Shoe Goo. It's okay but I hate that I get varying results when used and it can be a little messy. Definitely putting barge cement on my pick up list this weekend.

barge infinity cement. Make sure it's the green can. It dries clear.

Never had the previous Royal releases but these will be in heavy rotation. Might jump a on second pair because I think I've found my new daily work shoes.

Aside from normal wear and tear, do foams typically last a lifetime?

I wouldn't say a lifetime

 

[xwestbullyx]

Never balled in foams before but now I'm a believer.

Hooped in the 2011's last year in an all day 3 on 3 tournament (pic below), all while playing 3 games straight into the championship. 11's felt/feel real good on court, gonna have to get some runs in the XX's.

Older foams...like 01/02 they can last you a long time. I have royal pros that have minor separation and once I fix that, I'm good to go. Imo, that quality foam is way better than what's out now, which is why I refuse to buy newer foams at their current price for the most part. When I first started buying years ago foams were tanks, you had foam fans, but I never felt the need to have 5 pairs of foams because they lasted so long. Now, not so much the case. I regret so much throwing away my black foam pros from 01 over minor toe cap separation

that's to be expected, but that's a problem you see after 10+ years of owning that shoe. Idk but if you condition that part of the shoe after about 6 or so years, it should extend it. For me, the cracking doesn't bother me, just shows you had them for a long *** time, and if you get to that stage, you've done well with the shoe if that's a main problem.

Yup, only gripe I had.

Edit:
beh235 valid point.

[beh235]

I guess it depends on how you wear it. I've seen so many variations and degrees of wear on the same shoe, there's no set pattern or time on what happens.

 

[Deleted member 107398]

Thanks for the input guys, this is my official first pair of Foams...

 

[xwestbullyx]

Wish I had waited, too lazy to return my Nike pair. Oh well.

But Nike makes it insanely easy to return

They really do. Take the label out of the box they came in, tape it up, slap the label on it then take it to a UPS store or UPS mailbox in your area.

Or take it back to any nike store.

The suede part is def a failure point but use def plays a role too. I wore my 02 pearls a month ago I think.
