Holiday '10: Nike Air Go LWP Returns

[nike air go lwp]

Yes, it is a PE pair, similar to how GP &JKidd had this version with a Pine Green rather than Royal Blue accent. As this is my favorite Nike Basketball shoe, I am happy to share and hope others do as well!

If any of you follow @drew.hammell on IG (he used to be @nikestories until IG mysteriously deleted his page. Dude has great content). I sold him my pair of black Zoom GO LWP retros last year. He loves them & has been posting lots of pics of them.

That is cool, I like Drew’s work and hope there is a wave of momentum building that Nike prepares a solid 30th Anniversary Retro campaign. There is plenty of time to make something happen and do it right
I think they have a group here willing to share feedback and insight

I've got a deadstock pair of the black Mitch Richmonds (believe I posted pics previous). Over 25 years later they still look so great you would think you can STILL hoop in them.
Been said many times but would be great to see these get released again, with all new 90's PE colors and not JUST the ones we always see. But take what you can get!

Happy Birthday to Tim! He has lots to be celebrating, glad he is getting his recognition

Did I post my blurb here on how I think this should have been a sig/premium shoe?

Its performance on the court was better than any shoe Nike made that year.

I think people wanted visible air bubbles or an Air Jordan, that could be why these weren't mainstream.

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

I wish I had gotten two of these, they were on sale and they were a common-sense colorway, grey and black.

I passed and am still ok with that choice Sad to see the cracking along the forefoot...thank you for keeping this thread alive. NIKE, let us know if we can help with any decisions!

About the only BLUE CHECK I care about

 

[OGponson]

I remember there was an ad with the phone number in the source magazine and I showed my homie and my magazine ended up getting passed around the whole cafeteria lol that’s how we found out about shoes

 

[jigga boi]

I rocked the OG color retros for hoops and wore them until the soles were done, what a great bball shoe. Hope they release again.

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

I knew this was an elite shoe when a buddy of mine got the OG black-royal AND the black-white back-to-back as his school shoes.

This was unheard of back then because of so many different models being released. Jordans, Barkley's, Huaraches, Deon's, running shoes, etc.

We always tried to grab the latest stuff. Getting two of the same model was REAL commitment.

G.O. time approaches. At 11.5 oz, it is appropriate to celebrate this memorable silhouette on November 5. With 2024 approaching, the 30 year anniversary of the NIKE Air G.O. LWP is upon us!

I just saw a pic of the white-red Air Lambaste, I forgot they existed.

A cool partner to this shoe utilizing similar tooling and design elements…really hoping NIKE brings a retro as the 2010 pairs have all but disappeared.

Would you say the Lambaste felt like it had the same cushioning and traction/grip as the Air Go? I thought it did.

I never actually owned either the Lambaste 1 or 2 so hard for me to say…I always liked the exposed Air Unit on the outsole of the LWP and back then stuck with that model. I have heard many stories matching what you are saying and to see NBA players rock lows back then, the shoe had to be a performer!

Damn fellas I thought there was some news on a release. Got an og pair of the Lambaste I got off eBay for like $20, ten years ago. Had to dig for ‘em since I saw the posts. But again, this leather is what sneakers nowadays get an up charge in pricing for. Just think, this is a takedown of sorts, with better materials.

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

The Lambaste was so nice I bought a used pair off someone back as a kid first time in my life.

 

[brian blades]

Broke mine out today…


These and Playoff (BRed) XIs my top two all time. Nostalgia is one helluva drug

 

[5o'clockShadowBoxer]

Had these up until about 2018

One size too big though.

I hope there is a retro soon
