Speaking of white cements

yea the White cement 4 were looking like low tops, not the military 4s.

And look that white cement toebox, dammnn.
How can Nike call that remastered.

 

[headdetective]

Those WC’s look like a middle school art project

These militarys are somewhat comfy compared to previous og 4s releases....wore them with ease

Wrong thread my b

 

[soggysocks]

I replaced my 2020 fire red 4 with thinner insoles because they were snug. I might just out those insoles into my military because these insoles suck

What's with the widow's peak on these industrials? Does that exist on most pears?

Yes.

 

[Otaku]

It's weird how widow's peaks used to be a sure sign of fakes, but now all of the Nike molds/cuts have them? Strange.

 

[headdetective]

Things that make you go hmmm

 

[pwguy]

And the angle of the mesh used to be a sign of fakes, but then Nike adopted the off angle (vertical) fake design, and now they're back again to OG. Makes no sense.

Peaks are an OG feature so at least that makes sense.

When it comes to manufacturing in China, there are no trade secrets. Fake factories may have found a cheaper/more efficient way to do something and it because something that became adopted by a factory that makes authentic shoes and vice versa. It’s not unheard of for workers to jump back and forth between different industries too taking best practices with them. Skilled labor is skilled labor.

At what ever point it was adopted, maybe not lining up the netting saved them 15 seconds per shoe. Who knows.

Double post

 

[marztharealist]

Here's a few pics of my pairs. All three pairs are LN3, and size 12.5.

Overall, the shapes of the SB's and Black Cement's is VERY similar. However, the Military's height, and mudguards sit a little lower and the toe boxes or a lot boxier.

I have doubles of all of these, but the others pair don't look as good as these. My others are either from LN4 or LMN. My other pair of Military's is a size 13.

Anyway, those are going be the pairs I wear. The pairs in the pics above I'm gonna put keep DS.

[perfectchaosrei]

for those that double, do y'all have large collections or nah? everytime i think about doubling, i realize i wear each pair i own about 3-4 times a year and a double seems hard to justify.

 

[checks mcgee]

well done marz

I did the same

and same size

 

[pwguy]

"Keeping DS" has become synonymous with "rot away in a closet until they either fall apart or you decide to sell". They're not investments; putting the double up money in any index fund will make far more money.

 

[doublemesh96]

I normally don’t keep anything ds past a year. I’ll at least put them on for a quick wear to put some pressure on them. However I just unds’d 2015 hares and they seem perfectly fine

ive never had a double up that i ended up keeping. in theory it makes sense to have a back up pair of a shoe you plan on wearing very often, but i never actually end up wearing the primary shoe so much so that it needs to be replaced. Atleast not in the first few years. ill go through seasons where i have a go-to rotation and then after some time ill switch to a new rotation because the weather changes or i do something different style wise or whatever. so what ever double up id do have never actually becomes necessary for practical purposes.

the only pair im currently seeking a back up pair for is the nuetrel grey 85 lows because they have quicky become my throw on for any reason shoe.

 

[doublemesh96]

The double up forces me to wear them faster. But that’s just me

 

[joshkoshbgosh]

I have doubles of a few, the idea is once the first pair starts looking musty its going on Ebay and the new one coming out.

 

[checks mcgee]

I have maybe one pair DS lol
