I guess everyone just likes the exclusivity nowadays.

The motto buy what you like hasn't applied to the sneaker culture the last couple years with the new wave of "collectors" taking part in it. They buy what's cool even if they don't like them just to say they have it.

This. Check how many people bashed foamposite pros before, now it's "even though i don't like pros, i'm copping."

i never agree w/ this kid, but this is exactly where i'm at w/ it. not just foams tho. ALL these cheap $$# sneakers we have all been so eager to overpay for (yes, even at retail).

BUT... i still MIGHT cop these.

i like the green. (passed on the retro blues).

Foams don't really move down here in Houston though, except for the recent retro blue ones that sold out on RD.

But I can essentially go into a mall and still find Pewters, black/electric greens, elec. green pros & pearls for retail.

One Mom & Pop shop even had the Pearls on sale, "2 for $125".

Why did I pass that up?

wow.. never seen a sale like that in LA. Pearls were my 1st foams back in 97 so if I ever saw em on sale 2 for 125 I'd copped instantly that way i can always have a pair for balling .
I wish i would get lucky one day
