If the price was the same between the Vapormax 2023 and Scorpions, which one would you guys go for?
 
For $250 i’m getting some next% with some actual technology. My take is scopions are their take at a chunky shoe.

Out of curiosity I do want a pair but not at $250 which is $270 with tax.

Scorpions and Next% are two totally different shoes for different markets and different uses.

Correct and my $250 ain’t going to Scorpions.. If ima buy a chunky shoe for comfort I might as well go really ugly but truly feel like i’m on air.. i can’t find my 2022s 🤦‍♂️ must be in the garage….

Yeah i just see $250 and my brain works different. As even Jordans continue to creep up to $210 and $225 for general releases it makes me ponder just buying less and going designer and my shoe made is in Italy and is actually high quality.

I hear you, but I didn't pay $250 for mine and wouldn't pay $250 se we agree.

Thanks for the response guys.
I should eleborate a bit. A friend of mine works at Nike and was willing to gift me a shoe for my birthday.
He mentioned that after his discount the Scorpions come out to be $150 while once the new Vapormax 2023's drop, most likely it would be about $126.
So at $150 Scorpion to $126 Vapormax, what would you guys go for?
 
mrpuddles mrpuddles - dang, that's a nice gesture. Kinda tough to pick, but I'd choose the one with the better chance of wearability, in which I'd probably have to favor the VaporMax for. That's just me though.

Speaking of VaporMaxes... Okay Nike, there's some bit of redemption being done right here. I see you.

Anyone picking the Scorpions over the Vapormax is definitely under 5’6. 😂
I'm 6'2" and like I replied earlier, I prefer the Scorpions. They're definitely distinct but have a clean look to them and don't try too hard (neither do the Vapormax; I just think the Scorpions look better.)
