Why so much HATE for this shoe??? everyone likes Flightposites, so a little step down and its abomination. Please explain, i don't get it, they look okayto me.
 
I actually had those in the picture...one of the most uncomfortable sneaks I've ever balled in!

Word fam. They did big numbers. And actually, these came out for the 2000-2001 season. Didn't own a pair then, nor will I now. I guess theysold so well, because alot of people couldn't afford the Flightposite.
 
the ones in store are the Black/grey carbon fiber looking joints. I got them in shipment and wept.......its a sad day in the sneaker world.
 
i had the black/blue pair..i still have em too

these joints are hot..in the right colorways

Cause everybody thought they were the flightposites....you know; all the lil young'ns and shoe-knowledge lackers look at these like, "now theycheaper.."

It was repalicated shoe for a cheaper price. SO they sold more.

Bigger profit.
 
They sold well because hardly anyone could afford flightposites and the $100+ spend on shoes were going to XI's, well that was my recount from 9th grade.

Basically. It's not algebra. Everyone isn't going to pay $160+ for a sneaker so these worked for quite a few people.
