have you seen the champagne pros? cough drops? joints feel like gelatin
The mystery "foam" on the rookies, is SOFTER and non modular
like most of the foam on all these new foam releases once they started making 'em in china.....only after the $#!tload of complaints when the champagnes and cough drops release did they "try" to stiffen 'em up more.
Foamposites dont suffer "stress" creases, these rookies crumple like a marshmallow.
yes they do
If you look closely, you can even see the finish is differnt on each, foams have linear striations across the whole material (almost micro-ridged if you will) rookies have a shiny, almost patent like texture to them.
you do know that the actual foamposite material is underneath the finish right?
and lastly for those in denial, these are nike ZOOM rookies, not FOAMPOSITE rookies.
Shoes that utilize the ture foamposite material have FOAMPOSITE in the name, ie, total max FOAMPOSITE, FOAMPOSITE air force one, FOAMPOSITE one, FOAMPOSITE lite. common nike knowledge 101.
i think u meant to say POSITE in the name....and i was that ignorant once, but like it's been said....Lebron IV's, 1/2 cents, Zoom Rookies, Air signature, and the Penny 3 are just some examples
Actually, I trust RockDeep/NikeDealer when he says he talked to someone who assured him that they do indeed have Foamposite material on them.Originally Posted by 23ska909red02

so then we can agree these are not foamposite material then?

wonders if replying to a user will cause more issues
Issues from replying "TO a user"? Absolutely not. Issues from replying "ABOUT a user"? Absolutely. If you need more explanation on what I mean, PM me.
