take a step back and see that its just a sneaker. if it looks good (and this is a good looking shoe) ...buy it wear it. simple as that.
Wait, this is a sneaker forum.. right?? The shoe looks good but it isn't a new shoe. Don't retro a classic colorway and decide to give it a twist. People on the forum are critics because there are classic colorways that made the sneaker what they are. No different from how the black/red 6s or black/red 12s were changed from the original version. Can't blame people for wanting classics back in true form.
Exactly. If you're gonna retro a classic colorway, feel free to do it the right way. I mean, isn't that WHY they're considered a classic in the first place?! Why do an almost right retro? Little details make a huge difference on some shoes, and in my opinion, this is one of them. I don't expect every single detail to be exact on any retro--it just doesn't happen like that. But getting the colors and color placement correct CAN happen without too much effort. Yeah, they're close and they look decent. But for me they're just off and pretty much a nice swing, but a miss. And there is nothing elitist about that, in my opinion. It's called calling a spade a spade.

Don't forget the fact the air unit isn't green on the 2010 Slates. Small detail but it's these details that really made a lot of Nikes stand out in the mid-to-late 90s.
I gotta wonder if they half-***ed the Slates so that they could look more similar to the Comets...How else could the Comets be so accurate and the Slates so off?
