"However, to say that these will end up in the bargain bin, simply based on the cheetah or hologram prints is a bit misguided. Even the dope colorways they put out on the 96 ended up in the bargain bin, so I think it's less an issue of what the shoes look like, and more an issue of people not knowing, either about Fila as a whole, or about these models in particular. I've seen maybe one other person in recent memory rocking a pair of 95's. I don't know that I've seen a pair of 96's in-person, beside my own. There were a few models of both the 95 and 96 at Finish Line and Foot Locker, but none of the dopest colorways. Those you had to search a little harder for. I'd say that most kids these days don't care about the hunt, they just want to go into a store and walk our with a fresh pair of kicks. Seems that if Fila can't make their presence known there, they're going to continue to release stuff that ends up in the bargain bin."
TheShoeWizard hit the nail on the head through the wall! This applies for other brands like Reebok. You can't expect the brand to buy new moldings for production of other OG silhouettes when the OGs released are selling under $60. The moldings are upwards of a $100k from what I heard.

I remember how kiddfuture said that the Mashburn's were going to look exactly the same as the OG's from the 90s did. But I seen in Fila's instagram this pic of Soulja Boy in Fila's booth at the agenda show in Las Vegas and you could clearly see the Mashburns behind him and the midsole doesn't look like the midsole from the OG pairs from the 90s, in their description it says that's their SS2015 and FW2015 lines. I guess those of us who wanted the Mashburns to come back out again and looking like we traveled back in time cause everything looks identical that you cant tell the difference would have to settle for these new 2015 Mashburns with the changes done to the midsole smh.

If there is considerable change to an old school classic i wont buy it. I see alot of you settle for butchered retros. Not me.
And i dont care what brand it is. If you are gonna butcher a classic you might as well not bring it out again
14 years ago it use to be that seeing a jumpman on the back of a jordan retro was the only design change you had to worry about
And thats nike. But if your going to change the entire design or alter it thats a no go.
Reebok is probably the best at retroing their products right now and thats kind of mind boggling considering they are owned by adidas who cant seem to retro their own damn shoes correctly
Very disappointing.

As long as the midsole graphic is White on Black, I am on board.

Looks like they've gone ahead and reversed the mid-sole colourblocking. I'm certain at this stage, it's a cost cutting move based on the fact that their shoes have to be blown out.

If the Mashburn comes out and has those changes on the midsole. I'll still buy it cause it doesn't look horrrible at all. I give it a 9 The OG version from the 90s is a 10. Now if FILA would of made some really noticeable changes on the Mashburns that would of been a NO on that. 2 Prime Examples are like how Nike in 2012 butchered the Nike Air Diamond Fury and Reebok in 2012 butchered the Reebok Blast. If something like that would of happen I would of been like hell nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Which one exactly, I have both Mutombo ll and Streetball ll, and both are close to horrible, only the deep discount saved them.

The running retroes have been spot on so we're the rivalries and conductors

Unfortunately all the basketball ones, and the ones that I really cared about were butchered.

He is probably referring to those horrible monstrosities that they created back than to kind a represent the Blast and that awful Kamikaze lV or whatever they named it.
