I posted pics of both like the day after HOH..... But to everyone saying these are wack, its understood they aren't the 02s, now if you accept these as anew colorway then you won't feel let down. Lastly, when the he77 has a foam colorway with a icy bottom sat on shelves, cmon guys... get off the pipe. Noway these would have sat in any big city.

I was being sarcastic though.
He made a blanket statement, I thought it was hilarious that that was his logic.
Good looks Sylvester.

I wore 'em to House of Hoops a few times and stunned some staffers. Guess they figured all their stock was cannon fodder for resellers

Not true at all. I could've had a pair from HOH but after the pics I gladly passed. I'll take my 02 pearls with their yellowed soles overthese any day of the week. I think most of the people hyping this shoe up are the one's who missed out on real pearls and now are trying to convincethemselves that these are just as nice. It's ok really, but don't expect those of us who can see clearly to agree lol.

Let me get this straight....
There's an almost 100 page thread for these poor excuses of a retro?
I'm not even a Foam head like that, but these look AWFUL. And don't try to tell me "you have to see them in person". Naw homie, the coloron these is atrocious, at best.
Nike FTL again.

And btw, no hate in my previous statement.
I just don't think there is any way you can call these Pearl retros. The color totally throws these off.
