Olympic VII's 'For The Love of the Game' (ALL TOPICS MERGED!)

Just got confirmation my FNL is getting them, while waiting for confirmation I may have lost my desire for these. Still got a 10.5 on hold, but I have some Lunarglides 2's and kids shoes on my mind now

I was going to reply to jammin after his comment.

I'm going to be on a plane from 6:45 to 8:30 this friday...

Was a tad dissapointed that i wouldn't be able to hit up a computer in time to cop a pair.

Guess jesus is black after all.

YES!!!

Got my pair today from an Athlete's Foot around the way, manager sold them to me early since I shop with him a lot and he only got one pair for each size. 
No regrets here

word. i will be ready thursday night by 8.. lol  these releases is hard enuff to get as it is plus the time zone bs doesnt help at all. lol but thanks for helpin man. i know its not your fault. god, what would we do without these eastbay reps. footlocker, finshline sure dont got the service like eastbay. both are garbage when it comes to customer service. because they know its just another KID that wants shoes.    

  
 
I've always wanted these. I don't care for the stupid heart sign, illl still cop tho.
JB should've put these in a pack with the olympic navy blue 6's. The "olympic pack" would have been gpoat.
 
1 of my spots aint gettin em. now i am depending on my other spot. if they don't get em i'll just hunt down an '04 pair.

 @ all the people who think theyre so "special" because they have the inferior 2004 version. these look great and people actually hate to admit it.

the logo actually ties into the heart that the Dream Team of 1992 showed. they were one of the best teams of all time.
yea took alot of heart beating on bums
laugh.gif
come on son i seen every 92 game stayed up hella late and $@+% just to see dudes pound on dudes who were worse than the iraqi national basket ball team.

they didnt show heart they showed SKILL. and just how superior they were and how inferior the world was back then.

roll.gif
@ heart

nice try though kid. "inferior"?
laugh.gif
hey wahtever makes you sleep at night

these shoes look awesome... but i aint with that heart $@+% so you can quit with the sideways insults...



Idiots

you mad? dont blame anyone here. you blame dudes who got these heart vii's on ebay for $10 less than 2004 retros... i see no prices being driven up son. sorry




LOL it does take heart to make the rest of the world look like crap in basketball.

I stand by my statement that the 04s are/were inferior. Rock hard pleather and a different shape does not equal a earth shattering release quality wise. But hey, if these didnt have the heart logo, people would still find something to complain about. But if having your 04s makes you feel good and reminisce about the "good ol days", then more power to you bruh. we should all be glad that these olympic viis werent a re-release of the Miro viis

Do you have the 2004's?
i personally dont have them, but have OG Raptors, have had French Blue VIIs, and have CDP Hares. I have also held the 2004's in hand many times. the shape from 2002-2004 VIIs is pretty off and they recently have started correcting the shape. and 04 Olympics have rock hard pleather (doesnt feel like leather to me, but the 2010 version likely won't either). From what I see, the only major differences are that the shades of navy are lighter on the 2010, the 9s face the OG position, and that the grey is slightly darker. The FTLOTG VIIs look like a good retro to me.

  


Figured you were bashing a pair of sneakers you don't own.
