I didn't expect to hear that. That store usually gets all of the releases over any of the other stores (Finishline, Champs) in that mall unless it is a Finishline exclusive.Originally Posted by Mikey23

I posted that video in here the other day and as you can see clearly from this guys video the 11s are much more lighter blue and glossy then the 07s version. These will definitely change ppls minds about not coping when they see them in person thats for sure, regardless if they have the 07s deadstock or whatever. The slight difference will influence ppl to buy them.Originally Posted by LaceLocka

Is it just me or does the color look better than the old one? Just my taste maybe.

Nobody said anything about 2011s being better wiseguy but all I'm saying is that whoever owns a pair of 07s would get them anyways cuz they are a slightly different type of blue/flavor of royals and you saying you getting them on disco (good luck wit that) clearly just made my point.

I kinda agree wit chu bro. To me they are popping way out then the 07s and do make them look dull compared to the 11s.

That blue-tint sole compliments that glossy blue upper so well. So sexy.

Although the brightness of blues is noticeable when you put the shoes side by side for comparison, I don't think it's gonna matter to most people. I mean were only talking about a couple shades off in the color spectrum. Unless you have someone walking next to you wearing a pair of OG's or 07's, nobody is gonna really notice.

Well said big homie, thats exactly the point I was trying to make. I think a lot of y'all thinking these got the 2010 eggplant treatment but they are actually on point, I mean the shape, gloss, grooves, clear icey bottoms, everything pretty much all in tact. what more can you ask for?!?! all in all I am happy with my purchase, and I'm sure a lot of dudes in here will change their minds if they are thinking about passing on them when they see them in person.

agreed. the average person probably wont even know an 07 wearer has on 07s.
i mean if dudes dont know the difference between 09 and 10 eggplants, why would they know whats good with royals?

THIS......wore my 07s last weekend, and all I kept getting was "Where did you cop those early at?"
Luckily, ONE person said "nice 07s"

***Yawns*** all this sarcasm is boring. I can spot sarcasm just like I can spot a pair of 2007s....Y'all just mad that the 07s value is starting to go down as I write this
I seen pairs go for OD cheap so you dudes need to stop acting like you better then ppl cuz u got them.

i'm pretty sure no one is mad that a pair with a better build and quality is lowering in price because that makes it easier to get 'em
thanks to the "price drop", i was able to trade retro ds Cool Grey XI's for ds 07's which basically translated to me getting my 2nd pair of 07's for the very fair price of $170 shipped after it was all said and done.
it's the people that are out there trying to make the 2011's seem better that are being fooled because they want to buy a ton and flip them for that 2007 money
