I have talked to quite a few NT bredren lately about the state of NT and serious Topic Discussions over the last few years. Honestly a few of us know it's been lacking in quality and content but instead of me ever complaining because of the new age NT members really only being into the Hype or Reselling aspect of kicks.. Ive only chimed in to disspell rumors or try to provide insight.
By no means am I a Nike guru or knower of ALL things Nike. I do miss the topics that were engaging and didnt need pics to legitimize the information provided.
Topics such as:
The Direction of House of Hoops vs Concept and its Execution
Fakes: How it works, the technology improvements and why Nike hasnt done what it can to improve on stopping them
Leather vs Plastic , Light vs Heavy , Performance vs Casual
Just to name a few. This can be THAT forum without volume 2329823. Have a question regarding something where you dont think it will get lost by millions of pics of the same shoe, someone asking a release date a hundred times or if something runs true to size. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
But I even admit.. Even I miss discussions folks like Dark Chocolate aka Coach Hubie aka AKA would have about his disdain for Nike and love for Adi.. I hope there are enough members still around interested enough to keep a thread like this going.
Or maybe it will be me Vood, and andfattoo etc, keeping it alive lol.
First up: Will Nike EVER go back to the essence of Basketball Performance Shoes having Leather and not making an ultra light shoe the most important factor but making a well put together performance shoe that has stability, comfort, cushion and good looks its priority because it was once good enough?
