Eastbay no longer has these prohibited from discount. Was able to cop today using my 25% gold club discount. Came out to $164.99 shipped

Ah, I should have specifically said the Coppers...
The Knicks are still available here in HK, but the Coppers are sold out.

It's not even just the sole. The materials feel super thin and cheap.

I can just see Nike doing the "re-mastering" of all the shoes they've butchered and correct the issues we're complaining about...And for a higher price of course...
Just release the damn shoes in all its original form so I can replace my OG pairs already...

Why? As a consumer, I can feel whatever way I wish to feel.

As this was the "2014" edition, hopefully the 2015 edition will be altered.
This!!! They feel like fakes compared to the OG.

What retro Nike shoe feels like the OG?...

Retros from maybe 2006 and earlier were basically OG.

You're talking 8-10 years ago, that's more than half of what most these dudes and dudettes have been alive.

No need to stretch it. It's 8 years.
At least with the current foams you have a more solid feel. One would think that nike would have taken what it learned from migrating from Taiwan to China with the material and apply it to the flightposites. A lot of the coppers I have seen were sloppy and all of the fp2014 feel very thin and cheap.

Dude said 2006 and earlier, 8-10 years perhaps. What's being stretched? Smh
My coppers were pretty unsatisfactory quality wise as far as the small details go but I didn't pay what most paid so I'm not trippin. My thing is the complaints can easily be solved, don't buy Nike product. Instead, most buy and complain. Battered wife syndrome.

i hear you on that. I've finally reached the point where i stopped buying. probably why I've been sticking with the newer sig models vs getting retros.
