Once I heard these nike womens shoes were going to drop in February, I really had no idea whether these were going to be a hit or miss. It had traits people loved such as the Nike branding, the Laser detailing all over the upper. The icy blue translucent outsole. It appeared as if Jordan Brand hit the nail on the head with this release. One they released I come to find out that they were sitting and there was a full size run well after they dropped online. I go to the mall and I see them sit there. A few months down the line I see them heavily discounted online. So what happened? I ve seen them in person and on-feet and they look pretty clean.
Which meant that nobody really wanted it anymore. Take a trip to your local mall and you re bound to see dozens of Roshes sitting on shelves, on sale, begging nike air max 90 sale for someone to buy them. Nike should have taken a bit slower and gradually introduce new models, colorways, sole units, patterns, prints and technology on to the shoe. But like every business, they saw opportunity to make a profit on a highly coveted shoe and they went all in. I don t blame them. I just think that the Roshe would have had a longer (relevant) lifespan if they had slowed down a bit.
The Yeezy Boost 750 is something of an enigma to me. I can t look at it and see a sneaker really. In fact I ve always said that while at Nike, Kanye had sneakers and now with Adidas he has footwear. It s a shoe that grew on me once I accepted that fact. The suede upper and gray colorway make it a perfect complement to so many outfits.Kevin Plank and his team have looked like endorsement geniuses worthy of a Nobel Prize with the stable they ve assembled. Stealing Brady and Curry away from Nike and jumping on the highly acclaimed Newton and Spieth out of college were brilliant moves by the Under Armour execs.
The first time I saw the Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit was in Santa Monica at the Nike SNKRS Xpress Event for nike air max 90 womens NBA All-Star Weekend this past February. There were a handful of other kicks that I had my eyes on that night but the one that truly caught me off-guard was the AF1s. They were so light that I first thought they were display replicas that Nike screwed up and put on the shelf. My gut instinct was that this was some kind of new revision on Flyknit and it somehow made the shoe lose what feels like 80% of its weight. But it was more than that and it had nike air max 90 mens to the with the Ultra in the name.
