Looks like something you'd pick up on 8th Ave for $39.99 with an I ❤ NY tee.

I really don’t know how to interpret this. They are a considerably more streamlined, distilled version of the original design. A knock-off wouldn’t go out of its way to look so different.

The color blocking is clumsy. Should’ve done more or less not in between.

When I saw the hi-tops, I also thought...cheap. I know they are not, but that was my first thought.

Also, they would not fit into my wardrobe/style.

The green/lows, I could wear with shorts and a T.

The original colorway was blocked similarly.

Let’s first accept that 2’s are ******* ugly compared to everything else that came before and after them.

Secondly, the bastardization and endless permutations of certified classics to get people to buy more shoes is an amazing plan by Nike and works flawlessly 😀
