the flu games look cheap as hell. Agreed that a classic was ruined with this, there is no reason why Jb would substitute nubuck for leather. The 12’s were always kind of flimsy and now its worse. Never thought i’d say it but the Lebrons look the best of all the pics.

louis looks SICK…LOL

Dvin Harris is wearin Lightning Creators not Cut creators. Adidas is the perfect kick for a baller. Nike only last for 2 seasons , Adidas last for 5 years, plus technology of their shoes is very useful and functional.. Based frm experience . no BS.

flu games r wack only buyin em cuz i cant get tha leather 12s rising suns are garbage to but copped em cuz its a predominately white retro
Nov 22, 2009 at 6:06 pm
I never really liked those 12’s. I got the white/black when they dropped and the black/caroline when you had to but the whole package (shoes,hoodie,hat) and I’m sure I will pass on these.

what kicks are nate rockin??
Nov 22, 2009 at 4:45 pm
There is nothing original about the flu games except the colorway… & they even jacked that up!
The 23 on the heel was black now its red.. & they used nubuck instead of leather… Another classic ruined by JB.

Nov 22, 2009 at 3:47 pm
watching those Flu Games fold and bend……it hurts my heart, you know I’d treat you better than that, you know I would!!!
Nov 22, 2009 at 3:31 pm
the flu games are the best
Nov 22, 2009 at 3:10 pm
i don’t really think the flu games concide with the uniform..i wish i would’ve seen D .Wade wear em or maybe Derrick Rose.
Nov 22, 2009 at 3:07 pm
louis williams been wearing jordans before they released since high school. must be nice being good at sports. about time his team is somewhat successful too. Atlanta is really balling though.
pass on flu games though . . . december will be too expensive.
