Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

cavx said:
Glad I am not the only one here. It seems that is has been my fail spot twice now. The wires rub against the fabric (due to the way the foot and everything moves inside the shoes) and wear right through the insulation on the wires, causing a short. The solder joints were solid on the last tear down. I can add extra protection to the joints, but how does one layer up the wire itself without it being too bulky?

I wonder if something like this is happening to my HC. The sole lights blink off when the shoe is flexed.

Possibly. When the wires in the V2 broke the first time (factory and my first re-wire) both broke in the collar up the back of the shoe. The exposed ends of the wires would touch just long enough to briefly power up, then movement would cause the ends to separate and the lights to go out.

never anything for Australia. I miss the days when Nike used to make 50 thousand pairs of a shoe and you could actually get a pair. :thumbsdown
 
I've always loved these shoes, although I am probably not as obsessed as many of the people in this thread, haha.

To get close to owning and wearing a pair regularly, I found trainers with a similar style, colour.

These are my current choice (admittedly both addidas, soz) - adidas-isolation-2-grey-white-onix-basketball-shoes-0008.jpgOutlet-Adidas-Skateboard-High-Shoes-Men-Grey-White-3QNCP_LRG.jpg

Why not just buy a Mag replica? They range from inexpensive unbranded models to near perfect copies for hundreds of dollars.

Also, Nike Shibusa is kind of like a low-top Mag.
 
I've been waiting since the 28th for the new round of pics and she sent me only one pic of the same shoe as last time. She says they are the same pair in the other pic. The splatter appears to be the same but the original doesn't have the bunched up fabric under the heal cup. If that wasn't there I'd take them. Id rather have semi yellow soles with no bunched fabric so I'm going to ask to see a 4th shoe. I really hope this next pair is decent because I'm tired of asking for pics. I feel like the same couple pairs are being rotated back and forth to us until someone takes them.

The shoes are collected per order, so yep, someone rejects them, they are handed onto the next sale.
 
I know that people won't see it unless they are up close but I will know and that will drive me crazy. I'm just as anal about paint apps on the figures I collect. It's a curse.
 
I think there is only 1 pair available for the uk draw and you have to purchase the ticket at the niketown store in Oxford circus
