Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

TheNickFox said:
I've already said that if we get power laced Mags this year, I'll eat my lenticular hat.

...I just don't get why everyone is so confident that something will happen with literally ZERO evidence. The only concrete thing Tinker has ever said was that they'd never release Mags again. And meanwhile two quotations that say nothing have been used as proof.

So I'm going to eat a hat when hell freezes over, what are you going to do when nothing happens one the 21st?

There are no mags releasing this year, it will be one of nikes original models with power lacing. Announcement should be soon.

There are zero sources that back up that claim. So if you've got a verifiable source share it.

All I know is from a business standpoint, releasing fragile shoes that WILL break makes no sense for a company driven by profit.

Can't release the source :)
but I'm fairly reputable in the sneaker community and featured on Complex/Finishline/Refinery29 (albeit new here)

I'll believe it when I see it. No one has had a verifiable source on this, it's all people misquoting Tinker and re-quoting fan speculation built on top of that.

On top of that, none of the publications you mention have even gone so far as to state on record they have a confidential source, with verifiable credentials whome is willing to be quoted anonymously, so your claims of a source are spurious at best.

Again, let's go back to a logistical standpoint: What happens when 5, 10, or even 25% of the shoes fail because their electronics were put under extreme load being flexed inside a shoe? Companies issue recalls with as little as a .0004% failure rate! So if you have something that approaches even 1% it would be a customer service nightmare for the sneaker giant.

As much as I want power laces...as much as I want Mags...neither are likely to happen.

If you've got a source that says otherwise, so be it, but I'm EXTREMELY skeptical since you're the only one making that claim.

PS: Feel free to PM me proof of your source and his claims. I will keep it buttoned down (I've kept studio sources safe to get inside info in the past) and will confirm for the forum here whether it's a good source or not. That way we can put this whole thing to bed.

Pattern interrupt!

Apparently all kids in the future wear their pants inside out. Does that apply to the big kids too?

Happy Back To The Future Day [21st or October, 2015] and post a shot of you in your MAGs.

Thanks

Hi James,

I got hammered by customs for a pair imported into the UK from Karen Chen on Ali Express a couple of years ago (can't remember how much now). Plus it took them ages to release the damn things once I paid my fee.

Was it worth it ? Absobloodylutely
 
Are the Chinese still claiming to be releasing their Rd looking mags?

Wow, aliexpress has so many listings... How do you know who you can trust? There's no way (that I can see) to search by seller, so no way to search Karin Chen.

Anyone got a direct link to a reputable seller? Thanks in advance!
