Black Purple Foamposites: Check Out This Ultimate Review and Guide

Date:

Share:

Man, let me tell you about my latest sneaker adventure. I finally got my hands on a pair of those Nike Air Foamposite 1 in Black and Varsity Purple, and it was a whole process. So, it all started a few months back when I first saw these beauties online. I’ve always been a fan of the Foamposite line, ever since they dropped in ’97. I mean, who could forget that liquid look? It’s just so unique. These new ones, though, they caught my eye with that black and purple combo. It’s like, retro but still fresh, you know?

Black Purple Foamposites: Check Out This Ultimate Review and Guide

First thing I did was hit up all my usual sneaker spots online. No luck. Sold out everywhere. Then, I remembered this little shop downtown that sometimes gets rare drops. I rushed over there, heart pounding, hoping they’d have them. And guess what? They did! But, of course, there was a catch. They only had one pair left, and it was half a size smaller than what I usually wear. The guy at the shop told me Foamposites mold to your feet, since they’re made of this polyurethane stuff. I was skeptical, but I really wanted these shoes, plus I knew if I had them shipped to me they would cost an arm and a leg. So, I decided to take a chance and bought them on the spot.

  • Trying Them On: Slipped them on right there in the store. Tight, ngl, but not unbearable. I walked around a bit, did some stretches, trying to convince myself they’d stretch out.
  • The Break-In: Wore them around the house for a few days. I’d put them on for an hour or two, then switch to my comfy slides when my feet started to complain. It was a slow process, but I could feel them getting a little more comfortable each time.
  • Hitting the Streets: Finally, after about a week, I decided to wear them out. Went for a walk around the block, then to the grocery store. By the end of the day, they actually felt pretty good.

The Verdict

These Foamposites, man, they’re something else. They look even better in person, and that black and purple is just killer. They’re definitely snug, but like the shop guy said, they do mold to your feet over time. Plus, they’re super supportive and have great traction, which is a big deal for me since I play ball sometimes. It’s like, even though they were designed by Eric Avar for Scottie Pippen, they became Penny Hardaway’s signature shoe. I feel like a legend with them on. Overall, I’m really happy with my purchase. It was a bit of a gamble with the size, but it paid off. If you’re thinking about getting a pair, I say go for it. Just be prepared for a little break-in period. Trust me, it’s worth it. These are a must cop in 2024!
