This sucks man they should just keep the price the same

[gamerboy232]

Hell no

[gamerboy232]

Hell

[jack0153]

If they want me to pay 220 dollars for a pair of sneakers, it had better make me levitate if i'm paying the same price as 2 nike sneakers.

[KidSon704]

I got a nice job and all love my sneakers but $220 plus tax?? Can't do it. Unless they were signed or came with a Tee and a fitted lol

[Cr3ativeRoyalty]

Anything that's red cost more.

[FATboyFAME]

I'm not too happy about this. ONLY because it's straight GREED on Nikes end. That have no loyalty to there customers only too there bank accounts.

I got em but only to flip em.

[tomamami48]

[polloloco201]

YO DJ DELZ CHECK OUT MY VIDEO U MIGHT LIKE IT

[Mr4evastrong]

Man if you complaining about 20 bucks you shouldnt be buying them in the first place, had to add them to the collection. As Far as taxes IDK where you live, but there's no sales taxes here:P get your money up FOAMHEAD for life!

[storm325]

[untouched92]

the Xs were horrible they came precreased and the tumbled leather sucked kind of disapointed...those are hot but idk 220 is pretty steep for me right now

[BULLETPROOF92]

I've had mines for almost 2 weeks already, had to cop these early... I know they going to sell out, people started lining up already yesterday.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@Bksfr3shest23 yea nyc stay doin that

[TheMRsneakerfreak]

@THESNEAKERADDICT man i gotta get these im 0 for 1 right now i tried to get them KD YOTD and them shits sold out in a minute 34 secs ...crazy... out here in texas they are goin nuts over the foams now..they late so now the hype is even worse! lol

[Bksfr3shest23]

I Live In Brooklyn There Charging $425 Right Now, Crazy!!!

[mrwhitenugga]

too bad for y'all I'm coppin these on Saturday and might just get the white rookies ps I'm 15 so stop complaining just get some money and buy them

[younglexofficial]

Hey any one hear about the foamposite one galaxy all stars

[bigbenn23]

after these foams is the last time ill spend 220 plus tax thats ittt nd i would most def not pay 220 for no yellow foams smh

[typhon1510]

I'll go easily spend the money I was on these on the cement 4s go get lunch and put some gas in my tank

[MrBigoj]

It's simple the reason why Nike and Jordan brand are raising their prices RE-SELLERS plain and simple both brands see how much where paying for their sneakers on eBay, Craigslist, and other websites and their combating those prices I bet you any amount of money they will raise the price every 2 years until we wind up paying re-seller prices

[didurmom64]

man i dont have a job, takes me long enough just to get 200 and now i gotta get 20 more without tax. FMl lol

[DjFatalityTV]

$20 is a lot to charge up for a sneaker that's already $200. For some people that 20 bucks is the gas money to get the spot to cop the sneaker. For there to be no improvements to the shoe what justifies the hike? No new hang tag? No new Box? I'm straight on this on Nike. Hot shoe though...

[AZsneakerhead1]

I like em, but 220, come on Nike!

[flipkid777]

Nike gettin super stupid on the prices nowadays

[chriscash6]

they not even worth it

[85jordanboi23]

I been wanting these since the summer so ima still cop but the future isnt lookin to good for foams for me...

[polloloco201]

Dj Delz iam big fan of your videos keep doing your thing iam definitely getting these but some ppl would rather get those Jordan spizike bordeaux that are coming out to u like those

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@polloloco201 the spizikes are cool but id take these over them

[imtoobased]

right to the balls

man 220 PASS!!

[Chief1887]

Never had a pair of foams b/c of the price tag, even w/ a swoosh account they were never discounted but I really wanted these to be my first cause red is my fav color but I'll rather dish out $220+ on some grails or a past release I missed

[Italianxsb]

dam this sucks im only 14 i dont have a job and i want these and your right a kick to the balls

[KillaSkatta]

@Italianxsb yea same but im 13 isnt 200 already enough

[oGxDreaMz]

do foams run true to size?!



[RDY2PLAY36]

When your looking at coppin 5 sneakers in Feb 20$ is a lot money dawg. I hope they give a little something extra even with the box for $20.

[hznite]

I used to be a sneaker head (Nike/Jordan) until i really just realized they are the only two companies that get over so good on people by reselling old styles over and over, and even meshing two or three multiple OLD styles together. They really dont have to pay as many designers as they did in the late 90's, because their recycling old designs and uping the price! Especially when the old outsells the new shoe designs that come out. No other shoe brand does this.

[TheJEDlikes]

I was gonna get these but I just bought a new pair of cool greys

[xMaJiicKiix]

I got no problem paying an extra couple dollars for good quality but Nike is just gonna keep adding a few dollars n us sneakerheads gonna pay because of da love 4 shoes.

[ingatown47]

$20 is not that bad. this shoe is EPIC!! especially when you look at what it will cost when the reseller start putting there prices up. plus ill take the $220 over the $300 to $400 for the early release and the $500 resellers. so, to me its worth it on these.

[RPerez6241]

When resellers charge $300 and up after they release. All Nike is doing is recouping more profit from their own products. It must be frustrating to see your products going for double, triple or even quadruple the retail prices. So we are responsible for the steady price increases due to always hyping up every new release that drops. High price for hot kicks are here to stay. Get your paper up and keep up.

[ps3gamershow]

More the reason to get the Diamond Turfs!

[LastBEARSFAN54]

that's ridicoulos! personaly i don't even like the foamposite's, i know i'm in the minority on that. i'd much rather have a pair of the spizike "crayola" that are coming out @ the same time. just my opinion...nice video as always, big fan.

[118ent]

Yep I'm officially done wit foamposites...smh

[ede890]

220 for a pair is getting ridiculous you got to have plenty of paper or no bills to get this

[sneakerking213]

Niggas Is Paying $450 For Them. So $20.00 Ain't Shit

[TCBABY1]

Hey Delz, thanks for holding us down. Those are a must cop.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@TCBABY1 no doubt!

[wREMOw]

ONLY $220?? MAN HERE IN QUEENS NY EVERYONE SELLING THEM FOR $500!!! SMH

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@wREMOw word! ive seen that

[deadstockblack]

That shit is a little too damn steep. i mean why in the hell would nike add a extra 20 dollars to a foam? its bad enough we paying 200 for the shoe alone. is it cause it metallic? is it better foam material, gum bottom, carbon fiber? nike gots alot of explaining to do.

[Doeboiifreshhh]

lol not be cheap i never wanted to cop foampoistes due to that 200$ retail so this made it worse for me lol...

[tonytheasian]

I'm starting to actually like the look of the foamposites because of this show haha

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@tonytheasian hahaaa

[theflyingcat123]

its totally nike taking advantage of us. we know people will buy them no matter what so drop the quality and increase the prices.

still love nike but i feel like im biting the hand that feeds.

[scotchxsoda]

aside from being a cool dj, a knowledgable sneaker head, you're also a fucking comedian. keep it up delz. lol

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@scotchxsoda thanks, glad u messing with my show

[gamerpr0s]

hey man where did you get them early i live in NY. ilove your videos bro! I'm definitely getting these shoes right here!

[aenhitchcock]

The know alot will pay to get them.$

[meazy757]

I like the price hike hopefully I'll get my second pair because of it

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@meazy757 hahahaa

[titanmedic23]

i dont like the constant price hikes, but Nike will continue to do it as long as the shoes sell...

[wharris91941]

Fuck nah.. imma cop two pairs off top.. I would of bought them early but I just decided to wait

[kiddwavy91]

Remember that's before taxes so u lookin at almost 235 240 a pair smh any higher and Nike can suck my Dick

[SuperNarion123]

would you perfer these or the playoff 13's ?

[irockjordans29]

the foam game is dead

[jokebooks]

The funny thing is I know people with nice cribs and don`t care about their shoes but the ones that wear shoes like these live in projects. Smh at that.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@jokebooks thats ignorant,i live in a great house and have nice shoes

[jokebooks]

@THESNEAKERADDICT You and me both bro. Thanks alot. I like what you do.,

[MichaelScarn23]

@jokebooks You are a clown ahahahahahah

[jokebooks]

I`ll still get them but I think they raised the price because they know people will pay.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@jokebooks yeah they are gonna sell out super quick regardless

[SuperNarion123]

i think that is stupid to raise them twenty dollars

[boomskiheadshot]

@SuperNarion123 really? i thought it was pretty awesome.



[LRaw23]

should i get the 4s or the foamposites? 

[haysteve420]

@LRaw23 personally the 4s go way harder thats just me i wouldnt mind gettin these but 220 damn

[tooshortbullys]

fuckin blood suckers 20 dollars mor and the shoe is the same CRAP!and i wanted to buy theese and with the tax its gonna be a total of 240,this sucks

[bigred5992]

They know we are sill going to wait in line to spend $220. If I had a product that I knew I would sell out even if I charged 10%more I would do it (I would consider charging more). Prices wont go down till people stop paying. Thats the way it is. Nike didn't get to be this big by doing us any favors. If anyone really wants the price to go down people need to stop complaining and just quit buying the shoes.

[TheHurricane28]

The "Foam" game is dead now anyway. All these multiple colors killed it.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@TheHurricane28 I agree, all the must have colorways dropped already

[armedsoulja]

i cant believe the priced change its hard for a teen to get a job having to hustle like wash cars and mow lawns to get our sneaker/gear money its ridiculous there just robbing people

[vasneaks]

Damm Don't care still coppin



[byrd9009]

damn nike trippin...10% increase on a shoe like this is ridiculous

[tispowwow]

Honestly you must be retarded to pay 220$ for a sneaker that cost 20$ to make.

[lamdo23tech]

Are foamposites HARD to crease? i would love that, i somehow always crease my shoes. I have NO idea why!

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@lamdo23tech i got over 10 pairs with no creasing

[nickxxxrosero]

@THESNEAKERSADDICT do you really like the colorway and the shinyness of them ? and are you coping the electrolimes cuse the coloor to be honest looks like a fraking boogger lol

[badazz1912]

im boycotting these bitches!

[MarcusShabazz]

Damn, I guess I'll be getting retail raped on first pair of Foamposites... oh well. Thug Life

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@MarcusShabazz word

[TheEn4sir14]

Aw man I was gonna get em wit the money i saved up I had 225 $ but plus tax I can't get em that sux

[GeezysMixtape]

Much love Delz from Chicago

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@GeezysMixtape no doubt ,much luv to the cha

[SneakerNerd35]

wurd i feel u delz is lik foams are hot but no the colorways they show the oublic that r comin out aint even worth it anymore they needa stop makin wack colorways and bring back the classics i wuldnt mind payin 240 for sum blue pros or black pros but they buggin out

[KIngFireSole]

Price rise is gay.

[umbrellaman08]

We pay around £130-£150 in the UK for them but if Nike increases the price for us (for 2012) then it would hit around the £160 spot which will be around $250 and we don't even play ball as much as people in the States or China/Asia/other countries! This this is crazy plus no one is touching Lebrons here, it cost already £120/$188 for them!

[GregDakaKillAnyBeat]

check out the cinnamon challenge...subscribe to my page

[CrispyMcFly]

"Bow right to the balls!' lmao. NIce vid Delz. and i totally agree with ya.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@CrispyMcFly word!

[ThePreme09]

man i was going to buy the shoe, but now you can forget about it! 20 bucks it's too much to raise on a shoe that didnt even change nothing to its quality. thats horrible, but i am going to cop the cement 4, at least jb is trying to improve its quality.

[Help136]

hell nah

[JBarb703]

theyre pretty dope,i was thinking about it @200 but 220,yea its only a dub but its not about the 20 its about the fact that they do it last second knowing people will still buy them but even more so is the fact that the most of the shoes will be bought by retail/resell instead of rock/stock in turn will make the after market price tag 60 more than what they were going to,shoe game has gone to shit now days,not the shoes themself causing chaos(concords) but huge price tags people will have to pay

[mikeariw23]

Shit I'm a broke college student...gotta pass on these cause increase...4's will be copped though

[AceTelevison]

@mikeariw23 I feel bro. I'm in the same situation

[mikeariw23]

@AceTelevison Yea its hard out here for us..They should have at least a 10% discount for students or even 5.

[AceTelevison]

@mikeariw23 Yeah I know. They don't think about the students who actually take school serious and are out here grindin tryna do something with their life. smh

[Trezisfresh]

shits look red hots

[lilrellzz]

Definitely not buying any future foamposite release now. This price increase bullcrap I cant with nike and jordan brand at this point.

[jarodriguez308]

whats good man the reason for the increase is that nike as put a 10% increase on must of their sneakers. for example i work at a sneaker store and everything is on the raise low cut forces are $90 mid cut $95 and all shoes with the 360 air sole are 170 now instead of the usual 160

[MaxAir365]

Im not a foam guy....do like these (also royals and coppers) but was gonna copp but Nike is trippin

[SkullSquadronVF84]

Prices have been going up year after year. Big corporations are never gonna change their business practices. Even occupy didn't work.

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@SkullSquadronVF84 definitely, occupy was a waste of peoples time

[UndaRated10]

Hell, I already committed the 200 towards them...might as well kick in another 20. Why not? Bruh, any word on the release of the galaxy colorway?

[haysteve420]

@UndaRated10 might be droppin all-star weekend but that might just be a rumor

[mrmitchell15]

"that's a kick to the ball , BONG , right to the balls" lmaooo

[MrSkeezy100]

I feel da same way but still gotta get them...

[Uxist2]

Corp America is a blood suck douche bag that will take all you got cause they know people are sneaker junkies and will pay anything they ask. The sneaker heads are the ones who started this price increase problem because they pay up the ass on sites like Ebay & Flight Club. Damn resellers are the root of the problem. People need chill on over spending so the market can stablize again.

[698Derek]

Thank God I live in Delaware where there is no sale tax

[mbrachs20]

hey delz.. ive noticed a lot of nike product being marked up... example..nike frees are now 100 not 90.. still copping.

[BigAce202]

Why? well its all the hype surrounding the shoe. people going crazy at the midnight releases, camping out hours (or even days) before a release. if Nike see's people on the news getting robbed/killed for their shoes then obviously the DEMAND for them is crazy. if people are willing to kill for a pair of shoes, then Nike knows most people won't mind paying $20 more

[777kingofthebay]

Shoe companies (Nike) are definitely taking advantage of us. They make the shoes for basic slave labor, and sell them for a fortune. Never liked foams anyways.

[8oyoya]

No more foamposites for me, all these price hikes on Nikes. I agree that there's nothing different from any previous foamposite models. I believe the hype will die down for these in years coming.

[JStreetz1070]

Hey Delz! What do you think about my video on the Black Stealth Spizike?

[KiDDSwAggA0227]

fukk dat i still ordered minez already

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@KiDDSwAggA0227 hahaaa! they hot!

[jabmo25]

I think $20 plus tax is a little i was going to cop but I'm going get these Bordeaux 7 from my man for $150. I'm passing

[TheCoolJumper]

Thats 10%! F U Nike...

[KingZapata1]

Looks like im not buying them

[jonchevy87]

Dis is some BS but if u a real sneaker head u gonna say eff it and get them anyways so its whateva

[dozr707]

as much as i love sneakers delz, whats really keepin them from raisin prices?  I mean really tho.......They could raise it to 250 and sell out within hours of release, dont blame them cuz its just as much our fault for enabling them.

[AnthonyIHD]

hahahaha "Its like a kick to the balls!"

[kindbuddies410]

I was never going to get them in the first place. Now I'm really not getting them now!

[mavheji]

i think it worth 50$ like papa said

[WavyFrezhSwaqqx214]

fuckk that ima keep buying my fakeee jordans :D i pay 30 for em and 50 for the foamposites =x so im gucci ma nikka ^_^ lmfaoooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooo !

[TMACAKANO1]

220 its ok for me cause this is the only foamposite I'm going to buy this year lol

[kingmazia]

@Thesneakeraddict where and when can I buy these shoes... I always wanted foams please help.

[kingmazia]

Where can I buy these shoes?? ... Someone PLEASE HELP!... And when they come out??

[THESNEAKERADDICT]

@dre19872005 haha

[TheRacer80sg]

$20 more is BS man...its low for Nike..

[IamTheTomahawker]

Great vid delz. I mean 20 bucks is a bit much. But i dont think people gonna be going that crazy over it. However, i think people ARE gonna start going crazy when it constantly raises every year on every type of shoe and nottin bout the shoe is changing

[fineryan74]

I mean damn...they already the most expensive shoe on the market....I prolly still cop but damn...240 is too damn much for a regular release

[Kashvillepitbulls]

Nike might want $250.00 if the release the Galaxy Foams or the Lebron Foams Player Exclusive

[Kashvillepitbulls]

I'm still getting them but the extra $20 is BS $240.00 after tax but I wouldn't pay that for J's or the Tim Duncan's

[LosoWaveXxL]

I would rather pay 220 for foamposits when 200 for some J's that's going to look hit after you wear a few times

[dre19872005]

Yea I Definetly need my 2 cents now lol

[LosoWaveXxL]

220 plus tax that's crazy!!! I might have to skip lunch and dinner to cop lol.rather pay 220 foaposits

[FABOnguyen]

What The Buck ?!!?

[TheQwe12370]

Can't fade 220

[olay1196]

when the sales drop they'll switch that bs back

[SneakerxFreak94]

Dear nike, For your next release can you have it come with Lipstick? Because id atleast like to look pretty next time i get F*CKED!

[MrAngel717]

The fuck!! Like 2 weeks ago it said 200 and now its 220!! Thanks bro for the heads up an I'm still getting these joints tho lol

[HecFX]

Damn thats nuts, thanks for the heads up delz, these fools are nuts.... im deff not coppin nemore foams... they arent all that to me anyways...

[poisenctrl]

foams were already good quality..shits r indestructible

[phanieldung]

$220 is a dealbreaker

[tmilatos]

Because of the upcoming war in Iran? I guess the nation needs money...

[lexyota]

people hype the crap out of shoes nowadays. its no wonder they up the price ..smh.

[illlwill1990]

Thats fucked up

[drek100sm]

Nike knows theres crazy ass sneakerheads out here. no doubt theyre gna keep raising em

[joselisandro08]

Man Nike loves ass fucking us.

[xChillKidx]

im not buying cant fade

[xJimboSlice]

Glad I don't like foams haha
