If they do, I hope they will look a lot better than those crappy Beijing series.

I have the USA one.. and it looks pretty cool. I saw they had a Great Britain one and it looked amazing. Anyone else have any of these?

Americans are patriotic as hell. I understand you like the USA ones. But in fact they are ugly right
I wouldn't like a superstar in Dutch colors either.

What DeanO and Rob said...I do have the UK and Japan ones though as I thought they had a nice simplistic design to them...then again, both are my beaters for winter wear LOL....

They were all gash IMO, they look tacky.
As far as Im aware they arent re-doing them, well not from a UK range perspective anyway.

I like the China ones and those are the only ones I have from that series. Wouldn't mind a pair of the Japan ones if I could get em cheap.
You're right about a supe in Dutch colours, Rob. It annoys me every time I wear my orange vins that people start making comments that it isn't Queens day or that "Oranje" isn't playing and those supes aren't even made to represent the Netherlands... I don't like the royal family, I'm not a big fan of the national football team, I just want to rock my supes that happen to be orange.

If they were ever going to go down that road again then 'swedes' should form the basis of their inspiration.

The Olympics are fucking awful and continue to be awful so long as they design them for the fucking Footlocker crowd.

That was kinda rough... I'm not gonna front, the basic 1 color General Releases are fresh.... sometimes more than a LIMITED / EXCLUSIVE shoe. I just love that old school look. Match the fat laces and that's it.
