To this day i have never seen this shoe in person lol

Foams were the jordan 1’s for a while! And in the DMV Foams NEVER went out of style

Yeah foams always look good on other people but I never have pulled the trigger on them that 250 always had me like 👀

These hella go its a real Foamposite a prolific joint at that Galaxy ,Eggplant, and OG Royals thats it thats all with this model .

Foams are super durable material and also unique looking, worth every penny, I get compliments on mines,

YEP Im getting all of the Foams I missed growing up!

I need those galaxy foams they’re perfect for the stack jeans now

This shoe release was crazy the mall I used to go to had tents and hundreds of people outside days before the release i noticed a shift in hype when the doernbecher 4s came out

Need those galaxy foams 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

Foams in DC was heavy in rotation since The beginning of the shoe. The hustlers in DC back in the day went out and bought this shoe. Especially at a time when this shoe start to sell at 165.00 in the 90s

I would say Wale and the DC area made the Foamposite popular…but I must admit the foam era was aggravating as hell because they were so limited and already expensive as hell

I want them Copper Colored foamposite and maybe those blue ones too.

It's crazy though so many people still buy the og the eggplants sold so fast , they OG sell so fast I been lucky so far and been able to get all of them , and now my girl who not a sneaker head now wants all of the colors. We on the hunt for the pink pair we saw a lady footlocker with a pair and the whole footlocker full of youngsters where in awww of them.

After getting burned by the concord release in 2011, this all star weekend release with galaxy foam release madness fully killed the fun hobby of being a sneaker collector and shit hasn't been the same since

I’m not having a bless day going through a lot right now, if I had choice to live or die…I will chose death any day now. Sometimes i feel like I don’t deserve to be here.

First...Mike Rich is the GOAT 🐐.

Galaxy foams and concords 11 the reason why we have raffles and sneaker apps you had to be there

Early 2000s I remember walking into hibbett on Austell rd got em on sale I use to work at Mrs winners in those comfortable shoes too

Foams are one of the best looking shoes off-feet Nike has made, but they big asf on feet, make you feel like you got some real stompers on

Nike’s most durable shoe

Bro these straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My opinion, foamposite always been dat shoe, I remember back in da day when dey first dropped, people wuz breaking in 2 stores, stopping da train dat came off da port of Miami, just 2 get dem foamposite. Ijs😂 foamposite been dat where I'm from 😅

You are absolutely correct. That shoe kicked this thang off. Actually I think the fighter jet came before

Foams been those shoez ...and alwayz be ....the build quality is top tier these a must AGAIN !!

People were selling their cars for these jawns lmao. I’m just hoping to get my hands on a pair this go round. I think they’ll still be pretty crazy resale. I waited for 9 hours a few years back to grab the Big Bang foams and the manager kept the extra pairs so yea they’ll be pricey.

Concord 11s started the resale market to see it in person was crazy

😂😂 HEEELLLLNHAW😅 I AINT GOT NOSTALGIA MONEY to waste 😅

I'm with you on this one cause I just never found those Foamposite shoes to be all that great. I did like the color on it but that was it.

The intro kicks it off right every time! Blessed day to you Mike Rich!

The Galaxy or Eggplants might be my first pair of foamposite!

Garbage truck slid pass right on time cause them joints trashhh

Definitely need them foams, those r so dope I missed the og's n I refused 2 pay that resale for them so hopefully I get lucky when they drop

I been rockn foams since 97 by the time these galaxies came out I had moved on from foams

Foams have always been niche. There’s people that love collecting foams in the same way that others love collecting Jordan 1s or Air Maxes. Feels like an east coast thing to be a foam fan. I’m from Texas, I never see foams.

Brought back memories of the 2013 all star release of them Rayguns

This was definitely one of the sneakers that started the hype wave…I think this and also the Nike Yeezys which were out a little earlier that the Galaxy, but also had release around the same time in 2012. What a time that was!

I feel u Rich. Ive never liked foams either. Big bubble toe ahh shoes

Throughout my whole time collecting sneakers I’ve never owned a pair of foams. They look tuff but I just can’t decide on what pair i’d cop 🥴

I never, ever liked any foamposites, but I do want a OG pair of Jordan 9 and Bel Air 5,s

Never wanted a pair of foams except for these.. glad im gettin a 2nd chance at em.

Foams was definitely the wave around that time and i mean HEAVY

Only Foamposite I want is the Tim Duncan joints👍🏾

It's 4 pair of foams I want that I couldn't get then galaxy, black , forest green ,& red not paying crazy prices

Never owned a pair of foamposites. The Blue Mirrors are probably my favorite with these fighting for second place. I’ll put my hat in the ring for these no doubt

Still got my galaxies 🌌 never letting them go

NYC and DMV was heavy into foams. You still see foams in NYC for the most part. And from the comments it seems like its still poppin' in the DMV.

What's up Mike rich yes definitely remember the Foamposites and the hype that surrounded them I was living in the DMV at the time and they was definitely rocking them joints I had a few pairs myself remember giving all to my little brother once I moved out west appreciate the video rich

Them are a must have🔥

Foams! Damn I'm slow as hell lol. Ninjas been saying foams and I been blanking

I got the Kanye west foams lol I still got them !! They still DS

6:02, facts

The elite galaxy socks hit resale for several hundred dollars as well.

I’m waiting on them dark neon royals dropping this summer! 🔥

Need them galaxy foam again I been on foams since day one and had them eggplant foam in 09 them foamposite eggplant bring the foam to the sneaker game that the demand was so high they re release the eggplant foam again 2010 , 2012 I camp 🏕️ out 3 days ti get galaxy foam if u we’re a beast in the street for them galaxy you were done at that release me and my crew was first top 10 at footlocker had all the all start sneaker that year great video 💪🏾

This and the concord 11's is still the most craziest releases

I love Foams it’s a cop for me. Any Jordan 6 or Foams I cop

I still have my 2012 Galaxy Foamposite that sneaker and Concord 11s changed the game

People were paying crazy amounts when they first started retroing J's in the late 90's and early 00's.. When the Bred 4's originally retroed in '99 mfs were paying $1,000+ for them.. You couldn't buy them for under $500 on ebay.. Same with SB Dunks, the hype was there a decade before these Galaxy Foams dropped

I been messin with foams till this day still the highest resell I’ve paid is $400 for the northern lights foams Imma definitely try and cop them galaxy Foams but ain’t no way in hell I’d ever choose to be on feet for no kicks I don’t care if it’s a bucket or not

So glad I finally got my big bangs 🔥🔥

Foams have always been over priced and there are too many other sneakers for less. I have hundreds of sneakers and hundreds that I haven’t worn yet. The only sneaker I TRIED to pay $250 for was the black Jordan 3 Rio

Yeerrr!💪🏾

Not a fan of Foams but folks did love these. At my peak I had over 250 pairs and 1 pairs of Foams 😂

Mike, OG’s remember that your feet don’t work well with those Foams. 🦶

I’d love to get a pair next year, but I know Nike is going to make it almost impossible to get a size 12.

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Never owned a foam and never been interested in them either lol but yeah that galaxy foam had folks going super crazy

You don't wear foams huh , cause my guy they still sell out in OG colors and the old ones still go for 1500 or more I have a pair and I just got offered 1k on the spot . And getting these so I can wear them more.

rich how those deions fit? I need to know because I have a size 12 coming and I can't send them back

Foams are a east coast shoe...the original blue foams (pennies) 🥶🥶🥶 these are aight but it's way better color ways

Don’t own a pair of foams at all

Gotta have em Mike

for nostalgia sake, I’m copping the Royal Blue Foams that drop in September.. i wanted those joints so bad back in Summer ‘97 when they first came out.. but they were too damn expensive THEN… (you know we couldn’t fathom the thought of spending damn near $200 on a pair of kicks back then) plus i never got around to grabbing a pair the other times they dropped a retro.. but now i’m FOCUSED!! 😂😂 also copped the Anthracite Foams and Eggplant Foams this year for nostalgic sake… honestly i could care less about the Galaxy Foams.. wasn’t too crazy about’m then, still won’t be be they release. easy pass for me

That shoe will be 260....to the moon on 'em

Need em

I'm going to get the Galaxy's as a collector. I previously lived in the DMV area where Foamposites had a HUGE following. I never owned a pair, so these will be some Grails for me👍🏿👍🏿💯💯

What's good yo

Thx for the history lesson Mike….

I won't be copping these. Never was a fan of them. The royal blue foams, all white were a nice colorway but they were just too dang heavy, bulky but some folks liked it and they kept making corways and variations. I don't see this style selling out or reselling for more than $350. Sneaker game is dialing back on the resellers hyped up prices. Too many new jordans have dropped and are going under price or at the outlet within 2 weeks. Hope that answers this question. #trash can water guys

I miss the get em or forget em videos

Us in the DMV gonna have a field day that day lol

Flint Michigan

That shoe was the most hyped and counterfeited Niqqaz was so pressed to have that damn shoe that they didn’t care where they came from. Corner stores was selling fake galaxies and selling out. I hated the shoe, for 1 WTH am I gonna wear with it. 😂😂🤣🤣. Then the galaxy rookies were next. Followed by python,elephant, floral, weather man, and lava. The only other Foam that was super hyped was he Paranormans.

foam are to heavy. So, I always passed on them

Thank you for defining a cult classic!! Nike swear they be starting shit lol. Nobody talks about those blazers that dropped that day.. they were ⛽️ too!! Might use these as trade bait. Can’t see myself actually wearing them.

I never seen knew a single person who liked foams

I want bro I’m a new collector but always had shoes

Im gettin them, this time

These top 3 drops of 2025 for me. Number 1 probably AJ5 Metallic Black.

I fuck with foams, always have. But I don't like the look of the galaxies. One thing, though... I've never seen anyone rock the galaxy foams or the paranorman foams in real life.

I got the 2012 pair in my closet I use to hoop in them😭

I found these foam’s in the outlet and I kid you not I didn’t know what the hell it was …I was just thinking to myself I ain’t going wear a shoe with fairy dust …and that same night I was watching the news an someone was rob for theirs …that’s when it hit me dam…it real the Penny’s are worth dollars

Pop I need them Kobe 7s 🗣️🗣️✨

Never been a foam fan. Y'all can have 'em.

I'm going to try and get them

People were literally trading their vehicles on Craigslist for the galaxy foams you just had to be there

Cop I need the galaxy foams I’m copping

What I 🤔 yea I’m copping for sure

Heat my boi

Cop for memories🔥
