With the horizon of footwear releases being a balanced mix of quantity and quality, it takes something truly “out of this world” to get sneakerheads out of the woodworks and intensely prepare for a sneaker release. Sneaker News readers and forum regulars are already discussing tactics of acquiring a pair (expect to camp out), and with re-sale prices anticipated to triple or quadruple in price, getting a pair on release date has become all the more imperative. Needless to say, the upcoming ‘Galaxy’ theme for the 2012 NBA All-Star Game is the perfect match for the two; thirty of the leagues best stars convene in one location every year for a massive stellar explosion of on-court theatrics, and with Orlando being the host for this highly-anticipated event (just a stones throw from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center), the combination of an impressive concept and the single most hottest Nike sneaker commodity out right now should spell ‘history’, because the Galaxy Foamposites will go down as one of the best sneaker releases of the year. Of course, Sneaker News brought you a first detailed look at this red-hot release, and now we bring you the ever-popular ‘On-Feet’ approach, giving you a look at how awesome these will appear when you wear them on your own. Got plans of copping the Galaxy Foams? Let us know if these are a must-have for you and stick with Sneaker News for more updates and information regarding this hot release.

February 16th, 2012 at 9:11 pm
Honestly I'm a girl and can never see myself wearing foamposites that why I never had any interest in foamposites but these look WAY TOO EFFING GOOD TO PASS. If I ever pass upon a pair I would definitely cop it for my brother:) Piece of art.
February 16th, 2012 at 9:15 pm
Look better on feet, doesn't look as purple.
February 16th, 2012 at 9:16 pm

February 16th, 2012 at 9:21 pm
Make these a general release and 5 people will want them. Make 5 pairs, and everyone will want them. Tells you a lot about “Sneakerheads” these days. Having said that, these are actually pretty cool. Couldnt see anyone wearing them though.
February 16th, 2012 at 9:24 pm
i juss got mad hard
February 16th, 2012 at 9:24 pm
Serious my heart skip couple of beats..

February 16th, 2012 at 9:28 pm
Glad I got the hook up on these. I've been trying for like 2 years to get a pair of foams. Either I didnt like the colorway, I couldn't find a place that sold them, or they were sold out in my size. Finally the wait is over…
February 16th, 2012 at 9:28 pm

February 16th, 2012 at 9:28 pm
Ridiculous I like the way these turned out hopefully my tactics help me get a pair lol
February 16th, 2012 at 9:29 pm
Anticipation is killing me inside…not to resell but to actually put them on my feet
February 16th, 2012 at 9:30 pm
I like the foamposite one's but i LOVE these shoes wit a pasion. . . Price?
February 16th, 2012 at 9:31 pm
Argurably a top TEN all-time sneaker with a night time GNTD ..I really think Nike is gonna get some one killed with these limited releases because everybody can't have em but everybody's gonna want em
February 16th, 2012 at 9:34 pm
theses on-foot photos make me want them even more. I have to cop these sense i let the red ones slip away but I will be up all night refreshing my page.
February 16th, 2012 at 9:36 pm

For real these are GARBAGE str8 up. And whoever said DMV was the first place cats starting wearing Foams u gotta be out of your mind smh. New York Niggas were rocking Foam since 1997 and present when Quality was way better to this shitty ass materials. Hype beast especially ya boy Wale. This nigga is crash, Garbage. Seriously people buy this album. Attention calling all hype beast leave the game for the TRUE SNEAKERHEADS. First was metallic red that crash, which the OG red/black were better. Foams come out with Golden State yellow, clown sneakers and now this. Death to the Foams. Matter fact I will cop me the metallic red and then write on them like I did with the so called pearls. Ive rocking Foams for 14yrs strong it's time to leave the game for these shitty ass hype beast contenders.
February 16th, 2012 at 10:16 pm
They remind me of Dinosaurs. Dunno why. Too Bad Ass.
February 16th, 2012 at 10:21 pm
My boy JUST told me that like 5.min ago. I need more info too. Idk about the 500 pair thing, but tier 0 , yeah…..i think. My homie is pretty knowledgable

Most likely Men's Closet and or HOH in the Florida Mall. Call them and ask.
February 17th, 2012 at 1:53 am
Wait for the news… someone will be killed….
February 17th, 2012 at 1:58 am
Damn man!!! I absolutely agree!!! These are wack and you put it best " clown shoes". I been in the shoe game for about 19 years and these are straight garbage. Over hyped………monkey see monkey do. People don't have a mind of their own anymore.
February 17th, 2012 at 2:02 am

I’m tired of seeing corny folks or bandwagon folk wearing any type of foam shoe wit some gay ass skinny jeans lookin like geeks or nerds lol. But if u call dat swaag then yall can have it ill stick to the classic trainers,uptempos, n some J’s but can’t do da foams good luck to those who attempt to purchase.
February 17th, 2012 at 2:18 am

Nobody's wondering…we all know they have GITD soles
February 17th, 2012 at 10:58 am

February 17th, 2012 at 10:58 am

February 17th, 2012 at 11:01 am
Texas boys make mince meat outta rthem DMV boys. Mexican Drug Cartels be choppin niggas heads off and leavin them at the police station here.
February 17th, 2012 at 11:05 am

February 17th, 2012 at 11:13 am
Lots of shlong will be blowed and spit will be swapped here in tha DMV for deez, that's how we stay fresh wit Js in tha DMV. We hug it not thug it out in tha DMV.
February 17th, 2012 at 11:36 am

Good luck at HOH PG. Roll the dice and win the hottest pair of the year…all time??? And a trip to the hospital??? But honestly 12 on that auction site, 3 ready to ship now….. How solid are the numbers for a QS release and if all the pairs are up for grabs now how many are out there for us who just want the centerpiece of the collection for under a G. HOH and NikeTown but not all received, DMV were short, lets say 20 prs for all the Metro area. WTF we need a more top end sneaker stores in the area! Better Odds
February 17th, 2012 at 9:50 pm
These are amazing
February 17th, 2012 at 10:23 pm
Picking up at least 2 pair prob size 10-12 will be selling on eBay. I was Gunna ask for $800 each starting cuz I wanna get em off me ASAP.

February 19th, 2012 at 5:38 pm
Shutup. Back in college in 98 NY dudes was laughing at d.c. cats wearing foams and gucci sneakers. Stop trying to act like you know sneakers lame ass nigga. NY cats like Ones and Jordans, DC cats like jordans, foams, and prada gucci sneaks; we were the FIRST to really make them part of the uniform, like avirex was to NYC. No area rocks more foams than the D.C area, and that is a long time proven FACT. Thats why d.c. gets more foams than any other area in the country. Retard. Wale is a hypebeast? Wale is from D.C. and is in his late twenties. he is old enough to have copped og foams you dingbat ass nigga.
February 20th, 2012 at 3:14 am
Is anyone camping on NYC for these? if you are Contact me through email at Vepifrias@yahoo.com lets camp together!
February 20th, 2012 at 6:57 pm
Gay.
February 20th, 2012 at 8:28 pm
The shoe is hyped soo much, but these are dope, and i really hope i get lucky, and pay retail.
February 21st, 2012 at 11:44 pm
haha ^^
February 21st, 2012 at 11:57 pm
My nigga back home just said he aint going cop these cause he aint trying to lose his life. Lol Thats how you know shits crazy when people b dying for shoes. But bouta camp out for these shits & itll be easy to cop cause most west coast niggas dont fuck with foamposites.
February 22nd, 2012 at 5:29 pm
What stores will this be at…. i called the nike customer service and was on the phone for 30 minutes and they told me they can't release the list ..WTF where can i cop these … near charlotte
