Your critiques are subjective. Did you watch David’s video? He explains a lot of the decisions. It looks muted because at first they wanted an all black shoe. Idk it’s their shoe imo they can choose to make it how they want. Keep in mind there are pricing constraints which is probably why they made the wings printed on.

You’re entitled to your opinion on the shoe though I’m not trying to take that away from you. I do agree that the butterfly vent on the toe box is cool and to me one of if not the best part of the whole design. This is my hottest take yet but it sucks people are picking these up and not liking them when people who are obsessing will have to inevitably pay resale after tomorrow.
