Okay so what's the deal with the whole padded and non-padded trainers? I only own a pair of lunars so far, and I'd like to know before I cop my first pair of trainers

It's the first version v.s. second version that were released. The first version did not have padding around the collar and the second version offers padding around the collar. That's basically it.

Okay, so why exactly is the non-padded collar more desirable?

you mean for retail right? i'm in the same boat...i can get them for 250 resale, but i just have a hard time pulling the trigger

why do the racers have to be such a fly shoe?!

have you guys tried calling some NikeTown's? By now, they should be available for phone orders. $250 is absurd.

What's the deal with these, limited? I've gone to NTNY and they never have them. I haven't heard anything about them since they sold out on NDC. Haven't even seen any of you guys post pics of them. I need these, and the purple/gold, but I know those are still on NDC.
 
30% off at my local Nike outlet.. They had orange also but none in my size :frown: chorine blues will do for now

If 9.5 is your true size then you can definitely fit them. Even if you are a size 9.5, then they will fit. Might take a little to break them in so that they stretch, but you will be good.

Im a 9.5 as well, I have the padded trainers in 9.5 but as the volts will be unpadded I think 9 will be fine. As long as you don't have wide feet you should be ok.

Thanks for the information guys REPPED! I will probably pull the trigger on those volts at DF.

I'm not sure if this is the place to ask but I got dark blue jean stain on my white flyknit trainers :x :x :x
I was sooo pissed, just wondering if anybody ran into this problem. I tried Jason Markk cleaner but it's not coming out fully just kinda fading a bit. Here are some pictures after a couple of cleans any help would be awesome thanks!

^Only other option I can think of is throwing it in the washer. Others who have done so can probably chime in. I think it goes along the lines of, placing the shoes in a pillow case (minus the insole and laces). Wash on cold and gentle. Then air dry.

In my opinion it makes the shoe better because it does not look as bulky as the padded version. Padded version looks a bit more bulky, but that does not stop it from being a great trainer. Personal preference would play it's part in making the decision on which to find and purchase.

Once again, special shouts to @reazsal for the link to DF for the volts. Can't believe I was able to cop these a year and half after release for less than retail.

Thinking about putting a special area on the first page for all the guys who contributed extra to this thread (providing pics, links, hooking others up, etc.). Ok that's enough for the feels today :lol:

Thanks that sounds like a plan, I will try that after a few more wears. Do you know what kind of detergent would be good to use on these? I have all stain lifter handy but I will buy another just for these flyknits :nerd:

Overheard the NTSF worker saying that stores never get restocks on unique colored shoes. Once they're gone they're gone. The only restocks are online only.
