They will most likely come out with the pair online too because they wouldn't waste their time rendering something like that.

Hopefully they do....
 
really want the black racers if the black is on the outside.  come on nike, get your **** together
 
Wearing flyknit trainers make you a hypebeast? My friend is convinced I'm "jumping on the beast bandwagon" but I'm just like well they're comfy as hell. I used to think my air max's were comfortable. I had a pair every year until this year I opted to try flyknits.

They looked a little strange to me at first but they've definitely grown on me.

I got the white/black pair from an outlet for $129, volt off ndc for $119, and grey/blk off ndc with a 15% off coupon I got for an issue exchanging my 2nd pair of wht/blks.

I OD'ed a little bit in my first couple of weeks but I always do that with pairs I like. I still don't even see a lot of people wearing them at all. Do you guys think they're a hypebeast shoe?
 
No. only hypebeast reference is because maybe Kanye wears them and brought some fans to the line.

Who cares, wear what you like...
 
This is far from a hypebeast shoe. The whole kanye argument is stupid. Ppl give that man way to much credit. The ppl who only have flyknit multis are hypebeast
 
Idk if it has been said but the multi 1s are on NDC. I know this is the wrong thread but I know ppl on here ordered theses along with the racers
 
im hoping the black/white racers on NDC are the same as the racers on RRS. ive already ordered from RRS... if the one on NDC is a different color blocking (black/white vs white/black) i need thems!! i prefer the sample pic on NDC of the lateral side being black.
 
Hypebeast bandwagon? No. But I do think Flyknits are starting to get a little played out. Not necessarily the Trainers, and definitely not the Racers, but I see a ton of bozo's wearing the Lunars.

Andre Padilla: Do you know when the multi color flyknit

racers will be available

Yadira: Hi Andre.

Yadira: At this time we do not have details as to if or when

this item will be available through our site. We will update the

launch calendar when we receive launch information on this

style. You can follow @NikeStore for launch updates. I have

provided a link to our Twitter page and Launch Calendar

below.

In my opinion, wearing anything does not make anyone a hypebeast, rather it is the reason WHY someone wears something that makes them a hypebeast or not. For example, someone who has always loved runners and etc. buying and wearing flyknits is perfectly normal for them. On the flipside, someone who would never have thought about buying flyknits, but one day sees X and Y celebrities wearing them. Now this person out of the blue starts buying flyknits and worshipping the shoe solely because they saw celebrities wearing them makes it clear this person a hypebeast.

I personally first saw flyknits during the 2012 olympic game ending ceremonies and even then I didn't think much of the shoe because I wasn't ready to pay a $150 price tag. I only ordered my 1st pair of flyknits in Jan/Feb of 2013 when I saw electric green trainers in the clearance section on NDC. I figured I might give it a try because it certainly looked novel and rumors have it that this shoe is amazing on all levels and won top 3 innovations of 2012 as rated by Time magazine. I was sold on the flyknit series after I received the electric greens from NDC. This sneaker is practically perfect in every aspect. I started hunting for more colorways and always trying to get them for a bit below retail. I was able to acquire a bunch of the original colors thanks to great insight and tips from fellow niketalk members & this thread (shout outs to everyone who has contributed bargains and deals for flyknits on here). I currently own 5 colorways of the trainers and 3 colorways of the racers. I personally do not like the way lunar midsoles look, so I would probably never consider buying flyknit lunar 1's. I'm all in for racers and trainers without padding. I guess I'll just end up collecting racers now that trainers have been ruined by the addition of padding (my own personal judgement from actually experiencing padded vs non-padded trainers).
 
I've been looking to get some flyknits recently but couldn't decide on if I want some trainers or racers. I like shoes with more of a plush, cushioned feel. Any recommendations on which ones I might prefer more?
