I just got a pair from finishline. I usually wear a 9 in most AM90s etc until recently when I think they started running bigger. I'm going to return for an 8.5. The material "pinches" at the front and I think it's because it's a tad too big, but it's crazy how light they are. Now I can unload now that I know what size I need.
 
Is there any coupons for Sole Sports? I'm trying to scoop up an 8.5 in Green, Black, and White......not having much luck. FNL won't let me use same code I used for the pair I have here to return so I will deal with that tomorrow when I return them and see if they can work out an exchange. Sole has Green in 8.5 so i might as well get them.
 
Snowknits >D

Were your feet frozen? Hah

i had wool socks on, and didn't have to walk too far, so it wasn't too bad :lol:


snow doesn't get your feet wet like water? or is snow not actually wet.
 
well i went into my local fleet feet to try on a pair of trainers to see what size i needed
i noticed they didn't have the racers so i asked if he could check other stores to see if they had my size

when he returned, he told me that he did have the racers but they were in a box being sent back to nike so he opened the box and i was able to get a pair
i asked why they were being sent back and he told me that the flyknit one was taking its place..it had nothing to do with sales

i don't know what that means but you might want wanna grab a pair soon in the OG colorways before they are a gone and you have to deal with these crazy hypebeast trying to make you pay 300 bucks for some thread
 
I regret jumping the gun getting the VOLT flyknit racers off FNL a few weeks back.
The racers SUCK. Maybe my feet are too wide, but the fit is bad. It sucks the volt trainers are impossible to find at retail now.

You live & you learn :\

There might also be a possibility that the OG colorways and models could find there way into some outlets. Not saying that's the case but it's very well possible. :D

The lunar ones are simply a new branch of the flyknit. similar to how they have the OG AM90s and the Engineered Mesh versions. The trainers and racers are the flagship shoe of the Flyknit series.

Agreed! I had the Racers, and I placed them up for sale immediately, as I absolutely HATED how they felt. I was planning to run in them too, but I just couldn't do it.

I've been following Nike Running since 08, and the ZFKs are clearly the most disappointing, imho. Don't get me wrong, the construction process and aesthetics are AMAZING. However, I just can't deal with such a drop-off in comfort.

I have normal width feet and a pretty high arch, if that matters.

Quick question about the White/Black color way... I've found pairs that have a visible white sock liner and some that have a black sock liner. Assuming both are legit, which one was the original release?
 
the multi color traiiners FOR SURE just a sample. cuz i need those over all others

plus where can i find the miami dolphins colorway of the flyknit lunars?
 
Im sure this has been asked before but how do these compare to Free Run 3s? Im looking for a new running shoe and jog 25-40 miles a week

The flyknits offer a lot more support over free runs. I wouldn't run that much in the free runs unless you have done some type of barefoot running or at least work your way up to those distances first.

Thanks for the info, Ill look into getting a pair of flyknits. The only problem is getting myself to spend the extra money. Running in the frees is fine, my current pair has about 6 months of use in them but there starting to show their age. Before I had them I used to do beach workouts 2-3 times a week
 
I'm not sure if I can deal with the "pinching" of the material at the top of the toebox?!? Got an 8.5 instead of a 9 and it's still there so I assume it's normal. I'm going to wear them tonight around the casino and see how they feel and if they don't work I'll have a pair of 8.5 in Electric Green available. We will see......in the process of selling off a bunch of shoes and was gonna make these my new go to shoes cause I love the look.
 
Im looking everywhere for the flyknit racer in volt/black sz 13. Can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks!
