I found that. I meant in terms of shipping it back, filling out paperwork, etc.

I'm just going to call them later

Has anyone ran with their flyknit trainers(padded) and got their achilles blistered up?  I was looking into it and thought that only the unpadded trainers cut up the heel but I guess not.
 
If anyone needs the MC racers in an 11 let me know before I contact Runners Roost to figure out how to return them
 
I don't get this. Why do so many people return their MC racers? I feel like Ive seen this so many times in this thread
 
cause people buy multiple pairs to put together the color combo they want

11.5 felt too big so I returned those and got an 11 from Runners Roost and they were a little too snug so I've decided to send them back

Thanks for answering. I guess it's a sizing thing then. I thought a lot of people were having problems with something else

I owned a pair of unpadded trainers and wore them without any problems, then had my heels completely blistered and bloodied when I received my 2nd pair of trainers (Black/White) that were padded. It didn't help that I had ankle socks that only partially covered my heel, but I was used to wearing low socks with FKs. Aside from the aesthetics of the padded that many complain about, my main concern was the bloody heel that the new padded versions brought. I took pics and was ready to send in my complaints to Nike.

I wear thicker "crew"" or higher socks with padded trainers. Your heel gets used to the padded back after a few wears. It's like breaking in a pair of wingtips/dress shoes.
 
Does anyone have a photo of the inside of the tongue on the white/ black unpadded trainers with the black trim ?

I've heard a small amount of cases like this. Weird though, cause waaaay more people were getting blisters/cut/bloodied/etc etc from the unpadded versions. Which is why they added the padding in the first place.

I guess Nike will have to figure out a new collar design. And even then I bet someone will get ankle cuts...LMAO

^ yeah I was one of those people to have their heel totally destroyed by the unpadded trainers. Was super pumped when the first gen trainers came out and thought I had found my new go to average workout running shoe. Got in unpadded blacks and broke them in for about a week before deciding to go on a 5k run in them. Wearing ankle socks that more than covered my heel I set off, halfway thru I could feel the back of my heels burning but I decided to just push through the pain and finish the run. Got home and immediately ripped them off and my previously white socks were completely stained red with blood in the back. Took close to a month before I could go on another halfway decent run again. Honestly it pissed me off and I complained to nike about it. Sorry if you guys who only wear flyknits for aesthetics got pissed off by them adding padding, but you can't expect to have my same situation happen to a bunch of people that are actually using the shoe for its intended purpose and have nike do nothing about it. It turned me and I'm sure a bunch of other runners off of using the shoe for actually running.
