1.the sole at the back of my orange racers(the left shoe only) got like destroyed...I am kinda overweight but its strange since i wore these like 30 times...and one or two actually for running .Anyone had any similar experience?they are stil wearable,but the black part on the back of the sole got like inflated\(it looks like the air bubble inside bursted or sth)
2.anyone know what the release date for the multi trainers in europe is?

After a lot of wears with both racers and trainers my opinion is that design-wise racers come on top but trainers are the more comfortable one.I believe that this changes from person to person.As i said i have extra weight,and the trainers have air soles in the back and n the front providing more comfort to me.Racers are a more beautiful shoe though ( another opinion of course not a fact).180 euros retail is killing me ,thank god i can get them on discount or sth like this.Funny thing is my first flyknit(volt trainer) came free and by mistake from nike.com.How could i not fall in love with the shoe.,lol.

Yeah I got it after going back and forth with customer service for the horrible quality on a pair of Lebrons that I got.

What size are you?

Hey guys i know this has probably already been covered in the thread, but just recently racked up the money to finally get a pair of these bad boys.

Just curious on a few things:
Differences between the Lunar 1+, Racer and Trainer? And how each one fits?
Also if i were to get a wmns cw, what size should I be looking at if i'm a 9 in most jordans, besides narrow ones like the 11's im a 9.5.

If anyone can help me out in any of those ^ it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advanced!

For size go with that 9. Lunar, racer, trainer is doesn't matter. Women's size would be 10.5 (somebody reconfirm this please)

The differences comfort wise I personally think the lunars are the best because of the lunar midsole. Ppl prefer racers over trainers for longer periods of wear. (I can't personally confirm this because I haven't really worn my racers for longer walking wear yet)

Technology differences the rest of the guys need to chime in because they know what has the full zoom and all that good stuff.

Aesthetically: *takes a huge breathe*

Lunars+:
Padded ankle (some overseas pairs don't but it's rare)
Ribbon/flat laces
Lunar midsole
Bulkiest shoe out of the flyknit family

Racer:
All are Unpadded
Has somewhat of a lower profile look to it (think of a Lamborghini overalli sits low and looks longer compared to a dropped Evo and whatnot)
Pre MC era the laces were oval/round ones. Now they are flat ribbon

Trainer+:
The GREATEST OF THEM ALL!! (Jkjk I'm Trainer > racers)
They used to be Unpadded ankles but now they all come with padded ankles (look up on google and you will see what I'm saying)
They used to be oval laces but now they are ribbon. But ppl who have recieved their MC trainers said the laces are equivalent to Vans laces (thicker than flat ribbon)
The body line from the ankle through the toe box is like a 45 degree ankle rather than the racers almost flat horizontal look from the ankle to the toe box.

If you want oval/round laces try new balance and kiwi laces. Length 45

That should sum it up for you

I know I slept...but does anyone happen to know a site where I could get the MC Racers in a size 13? I did a stock locate with the Nike number and nothing came up. I also looked through this thread a bit and didn't see a link to anything for that size.


Thanks,

At this point your only options are to hang tight in hopes of an NDC FSR or hit the bay and try to find a good price among the vast resellers
 
I got lucky yesterday. In the morning I called NDC to stock locate a size 11 of the MC Racers. They told me NikeNYC had a pair. Called them up and they said they had an 11.5. I decided to take it even though I'm a true 11 (heard they run small). I work graveyard so I stalk NDC every time I use my phone. Saw the size 11 and was able to check out with the two Kobe 8 iD's I had in my cart. I'll let you guys know what fits best and most likely get rid of one pair.

I saved the MC Racer page as a bookmark so I know to open it every time I use Safari. That's how I know these restocks happen.
From personal experience, in the past two weeks I've been working and stalking NDC, they're random restock happens between 0230 - 0430 PST. That's what I've been seeing every time. Hopefully this helps. But don't lose sleep over shoes. I'm already awake and that's why I'm on my phone so early in the morning.
