looks like I need new OG laces. F you Monday.
Damn man. So sorry. Looks like you have several splits going. Do you lace them up pretty tight?
- Both versions (padded and unpadded) TTS for MOST people.Are there much differences if at all between version 1 and the newer releases ?
I am looking at these auctions but unsure what to look out for. If someone can shed some light, that'd be great

Thanks for that- Both versions (padded and unpadded) TTS for MOST people.
- OG unpadded versions have oval laces that look great, but become easily untied if you're running in them. New padded versions have ribbon laces that some people don't find appealing (i don't mind them), but are perfect for running.
- Some of those that prefer the OG unpadded like them for aesthetic reasons (minimalistic silhouette). Some of those that prefer the new padded version like them because they are more comfortable/soft on your ankle when running.
Only differences are: 1.) Change from oval laces to flat ribbon laces and 2.) Newer versions have an additional layer of "padding" and fabric around the heel that starts from the first eyelet and goes around the heel cup, it is not very thick but definitely can be felt and seen while wearing.Are there much differences if at all between version 1 and the newer releases ?

1) OG unpadded / oval laces versionThanks for that
I am mainly going for comfort and to be honest, i dont mind the aesthetics much as this will be for gym/running mainly
By padded, you mean the OG does not have the zoom air pads on the heel ?
Any pics of the oval vs ribbon laces ?
It's quite hard to find the black trainer as I live in New Zealand. Should i look at other options or ? Like the lunar 1+

Like the user above said: I'd go with the OG unpadded (but would not pay an exorbitant amount for) if you're wearing them casually. And I'd go with the NEW padded ones for the working out.
Of course its ok. They probably just updated them after receiving feedback from some hardcore runners/users. I've ran in both versions and don't have a problem with either. Except that the OG oval laces sometimes tend to untie themselves after a while.yeah seller is offering $180 paypal invoice shipped for the OG unpadded ones
With that being said, it's still okay to train/work out with the OG unpadded ones, right ? I mean it's not like its just built solely for casual wear only since the OG are still labelled as "trainers" ?
And finally, are there fake flyknits around ?
All versions are definitely fine to work out in, that is what they were made for! No hate at those only wearing with skinny jeans to movies and such lol. A complaint I've heard about the unpadded versions is that the heel tab rubs and can creates cuts/blisters on your achilles. I've never had this problem but I mostly run in my padded pair.yeah seller is offering $180 paypal invoice shipped for the OG unpadded ones

That's kind of backwards. Most of the people complaining about bisters/cuts/bleeding at the heel say its from the raw unpadded version.Unpadded for me. Doesn't make me bleed at the heel when I wear short socks.
I'm down to join one if made. I have backup white trainers and volt trainers that i'll be looking to trade or sell in the future.So we don't have a buy/sell/trade flyknit Facebook group ? Haha
We know. Was just trying to point out that they were put on NDC in "out of stock" status from the get-go.^those blue/pink trainers have been up on RRS for awhile (i think for preorder).
also, i looked around 6pm and that wasn't even there on the site...could just be a place holder

Also, the stock photos on NDC make the CW look a lot better than the stock photo on RRS. Excited to see more photos of the Squadron Blue/Blue Glow Trainers.
