Am I the only one who dislikes the Meteorology VI ? Those colors just don't go well together IMO. Next up for me besides my iDs will be the NYC66's. That's a much better CW ! Hopefully they're GR

I didn't like them either until I got a close up look of them with a quality camera the olive color fits well with the pink/red color and the upper is 3m but I agree the orange one is the best colorway so far.

I liked em at first until more pics surfaced the net. they kinda look like a GS version for girls IMO. I'll pass on these and looking forward to the bamboo cw hopefully

He VIs are smokin hot. There will be a few new additions to my collection. And it'd be nice if they made a blk/blk pair for daily use.

prob won't come out with a black/black unless you ID them. I don't think the V's came out with an all blacked out pair. I could be wrong tho

I bought them to hoop in and there are a couple areas I'm just a little concerned with. Around the perimeter where the upper meets the midsole and on the tongue where is rests against your ankle (more to the inside of the foot).
As long as they hold up I am very pleased with this shoe

Picked mine up on release day. Very happy with this shoe as it is a very light shoe and comfortable. I felt that this shoe fits TTS. Look forward to picking up multiple color ways.

I've been out of the sneaker loop for so long I forgot about the nike id option. Thanks for the reminder Lou.

Does the tongue dig into any if your guys legs? I know the kobe 8 has a thin tongue but the to hue on these move to the side so I'm not sure

I haven't had a problem so far, the tongue on these is way more flexible than the k8's

Yea, the tongue is a flimsy piece of plastic. It wont bother you at all.

I love this shoe already, I'm an avid soccer fan and being a KD Sig just straight bliss. If the Kobe 9 are as good as the 8 then there is going to be a problem this upcoming season.. Smh. Low key I'm hoping that the kb9 are just a decent shoe..yall can keep those trash looking lebums.

^ Tried on a pair today. For casual wear, cushioning in nowhere near KB 8s, but fit/comfort is a huge improvement over the KD Vs.

Definitely a great review..so it seems that the KD VI is goin to perform better outdoors as opposed to a gym floor (we all know that most gyms don't have clean floors)..the cushionin is great out of the box IMO..and it seems like it will breathe more than the KD IV and KD V..
Hopin to have my Seat Pleasants next week sometime..and I will also have acquired my "Pre-Heat" KD VIs next week too
..gonna use the Seat Pleasants as an outdoor basketball shoe..

Im sticking with both
Lol yup. The 8 is my favorite shoe but I will welcome the KD VI into the collection.
I dont think my order from Bodega has even shipped yet, there's only a label been created on the tracking status. I'm anxious to get these because I don't know how they will fit I had to go with the 10.5. It's good that these are sitting because I can always return the 10.5 and pick up an 11 or 11.5 somewhere else. Love the color way on these

Tried these on yesterday, liked how they felt a lot more than the KD V. Not nearly as comfortable as the Kobe 8s, and those are only 10 more. I will probably still scoop up the meteorologys though.

Did these ppl at Bodega take a 3 day weekend or something lol. Same boat for my pair.
And I'd recommend going half size up on these, at the very least.

The sizing is always a matter of preference. I say true to size. Every shoe takes a couple wears to break in. I can't stand when a shoe is to big and my foot slides inside it
