If you have Finishline Reward, you can use $20 off on these, and free shipping too. Last time I checked, it'll cost you $216 after cali tax.

I haven't shopped with finishline all year......

It's either Eastbay (no tax) or NDC.  

But I get free shipping and I live in the Memphis area.  It's like having free next day shipping

Just take the lacelock off then decide if you want the lacelock in the middle top or bottom, lace them. :D

If you want a little hint, the AF1 lows have a lacelock on their laces as well.......you just don't notice that they are there because of where the lacelock is located.  Just look at an AF1 low closely (or AF1 high if you also desire) and look for something "holding on to the laces."

Ended up going with this, will change it up if I deem necessary

Might end up lacing them like this too:

I haven't seen much talk of people actually wearing these. I'm curious to know how they hold up since the first pair I picked up looked like the leather on the back panel was already cracked in the box, and another member posted similar pics of his. I'm worried these aren't going to last long. I'm up north though so I'll be waiting till the snow clears to break these out.

Anyone else that's been wearing these that can report on how the leather is holding up?

Good looking out, however I was late to seeing this and just saw they don't have any 9's left in stock. :frown: I was going to order them and hope they were in better shape than my NDC pair.

I've worn mine three times and the pull tab on the tongue is bleeding onto the liner.  

Also have a little cracking on the midsole on the heel.  

Smh. 

Still love them though, should have picked up a second pair when I had the chance.

for what? you act like thats not gonna happen to the second pair too :lol:
 
Everytime I come into this thread, my defense gets a bit lower.  I don't want to spend the money, but they look so good.

Not acting like it won't happen to second pair because that would be absurd to see something happen once and expect a different result.

Your acting like I can't be a fan of a shoe and want to have a pair on ice for later on down the road.

you do realize its going to bleed regardless even if you save a pair on ice for later right?

and chances of cracking paint go up even higher over time without any midsole movement?

if you dont want that maroon to bleed from the tongue i suggest you tape up the white areas of the inside of the shoe

You do realize you're stating facts and others are aware of these facts, right?

I'm giving my opinion on how it sucks that these things are happening so quickly, which I am entitled to do.

i think you guys have a misunderstanding.

as far as the color bleed, maybe someone can try to wash the tongue liner with cleaner first to get rid of excess coloring first. just a thought. 
 
This is a pic from an earlier post, but my kicks have these creases a little worse in 2 different parts of the shoe. Is it something to worry about? Should I take the shoe in to try to exchange while I still can? Or are they all good. I don't want them to crack on my after 6 months. Just wondering if anybody has experience with these signs on leather.

Edit here is my shoe:

@SoCalHoss  you can exchange them if you like, but don't expect any difference. softer leather will get imperfections. it is inevitable .

imperfections are fine, i don't care about that. But are those more likely to crack is my question. I would rather not have a crack on my shoes idc about creasing.
