Nike Flyknit Lunar 2

What do y'all think of my Nike iD design (not that it'll ultimately sway my decision one way or the other:smile:?

Can't decide if I want to go for a GR CW or Nike iD.  I'm not super thrilled about any of the original CWs but the iD is super expensive!  Maybe one of the GR CWs will grow on me after I try them on in person.

Bonus point to whomever gets the quote from my iD poster.

j/k!  A lot going on with that c/w. IMO you should get a GR c/w since it will be cheaper (especially when they hit clearance).
 
I really like the wolf grey ones. if they are pretty comfy like the Lunar1's, I might wait for the rest to go on sale and with coupons, price should be manageable. I see myself picking up multiple pairs around the last quarter of the year.
 
these look good in motion in the video

blue green looks much better than on the trainer

will cop if it drops 100 or below
 
At what point are you all thinking that the FKL2 will drop to $100 or below?  Like, a year from now, as the FKL1s are right now?  

Consensus being that the 2nd round of the GR CWs will drop around the end of March?
 
If they have a similar run like the F1s, three months is a good estimate. I remember seeing a few F1 cws at the outlets around May last year.

Yikes!  Not a 2nd round of GRs until May?!  That's a long time to wait!  Ugh!
 
Ashton Eaton said that the F2s have an attached tongue in a recent video. I guess Nike had a lot of complaints about the tongue sliding...

good deal. I was looking at some of the pics closely and it looks like the tongue might be a little long now. haha... at least I think it shouldn't burn your skin from rubbing since the material is pretty soft.

Nice! Where did you pick them up?  Did you have the 1's before?  If so, how do they compare?  Pros/cons list? :smile:

Person I know works at one of the large sneaker stores. Shoes came in today and he didn't "realize" there was a release date and "accidentally" sold me a pair.

Have several pairs of Lunar 1. Hands down one of my favorite shoes Nike has ever made. I have worn the 2's for a couple of hours, comfortable, but not at comfortable as the 1's. To me, the seem more rigid.

Thanks for the feedback.  Update again after a few days of wear!  Much obliged!
 
These are definitely not the women's launch cw because their upper midsole is a lighter grey and the collar is Black.

I am wondering what CW this is? I dont think it's the Wolf Grey, seems more like a black on the top, right? Sometimes Instagram can throw off the colors though of course...

I wore my flyknit lunar 1s today for the first time in months and immediately began to think about the tongue sliding problem. I actually didn't mind the ribbon laces but I am definitely happy to hear that they use an attached tongue for these.
 
I sort of want the Wolf's but will reserve the final judgement until I can actually try them on in-store and see how they look/ size up.

I dont know Ray, it looks pretty spot on compared to the catalog pic on Page 2. Either way, that's definitely the cleanest colorway yet :smokin

I do wish the swoosh was black though. I'm definitely coppin at least one pair of the F2's. Hopefully, they sit around like the F1's and go on sale.

Haha I want to believe you and I do notice the differences as well, but catalog pics could be slightly off right? I just want them to be a part of the first launch.

RW seems to have 4 of the colorways (2 men's, 2 women's) on their site. Available 2/6, but for those wanting them under retail, runblog10 will get them to 135 + lightning fast shipping.

It wouldn't be the first time that an early catalog picture didn't look exactly like the final product.

Example: Sail/Volt-Black Flyknit Racers

778184


778185


Top: Initial catalog picture that RRS even posted during pre-orders.

Bottom: Updated catalog picture and what the shoe actually ended up looking like.

Big differences but for the most part, same colors. I think if the color-way is similar enough, most likely it's the same shoe. But I could always end up being wrong.

Either way, agreed that it/they are the best looking color-way so far. ;]
