Official KD VII (7) Thread Updated Technology/Look Info and Release Dates

[thapointguy]

Are the insoles glued on like the iDs? I felt a bump on the forefoot on two of my iDs, I think the zoom bag is inflated or something, but it's glued on I tried to take it out any how and it ripped the insole slightly so I stopped.

^ exactly. Once hype gets stirred up for a model, it usually sticks for the rest of the CW's, too. Hopefully the 7's have avoided that..

hmm I dunno... there was hype for the GG's but that's about it.  These gold medals were slept on.  I went at opening and was first in line at HOH here.  Only one other guy and they let him grab doubles.  I think the next big CW will prob be christmas unless they turn out bad.  I wasn't a fan of the 5's or 6's.  The 4's were the last decent xmas release for me.  Then on to aunt pearl and ASG.

I think people are more worried about the DB Collection tomorrow. :x :x Good God I want absolutely nothing to do with that

It'll be quick. Only ATC and nots need apply.

I think it was just a low key Saturday followed by Black Friday shenanigans (Foams and Jordans).

Anyone have pairs that have wrinkled midsoles?

Mine somewhat it doesn't really bother me too much tho

My 35k the insoles are removeable but lightly sticky

Gotta be gentle when removing insoles

If the Kobe and Lebron pairs are any indication...it isn't looking good for KD

I liked the Christmas V. The VIs looked like Dorothy's slippers.

 

[zeroregret]

Welp...  here's mine

 

[maxsand]

9 is a great size, not many people on them 9's

I noticed that a bunch of pairs had this...  some of them are worse than others.  One of the pairs I saw looked like someone took sandpaper to it

 

[digiballs]

Now we need to see the Christmas joints, and get a release date for the black suede!

 

[2minuteman]

Pass on the suede.

 

[mcgregor triangle]

half size up works perfect for me.. fat feet, and straps don't mix to well most of the time 

Lol I actually have wide feet, too. For example, can't wear Kobe 9 FK lows, KD IV's were a no go, KD VI's are narrow for me, too. Need a size 11 in those.
I have an 11 in Global games, and originally grabbed these gold medals in an 11. Got home, realized that, for me, the extra length was just making them feel too weird. Went back and exchanged for 10.5 (interestingly they still had 2 pairs of 10.5's left around 1:30), and realized the cushioning felt much better because it was cushioning where it was "supposed" to lol. Anyway, yeah, it's a tragic love affair when your favorite shoe brand is generally known for making narrow shoes!

I liked the XMAS 6. They were the same color blocking as the previous Lebrons.

The 5s were a really weird digi pattern. That year, I thought it was the third best behind the Kobe's and Lebrons. But the design was cool. But I hate the 5s. They're ugly (love the details on the ASG though).

 

[tigo0240]

The only Vs I have left are Christmas, Splatter, BHM, and ASG.

 

[spiderjericho]

In hindsight, glad I passed on the BHMs. I only liked the ASGs and DMVs. Guess the WTKD were limited but terribly ugly like the Brons.

 

[zeroregret]

For the VI's...  I only picked up the Aunt Pearls, WTKD's and ASG/Illusions.  I picked up a couple of the elites... supremacy, heroes and golds

 

[tigo0240]

V EYBLs are fire though, forgot I had those. VI EYBLs weren't as available nor enticing.

Size 9.5 Gold Medal on display at HoH Chandler, AZ. Looks like they had at least 2. One on display in the glass case in the front and one on display where all the KD's were. Did not ask if they had other sizes. They do look nice. Had my doubts but probably one of the top CWs so far. Would have cop but it's hard times trying to cop sneakers with the wife and family there.

 

[lewi1913]

 

Naw if KD starts goin hard in the paint like last season they will start sellin again, never fells, kids love KD

True



On court shot. Must be stressed again that these are TTS. Got to put up with very minor discomfort first, but it's a small price to pay for how good they feel once broken in. Think I need to invest in some navy socks, though. Black socks throw these off IMO. Close to navy yet oh so far away lol..

I got these...
