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

[raptorsundefeated]

The plastic part on the PS model should be Hyperposite on the actual shoe I believe based on earlier reports in this thread. Hyperposite in the heel and the mid-foot strap should give the VII superior lockdown. Can't wait to see and try them on.

They dont look like 4s and 6s combined to me. They look like low kd2

Thats a Pre-School size 3 though. So the mens size will look drastically different TYBG.

don't like the strap on the shoe. Hopefully these VII's come strapless like the VI.  Highly Doubt it now

I didn't like them at first, but I could see these being a nice low top hoop shoe. I will definitely pick one up to play in

 

[eltouha]

is the same guy designing these and the lebron 12? what's with the one piece upper/tongue thing going around?

Apparently many people do, just comb through NT and you will see that, and just because they do, doesn't mean they take pics or want to resell. Personally I don't care about creasing, I'm just alluding to the fact that these newer materials crease less than leather.

Yeah bro agree witchu. And I think most collectors and casual wearers complain about newer material and think back on the good ol leather days but performance wise since I mainly ball in my shoes and that's my intended purpose for purchasing, I love the newer materials like em on Kobe's and hyperfuse. They are straight played out since nike slaps the same tech on a lot of models at once but they are way lighter material then leather. Never liked ballin in leather kicks personally. Now if I try to ball with an older pair, it feels so heavy, clunky, and not breathable at all. Personally, I like the kd 6 the best out of the kd line. Performance wise for me would out of what I own are 6, 3, 5, 4. 4s look good but were so uncomfortable for me. I stand by the kd 6. Love them. If the 6s had better traction it'd be in heaven.

 

[ham182]

No longer about that stuff, all about performance for them now. Its nice for ball players but for those collecting or just to rock, not so good

exactly. Totally agree.

I can see id options being pretty sick for this shoe. I'm liking the 7 based on these ps pics. Excited to see mens pics like everyone else. Definitly feelin it so far imagining what the mens size could be.

 

[unclerukus]

More dollar store uppers from Nike I see. These are looking worse than the LeBron's 

 

[CHAOSE57]

I kinda like em can't wait for the men's

What fam? It's been confirmed that these would have straps for at least a month or two. Hope as you may, the strap is here to stay.

KD VII on Finish Line release calendar already 6/28. Can't wait.

 

[sunshineblotters]

Who worries about creasing besides IG pics after one wear and sell type boys?

And I've seen creases on the kd 6's that I've never seen like before. Literally the entire shoe was creased

I don't like creases if they appear too fast. I should be able to cop a pair of shoes and be good until they retro 8-12 years from when I bought them. Now I have to pick up re re re re retroes that drop 3 years apart

I don't care about yellowing tho. Nettings, midsoles and outsoles can turn brown for all I care as long mesh and the upper are stay cream given a reasonable amount of care.
