These are looking nice:

Overall, I really like the shape and tooling of these.  Looks like a solid model, especially at discount.  

Only phylon in the heel but I don't think this is a huge surprise and won't be a deal-breaker for me.  I'm interested in scooping a pair at discount when they come down.

That Red Hook Sunset color way is the best imo.

I'm gonna update this thread tonight

Do not pay full price for these. They will get marked down quick.

I like this shoe but I really wish they give us a true Knicks colorway.

 

[kunk75]

why? he will be gone before the trading deadline.

 

[monstar]

this shoe like the M10 will be a performance beast. I will wait for it hit clearance outlet before i cop

i love the m10s

hopefully they improve the sizing on these on M10s I went a half size down

 

[freeagencytv]

They're ok. Colorways will matter.

exactly. This was the problem with the M10

why? he will be gone before the trading deadline.

no. No one can take on that large contract but the Knicks.

No heel zoom is a deal breaker for me. That's too bad

 

[AllGrails]

These look great, bad timing but prob good to hoop in.

What's the best shoe to hoop in right now for a 2 guard?

 

[ironmike]

$160 for a bball shoe with only forefoot Zoom? 

 

If they perform as well as past Melo models, I'll probably pick em up once the price drops.

These came out great and look like performance beasts. Tbis is the best shoe JB makes right now in my opinion.

This

Black and gold is pretty nice also

I would get a pair on deep discount

 

[jocruz89]

Look about like the XX9 from a performance standpoint. 

 

[awm412]

I like these a lot more than the M10, especially the black and gold colorway. These may be my next purchase for playing since I like flight plate but don't want to pay the $225 for the XX9. Looking forward to reading the reviews of these.

 

[si3n4]

These look like they would have been the Fly Wade 3. The black/gold is very smooth looking. Will probably pick up a pair as a cheaper alt to the XX9s when these go on sale, but I’m definitely more excited about the UA Curry’s…

 

[ginwae]

NDC says the preorders for the 3 models are sold out now...is Nike pulling their trick again??  I was hoping to scoop up the black/gold colorway on the low

 

[duke40]

Christmas color should be here tomorrow. Will post pics ASAP.

Nice!

 

[kingjay718]

Red Hook Sunset pair would have been cool if the fade on the ankle was orange.

 

[Olympus]

Those BHM M10s are still the my favorite Melos of all time. Regret not picking a pair up when they went on sale.

These aren't bad though. Black/gold CW is nice. Interested in the Christmas CW.

 

[duke40]

I loved the BHM 9. Only got the all star and YOTH 10 but the materials are classic. Hope these are just as good in that respect.

Contemplating on copping these at release or waiting for the price drop

I heard these were the XMas CW. They have a real leather upper compared to the other CWs' synthetic leather.

 

[duke40]

All true ^^^

 

[iks mod]

^Looking forward to your thoughts Duke

I held out on the M10 mainly because I had a couple pairs of the xx8 and SE and couldn't justify picking them up at the time.  Loving the XX9 and it would be interesting to play in more traditional upper materials with the similar unlocked zoom setup.

no. No one can take on that large contract but the Knicks.

Someone can, but to everyone would do it now that he's having knee problems from all the mileage.
