What part of the shoes bleed? I looked at my pair and didn't see anything wrong with them.

I wish there was a split heel counter option on mi adidas like the rip city pair.

But are they worth it? 2.0 just a superior shoe in all factors, no? For such a small price more?

Havent tried the 2 yet but the Lillard 1 and CL Boost 2015 are my top 2 from last year. But i like minimal shoes so
Both shoes are roomy so i wear the speed wraps and they're perfect. Im starting to wonder if i need to go half size up on nikes

Head to head I think the only thing the 1 is better at is transition. It's one of the best I've experienced with that oversized outsole. I feel like it sits lower to the ground too, but not everyone likes that.
Possibly traction is better in a variety of settings as well, but the 2 isn't bad by any means.
That outlet price is wack though, considering some colorways were like $60 on their website not too long ago.

Those easter are sweet. Adidas add the LMTD tag in the box?

My custom MiAdidas versions came in last Friday to me in Canada, ordered Feb 1, so just under 5 weeks.
A few things:
- Shoes came in a plain black with 3 white stripe adidas box and a little Mi Adidas bag
- Overall craftsmanship seems fine
- missing the Continental tire logo on the outsole... i'm hoping they still used it. They're sticky as hell at least.
- The Lace Jewel trailblazers logo is very small and pixely
- I was hoping to go for a clean discrete look, however the patterned jacquard and leather trim have alot of contrast even though they're both black.
Honestly I think I prefer the Rip City pair with a cleaner overall look, however when I was considering them there was talk of defects on that colorway and adidas had the mi versions at the same price on adidas.ca... i think it only lasted a few days before they made the mi's an additional $20.

ill thanks for sharing! Is the leather trim edges of the eyestay (where the leather was cut noticeably white or the flash made it out to be that way? On the GR it is black/dark grey.
The black jacquard looks to be identical to the Aways so if you saw those then that's what to be expected.

Thanks for posting! Mine are similar to that but in white. Probably have another month to wait but will post updated pics. Chose this route for $125 over paying $125 for Rip City. If I like the performance, may grab the Rips as well if still available. Wish they would have given materials options for the trim like you said, instead of just leather.

It's more of a grey than white on the leather trim edges.
Yes the jacquard is exactly like the aways with the black/grey pattern and I should have expected the same, however when you're customizing on mi adidas it looks more like a black on black pattern.
The black laces seem like the only ones on mi that don't have a black accent (looks like they do on mi)... they're just plain black flat laces. I usually find these type untie often for me, so I'm gonna swap them out for the padded oval type. In case anyone's wondering, I measured the stocks at 51", which seems rare.
Also, the lace jewel appears to be made of aluminum in case anyone was wondering.
In hindsight now to clean things up I would have made the heel cup black, chose the red laces with black accent, black splash on the midsole instead of white, and an NBA logo on the lace jewel as it probably has a better chance of being legible as the trailblazers logo is just too detailed to go on something that small.

I don't think they use continental rubber for gum bottoms as mine did not have those markings. Delivery took around 5 weeks and craftsmanship is on point.

Is the name and number embroidered xelamander?
Damnit Adidas! On the Mi site that customization looks ridiculously small, like 1/5th the size of above... definitely would have gone that route after seeing the above.

Nice pics of the mi adidas pairs! Convinced me to finally pull the trigger on my pair but now they've removed the navy heel option so I can't order what I had in my cart View media item 1942221

Came out like the rendering. Didn't you make a Lebron XI the same color blocking?
I think it is Continental probably just left out the branding to save cost.
That yellow heel is sweet, if they had yellow outsole I'd make something similar. Ya'll got me tempted to order the $125 priced pair with a 15% code but as soon as I order the 30% will surface.

Can someone tell me do feet get hot in the models with the jacquard upper? (rip city, away's)
I want them for casual wear but that internal bootie got me sceptical about heat escaping

Hey guys,
First time posting on Niketalk. I normally post on sole collector but since they updated the site, my goto forum is gone.
Nice to see people like the Lillards here.
What are your thoughts on this miAdidas cw:
There's something about USA themes that make go crazy lol. Any thoughts on this CW?

I'm not a big fan of red shoes or floral themes but these are probably the best from any brand I've seen. The floral pattern is lowkey enough but still shows the flowers if you look closely. Kinda like an ink blot test.

Good color blocking, yet comes across as a little busy with all the grooves and textures on the midsole and he'll tab. Would love to have the floral pattern become an option in Mi Adidas though, definitely lots of potential with the print.
