Anyways, too bad that sketch looks 100x better than the actual shoe from the pics the other day.

I've got faith that some different colorway's will show that the silhouette is actually pretty good
 
need to see these in hand and cws i cant pas sjudgement just yet but as of right now i sill not be going hard in the paint for these 
 
Yeah sure. Curry D riders will fall in line too. Gross. I'm starting to sense a pattern. The more expensive a Nike gets, the uglier it gets. I wonder if it's really the design or people getting priced out and feel some type of way.

 
I don't own a pair of Curry's. They're just look better to me aesthetically. Nike isn't pricing me out either I'm just unwilling to buy anything they put out just because I feel like a I'm obligated to own a pair of the new sig model like some dudes. Kicks don't grow on me because I don't waste my time sitting in shoe forums 24 hours a day being brainwashed. Nikes new designs are trash. I don't own any Kobe 10's or KD 7's because they're cheeks. I won't be owning any 8's because it's just a continuation of the same garbage.
 
So why does the drawing look better than the real thing?
maybe those could be the elites what we saw....just like one of the 1st pics of the lebron 12's shown was a sample of the elites...and lol at KD's leg looking like an arm, if it wasn't

for the shoe being on i would have asked why does he have a sock on his hand?
 
Man unless there was a completely different design out there, I'm pissed at whoever described these as "think the Magista." There's absolutely no Magista influence in these... got me excited for nothing.

KD said there would be a sock type material going up the leg.  He said it, the forum said to think Magista.  So maybe he was describing the elites or these are the elites and he was describing the regular joints?

I can dig it. I don't see how this design is "cheeks" and the 4 gets constant praise. It's literally a solid piece of material with a strap thrown on. I don't see this great design people speak of. The brainwashing IMO has been done by 4. It just happens to have the two most expensive, sought after and hyped CWs of the entire KD line. Only people who really liked KD 7 and Kobe 10 bought those so far because every pair has basically sat and hit discount.

So who's brainwashed exactly? The 4 is looked back on in high regard because it was cheap and had the most hyped releases of the line so far. 4 being a great design is the brainwashing.

Lebron 8s were god tier. I like the V2s better. Only Lebrons I rock even tho I'm bout that "**** Lebron" life. That shoe is too good to pass up. I like the 10s too but not enough to ignore my "**** lebron" lifestyle.
 
i bet that the KD8 will end up with 2 models just like recent kobes. one being lowtop and the other being hightop and full flyknit and up the leg sock/magista like
 
Meh. I like the concept but the pics of the actual shoe look like a regular Nike basketball model. Looks like a middle school team shoe. Personally the 4 is my favorite model because that shoe is what sparked my interest in shoes and the sneakerhead culture. Maybe some colorways will change my mind but honestly Nike is quickly falling as my favorite brand. Adidas has Boost now if they got a half decent Sig line I would jump on it but the DRose is **** and unorganized and the Dlil is just boring to me. The only thing I like that Nike is doing right now is Flyknit but they are ******* that up to with limited releases and ****** colorways.  Hope KD has a bounce back season. Will he even wear these? Or will he switch back to another shoe? Kinda takes away when the athlete doesnt even wear his own shoe.
