i think there's something people didn't take into consideration, i do believe that there is 2 themes just like last yr, last yr the sigs were based off of NYC buildings, while NSW was based off of constelations "Shine On: The Nike Sportswear 2015 Constellation Collection. Five boroughs, four quarters, one city." so obviously judging by the foams the NSW is Northern Lights while the sigs will be.....

I've only played in mine twice (BHM solid outsole) so I can't say it's a full assessment, but traction is definitely a downer and I don't see it getting much better... it's too bad because I like the shoe otherwise.  Just going to be hard for me to stick with these when I have other models that I can rely on for solid grip.  

I shouldn't speak to soon because I know we just started w/ these, but I'm thinking it's just going to be an iD w/ full length zoom and done for me -- so I can toss that midsole into my 8s/9s w/ better grip

Good info. I kind of still think its too early. Maybe the EMs will have improved traction. Who knows.

I'm with you on buying a pair of IDs with full zoom and thats it. The Insole is way better than the last 2 drop-ins but it wont be worth having multiple colorways if the traction sucks. They're not that much different from the 9s.

Yeah I don't want to write them off just yet, but it's tough when there is not much better about them except the option of paying 265 for full length zoom (yes you get a custom colorway... but still).  Agreed that the stock insert is pretty solid
 
Ordered me some black flat wax laces with gold aglets to do a lace swap on my achilles pair. Had to get a longer set of laces because my laces are barely tying when I put on the shoes. Will update when laces arrives.

Where can I get laces with gold tips




The traction is cool with me. Squeaks and really sticks
