I don't hate the GCRs. They're a nice colourway, nothing I`m crazy for to be honest. If they drop in North America, I might go for them. If not thats fine. I've said it before, as long as Black Horses deliver, I could not care for these GCRs.

What annoys me about the GCRs is the people trying so hard to push them. We get it, you paid resell, you feel special and you're trying to justify it. Not to mention the clown saying how resell is $450.

In no way are these better are the Sparks.

black and gold has been used over and over again over the years.

BLs looks great and are the only 11s I own but I find them hard to rock. I'm thinking about selling my pair and sticking with more neutral colors. Any input on how some of you rock your BLs?

only tried my bhm on and already see the flywire underneath the white swoosh but it's not very apparent. How noticeable is it after you play in them?

As a "sneakerhead" i notice it becaue i tend to notice any imperfection but to the casual person they probably wouldnt notice too much. I have only wore them maybe like 6 times just for working out and doing shooting drills and stuff. Havent played in a game with them at all and its showing. First it was on the lateral side swoosh now its showing on the medial on the opposite shoe.

Good to know. So far i own only the bhm and ill probably end up hooping in them if i don't get any EM's for cheap.

As for the GCR, I always thought a solid black upper with white midsole is too plain/generic. So many shoes have white midsoles slapped on and sometimes it doesn't look like it belongs. Started noticing this with the roshe run. But then again, theres gold on the GCR and that definitely helps. From pictures alone, I say FTB looks smoother being all black imo.

How would you guys rank the kobe models you own in terms of comfort for casual wear? I can see the elite 11's to be the most comfy with the flyknit but minus the clunky heel of the 9's.

Another random thought, why so many translucent outsoles? Noticed it with the lebron 12 too but the translucent outsole on these are terrible supposedly. Do they only test shoes on perfect courts?

Still looking for the right black laces. What length u get?
Looks damn good

I'm not really sure but they are actually really short. They aren't tied if u didnt notice. just long enough to make a knot at the ends of the top eyelits and they still fit pretty snug.

The eulogys are fire. Haven't heard much talk about those or maybe i'm not following the thread enough.. Need those and maybe the bruce lees when they get cheaper. Both would be casual only though becuz of the outsole

Finally got Tinkers for $180 off the bay.

USAs are horrible imo. Could've done way better.

GCRs are the only other pair I would buy.

I like em like that. I loose lace all my kicks

my guess-timation is 45'' laces for a size 9.5 shoe size. It would be a pain in the *** to un-do both knot so i used measuring tape. I believe they were my old black laces from my low top chucks.
