CE are widely known to have a thin/weak rubber compound. Def not those for outdoor.

Outsole on my Pioneers are holding up well, I use them for indoor only. But I can see some areas starting to flatten out. I wouldn't recommend them for outdoor. Can't speak on the Kyries.

If you like the CLB 2016, I'd go with those, just make sure to get pair with Continental rubber.
 
Soon

Kyrie 3 , Crazy explosive or harden vol 1 for outdoors? anyone try the vol 1 for outdoors?

All of those are going to be shredded outdoors, I think you're better off going with Mentality2 or Hyperdunk nonFK on deep discount for outdoors.

Imma be a star gonna restock?

Thanks
I've played in the CE and Harden Vol. 1 outdoors and I agree with the above posts that they will wear down very quickly. For me, they were very nice while they lasted and that BOOST really helps with the impact of an outdoor court, but durability of the traction is definitely an issue. Luckily for myself, I rotate my shoes pretty heavily because I do play mainly outdoors and know how brutal that is on those soft rubber outsoles, so it wasn't so bad. But if you're only looking to use one outdoor shoe then Continental Rubber would be a great choice. I can't speak to those Nike recommendations because I haven't personally played in those outdoors, but I have heard good things about the Mentality 2. 
 
FootLocker just cancelled my ibas back order from a few weeks ago. I feel like they should compensate me in some type of way since they held my money for a few days.
I'm thinking about calling them to complain. Has anyone ever received a discount code, coupon or gift card from them for something like this? Or would it be a waste of time to call?

kind of makes me glad i decided not to buy them for whatever reason when they had that restock.

that being said, they currently seem to have some sizes of the christmas pair in stock and other sizes on backorder with an expected ship date of today if anyone is looking for those.

I have not received a cancel notification yet and I was suppose to receive mine on the 19th

footlocker doesn't charge till they ship the product.  they've also cancelled my back order of IBAS, and they haven't charged my credit card.
 
 
Picked up the Pioneer colorway when the Xhibition deal was posted. Got my first run in them today... and have nothing but good things to say about em.

I stayed TTS, and there was a little bit more volume in the toe box than what I'm used to compared to my true size 12 in Nikes. Weird but it wasn't really the length that bothered me but rather the height of the toe box. After double socking, which I normally do any way I was good to go. I found them to be very similar to the CLB 2016, which are one of my go to hoop shoes (after adding an extra eyelet to eliminate the heel slip)...biggest difference being that the Continental rubber sole on the CLB is money while the traction on the Harden was just good, not great. BTW, didn't notice the weight of the shoe while playing in them unlike the D Rose 7 for example.  

Looking forward to another run in these later on this week!
did the extra eyelet help with the clb?
Heel slip pretty much nonexistent now
 
Good looking
These releases have been soo sloppy.. Still dont have any word on which stores these are even dropping in and it's 2 days away.. Smh
these are gunna be everywhere don't stress should be like pioneer home disruptors
 
Yeah I don't think it'll be difficult.. Just pretty annoying how these release dates get switched weeks before the drop.. As long as I get em I'm coolin
