i Feel like Nike has trained us to hold out for discounts :lol:. Even for Kyries at the $120 price point, we all know discounts will be had


Like I'm interested in the new elite lebrons and tbh i dont care at all if they're 250, ill just wait till they're 150

I swear I'll drop it on this, but the heel shape bothers me a bit... if anyone has tried the Lillard 1, the shape of the back of the heel just doesn't wrap around your ankle well and it gave me problems.  Not saying it will for sure be the same here, but it is very similar in looks where it doesn't sit flush w/ the heel.  Note pic above, thanks Grizz

hmmm that looks like an issue. I need lockdown and a snug fit

yep looking at that picture, that is quite a bit of space between the heel and fabric. unless someone reviews early, these it won't be until around June 20th, for the normal consumer to give feedback.

But yeah that does look way to loose  
 
so far they already looking better than the KD 8, kinda of a mixture of Hyperrev 2015 and KD 8 with fused FK

The more detailed pics make it look like a flyknit roshe/lillard 2 hybrid, as far as the upper is concerned
 
Forgive me NT Fam, but I'm looking at the on foot photo, is it me or does there seem to be minimal ankle support, I might be overlooking it.
 
It's a low top.

Alot shoes are moving away from firm ankle support, they feel like they can achieve the same thing with lockdown.
 
These cannot come fast enough! I need those MC and an ID when they drop and most likely aways

these look like they will slide right off his feet lol they arent even wrapping around his ankle.. reminds me of the problems that people had with the lillards and that like sock type of feel
 
i dont get how you add full length zoom and add flyknit and deduct the price from past years model by 30... probably bc KD's sales are the worst between all nike pro athletes with sig models... just my opinion

Idk but if these really are $150, and IDs are below $200 these will sell like crazy.
 
As you can see somewhat in these pictures there is padding under that collar in the back making it not sit flush with the back of the foot at the top. It should have decent lock down but we will see that when the time comes

For a new sig these are getting a lot of love...usually its a lot of hate followed by the aforementioned turn

I'm in the minority that's actually liked the past couple of KD models, even though the price point was very questionable on a few (7 and 8

).  These are by far my favorite shoe of 2016 and they're not even out yet.  Hopefully the traction isn't anything like the 8 and this may be the perfect model.

Maybe not among all per-say, but out of the basketball sigs he was definitely in last place the past two sales quarters.  Basically EVERY KD 8 hit some form of discount and are able to be had for almost 50% off at this point
