Man...the all black ones are calling me. But not for $200. Anyone know how the flyknit translucent soles perform??? I'm sketchy on the traction...

Its honestly going to depend on your court.
For example, the KD9s with translucent soles resulted in this for one nter

And I was nearly ice skating in the Jordan 31's even though some lame said that if these shoes are good enough for NBA players, then they should be good enough for everyone.

translucent is usually worse for traction if in dusty courts ie almost every court lol.

I found a pair of all white flyknits at the local outlet for $99 plus 20% off. I'm going to spray the **** out of them with stain protector and pray for the best lol. These are .5 size down from the Oreos are bought before and they fit WAY better. I just had to loosen up the laces and allow the flyknit to wrap around my feet when trying on.

Flyknits are best 1/2 size down. My feet slide around too much when playin in my normal size

Yeah that was the problem I had originally. The midsole felt great but I felt some heel slip. .5 Size down feels so much better. These may become my go to lol.

Been trying to skim through the last couple of pages for an answer but couldn't find one. Consensus is half size down in the flyknit version....TTS in the regular base model or are those half size down as well???

Correct. Half size down in the flyknit. TTS in the regular base model

Half down in the Flyknit unless you have a wide foot because it's narrow.. but tts, you'll probably get heel slippage.. just the nature of the full knit upper, so I wouldn't suggest for a wide foot. Tts in non Flyknit but I think the shoe runs a tad long personally if that matters

Got to try the non fly knit version on today and half size down definitely felt a little snug around the forefoot for me. TTS might be the way to go even if there is a little room in the toe area like someone stated above. The zoom in these is
Definitely felt it as soon as I put the shoe on. Will look forward to grabbing a pair on heavy discount and beat them into the ground.

Zoom in the flyknits is amazing. Super comfortable and still pretty responsive. Agreed that the non flyknits feel great too. Def feel the zoom right away. It's bouncy and comfortable without feeling tipsy or strange, just like ordinary non unlocked or non full length zoom should ideally feel. There are some reports of regular hd zoom differences so if you try on a pair that you can't immediately feel the zoom in, try a different pair. Since my hd flyknits went back, I'm going to use my $20 dix cash on some regulars. Can snag a pair for 87

I really like the flyknit version but I just don't like the clear sole. If they come out with some nice colorways with a solid color outsole, I'd really consider copping right away. If they don't then I'm going non flyknit version on heavy discount lol.

I played in my flyknit hyperdunk 2016 this past Sunday and I found them TOO bouncy lol. I felt like I couldn't react as quickly as I wanted to because I was sinking into the shoe a bit. I actually had to replace the stock insole with my Free 4.0 insoles and that did the trick. I think a lot of the bouncy feeling is a result of the thick spongy stock insole. Now that I have a thinner free insole in there I can feel the full zoom which is slightly firmer and theres actually more room in the shoe.
Another thing I notice is that the Oreo colorway, which I played in, has some what of a stiffer upper than the all white pair that I had briefly. Its just a slight difference but I noticed it while trying to break in the Oreo colorway. The while pair I had felt a little softer out of the box but I could have just been a defective pair.
The lockdown was good as long as I tied my heel in tight and I actually enjoyed the proprioceptive feel of the sock. I think Nice actually did a good job with that part unlike the Kobe 9 Highs which to me felt a little restrictive.
Other than that I like them a lot. These don't replace the Jordan XX9s as my favorite shoe but they're solid for me and the look alone will keep them in my rotation. Whats kind of dope about flyknit is that even though its reinforced, its a little more durable than the performance weave Jordan Brand uses. I think I may grab the Grey or Black colorway at some point or both lol.

Do the regular version's upper break in or stretch? Already went a half sz up and its pinching my pinky toe on my right foot like crazy.
