Nike Kyrie III

Wild guess here but could the "Duke" pair be the All Star then?
Would also match the pics of the new all star kit shown the other day.

Scrap that, just seen there is a KD 9 releasing the same day with very similar colours.

Footlocker is advertising the Warning pair as Flytraps (kids) over here in the UK.

For the samurai pair? That's why I absolutely despise FTL.com backorder madness
Yup I got the email an hour before I posted. It said they have 2 weeks from yesterday to ship it and there is the chance of cancellation which is what I'm expecting

The All Star jerseys haven't matched the kicks since 2011

Side note: This year's All Star jerseys suck. Looks like Adidas is phoning it in since Nike is taking over soon.
 
saw these in person today.

CWs will make this shoe,


that reddish color is niiiice. i didnt even notice the black pair
 
Maybe the id is coming all star week with an all star option, not sure tho just speculating hope it comes asap
 
Wasn't the first cw on the Kyrie 2 the Effect? ID for the 2 dropped on Dec. 9th, and the Effect released on the 15th. I was trying to see how long it took ID to drop on the 2's but was really fast if not before.
 
Tried these on in the store and my first impressions are that they're really stiff. 

Forefoot is similar to the 2's - the 'motorcycle tyre' feel.

Didn't really feel the Zoom in the heel unit.

Definitely TTS.

Traction is definitely the selling point of the shoe (performance wise).

Might wait to cop on discount.

Thinking of trying the Peak TP IV

Jahron from WT loves those TP IV

Would you say the forefoot was TOO stiff? As in a deal breaker?

Here is all I am saying (and I will probably buy a pair of 3's cuz I love Kyrie), Nike could have released either of these shoes as the 3's and sold the same. They did nothing to the 3's to make me say "got to have". They look like many other new or older Nike releases and don't even have anything special to make them shout "sig shoe". Just my two cents (yes an opinion so don't go gettin' all mad) on whey this shoe us underwhelming to me.

Basically they put the money into a Zoom unit for one and put the money into looks/design in the other + $10(?).

To me Kyries are all about the looks and/or traction. If you're looking at Kyries those should be your priorities.
 
The problem is they LOOK THE SAME!! Kyrie's might have some weird plastic burst, but other than that they are very similar.
