Nike Kyrie III

You guys are right. There is no way that Kyrie plays in the retail version. I LOVE this shoe. I like the close feel of the floor. But there is NO cushion up front at all!! The retail insoles are so stiff. Here are some pics of my different set ups for my black ice's. Full length zoom. Since the shoes has a nice heel zoom already this kinda stacks the heel like Lebron 6s and foamposites. I got the lime green memory foam insoles from some Roshe 2s. The black insoles are from some Nike trainers. They are ortholites. They just as thin as the Kyrie insoles but they are a lot softer. The jordan insoles are super soft. Got them from a pair of Jordan Reveal's. And the zoom pods are from a extra pair of Jordan 2011s. Did a lil work with my lil $10 roto tool. BHMs at still DS. I think imma just get sum extra plush memory foam insoles for them. I plan to keep them as a casual shoe..Nike should at least offer full zoom as a iD option. But it would be better if the PEs made it to retail(color ways AND full zoom tech). What y'all think?

None of the players usually play in the retail pairs. Its similar but is made custom for them. The sizing on their pairs are an exact fit for them for example. I know its not nike but Steph Curry says he wears more like a 12.75 so they custom make them to fit right.

They also get the cushioning they want as well.
 
People in third world countries don't have any shoes and I don't think cushioning existed in the converse all stars back in the day. I think we've come to rely too much on our shoes.

I do think nike should've put the cushion in the forefoot instead of the heel

??? Huh??
 
Kyrie killing it with PE colorway a. I'm sure they have a plan because there is no way the company doesn't know what they are doing. Kyrie is advertising his shoes with all these hot PE's. But the retail colorways are so plain.

Players are more athletic now and the game is very different. Have you even seen players from the 60s and 70s playing in chucks? White men that can't even dribble with their non dominant hand :lol:
 
Definitely getting those.

Kyrie has taken over the PE crown once held by Bron. These "you can't get these" shoes are getting out of hand now.
 
They kinda have an Aqua 8 vibe to them. I like these a lot. Gonna probably scoop these and the Kobe's
