When are these supposed to come out? I hope the sole is more like the chukka/ htm models

I'm thinking January. I'm certain that they won't have the Lunaracer sole, as that particular tech is now obsolete. It'll probably be another variation of the dual Lunarlon set-up.

Got mine yesterday, they're pretty dope in person. Now I gotta find black laces to replace these crappy ribbon ones
Is $155 a good price for these?

You can get them on RRS for 130+tax if they don't cancel your order.
Otherwise, 155 is under retail which isn't bad at this point. I paid retail in California and that was 174

Does it just happen to me that I feel my pairs are "shrinking"? I can tell my pairs seem tighter now compared to couple months ago. I wonder if heat wave has something to do with it. I put them in my garage which is hot during the day.

When I had the OG trainers I wore my blue glows for my workouts daily & left them in the garage. I swore they shrunk a little & caused all kinds of issues with my feet/legs because I bought them snug/tts. I ended up returning them because of the issues they started causing with my leg/feet so I thought I was imagining it. I had a DS pair that I tried on too & they didn't feel as tight seemingly but they already were snug starting out so I just wasn't sure.
Funny you now think this. I wondered if it was a combination of me leaving them in the garage & working out/running in them every day.
I just recently started running in my wolf greys so we'll see what happens with those, they are in my garage/car now & I don't use them DAILY but pretty frequently throughout the week

So, maybe some of you guys can help me out here...
I'm a novice runner. I just started in April, really - I'd done CrossFit for a while, and Warrior Dash-type events, but never any prolonged/regular running. I've been working up slowly (I'm 38, cut me some slack) to about 4-mile runs. Using the Nike+ app, I see the aggregate total of my runs, so with the runs before the app, I estimate about 75 miles so far on my Flyknits (not counting walking around before/after runs). What is the average life span of a pair of running shoes? And do these last more or less time than average? Most of my running is on pavement, or the hard dirt just off the shoulder of the road, if that matters.
Thanks for any help.

Keep us updated. I don't think it's because of being used for running/walking. It should stretch out more if that's the case. This happens with my turq pair on toes area. My pink flash's fit still "OK". I might have to start keeping them in cooler place.

The outsole is soft. If you're gonna use it extensively for running on that hard surface, I don't think it'll last long. I don't know for how long.

These wont last as long as some other running shoes bc of the soles. I generally retire my "work" shoes after 5 to 6 months but thats when I'm training for 10-milers and half marathons (Running 3 times a week including a longer run on the weekend. Exactly how long depends on factors like weight and running style and miles on the shoes. Word of advice, wearing them only for running will prolong their life and keep you from breaking them down faster. Good luck with your running.

Thank you. I'm generally not that big (5'7", 170ish). I don't know enough to know what my running style is. The "walking" I was referring to was the general pacing around and trying not to die that follows the run, but I don't wear them to the store or out anywhere (I have a separate pair of Blue Glows for that). Do other Nike runners like Lunarglides tend to last longer?

Nice, but not feeling those black laces. I think u should of kept the original laces. But I have to agree the mc's are very comfortable.

Nice swap! They look much better than the ribbons. However, I still think the stock laces from the LGs and FRs are the best option for lace replacement.
