Nike HYP Chase (ASG, Fragment Design Trio Released 2/12/2015)

Just received my pair yesterday. Haven't played in them, but my first impression is that they feel quite awful. I have wide-ish feet and wish I had gone up 1/2 a size (or in my case a full size, as they don't make size 12.5), and the cushioning is pretty much non-existent. For $120, I wish they had at least put zoom in the forefoot. As another person commented, the lacing towards the toebox pinched my foot near my big toe as I flexed. Given all of this, I probably won't even give them a shot on the court and will send them back or sell them. Gonna give the Curry One's a go.
 
Mine feel great... with the stick insole and all gave them a spin today for some training. Super impressed, lock down is perfect.
 
Any word if these are ASG still available? Slept on these locally and now regretting it.

AS colorway is fire in person. May scoop a pair. Hope they have some more Harden PE's for us.
 
just got the asg delivered last night.  not a fan.  they don't seem stable (compared to the kobe 6s).  i feel like i would be very prone to an ankle sprain.  secondly, they don't feel as good as the zoom run the ones.  those i regret returning.  

just my 2 cents.

these will be returned back to niketown. 
 
Definitely disappointed in the comfort on these..feels like i'm unstable as well..

They do look very clean in person tho..
 
I just picked these up at footlocker today. They look great in person, but they feel stiff as hell. Almost non-existent cushioning compared to Kobe 9s. I'll probably just use them for weight lifting, since I don't play ball on my toes like Harden.

The FTL took the bday coupon for them, so I couldn't pass them up at $95 (and no tax since it got under $110 for NYC).

Small update: After messing around with the roshe and Kobe 9 insoles, I want to bet that Harden plays with a different insole in there. There should be no reason why he uses the original one, which is made out of stone.

My green ones look more like brown - can't really tell it is supposed to be an olive green shoe.  Disappointed that the colors are off.

I'm surprised managers let you rock with the bday coupon because I got curved at one location with the excuse being "These joints exclusive Yo.." :stoneface:

They really believe people gonna buy these retail price knowing that most are aiming for the remastered Jordan's the next few months.

Haha, I was surprised too. I just asked if they can try to see if this coupon worked, and the cashier just entered the code and it worked. It might be because it was a Midtown location and they wanted to keep the line moving.

patience saves pockets.  I didn't even think FNL got these initially last weekend on the RD ?    Now they pop up on their website.  I probably could of gotten them for around $85 with all the coupon codes, rewards, etc.    Ended up paying $120 at HOH last weekend.   damn you FNL !!  lol
 
Want to give this shoe a shot but my dislike for the asymmetrical lacing, assorted tongue colors and the lack of cushioning(even though insole swap will fix that) I will regret the purchase. One more pair for others.

I feel you.  Tbh -- the coupon that Grizz posted made me bite... I was really on the fence.  The fact that I have a pretty healthy supply of lunar inserts and some bron xi ones was sort of a big factor.

Like some others, may just ended up kicking around in these or using them in the gym but not on court
