I'm serious bruh. I think it's only the + version though. Would be $250 ..
 
Hard to believe that iDs would be the + version. That's gonna cost close to $300 after tax. Bad move by Nike if it is.

Same here..USA colorway and the Black/Blue GR Nike+ colorway
 
Man if the ID is just + I'll gladly pass but I have a feeling they will eventually have the regular version too. Can't wait to get the wht/green this weekend and the regular USA on the 14th

  Man......................Why'd they have to be the + though??? 

Here's my review.  As a disclaimer, I can be pretty tough on my sneaker reviews/Also comparisons are related to the hyperdunk 2012

I Played 4-5 games tonight/All Volt/gorge green is the colorway I have

Cushioning:  Out the box the cushioning is crazy.  I've never had a Lunar pair of shoes, so adjusting to a different cushioning setup/feel may take some getting used to.  Its a much softer "cushiony" type sneaker.  If I recall, I read somewhere before that there was concern of the lunar foam "bottoming out".  I could potentially see this happening but honestly I don't know just yet.  Its a very smooth ride, no doubt about it.  Its Running cutting jumping is just "cushiony".  Only way I can put it right now.  I rate it  8.5/10.  Reason I dont give it a 10/10 is I like the responsiveness of zoom air and I'm accustomed to it.  The more I play in these, the more I'll become accustomed to that type of cushioning and the rating may change. 

Support:  Thank you for listening.  I thought the 2011 were terrible for ankle support.  I rolled my ankle too many times in those.  These are something special.  Its a very lockdown secure feel.  From the bottom of the heel all the way to the top of my ankle I was locked in.  I truly believe this type of flywire helps the medial sides as well.  I was very impressed and very happy with that.  This area is probably the highest priority for me.  And the 2012 didnt disappoint! 10/10

Fit:  Here is where I'm not so sure.  It fits a bit smaller than the 2011......I think.  Reason I say this, I typically wear 2 (double) elite socks when I play.  I couldnt fit 2 in this sneaker comfortably.  Here's where the issue may lie.  I wore the 2-layer elites (brand new pair) and they are a tad bulkier than the originals.  So I'm thinking this may be part of the problem.  That being said I've worn regular elites under my 2 layers before and they fit fine in my 2011.  Maybe because I havent broken the sneaker in just yet.  My big toes are a bit sore and I attribute that to wearing only one pair of socks.  They also seem to be a bit roomier in the toe area than the 2011.  Possibly a bit wider.  8.5/10

Style:  Love the big swoosh.  Had a bunch of people looking, asking, commenting, etc on the kicks.  Def a head turner.  Got a bit dirty but cleaned very well 10/10
Grip:  No complaints here.  Thought they were very solid.

Overall this is a huge improvement in the areas I personally wanted a change in especially the ankle support.  If your a hooper, I'd recommend investing in a pair.  Biggest "issue" could be adjusting to the lunar cushioning and not being able to rock 2 socks at the time, Otherswise my rating for the sneaker is A+ 9/10

If you guys have any other questions let me know.

thanks for the review...I think I'm gonna pull the trigger on the +'s when they release
 
I'm clueless.

So when they say generic model, do they mean there isn't space inside the shoe for the + setup just in case you decide to get it separately later on?
 
i would like to know the options they are going to have for the ID's........... translucent soles maybe???
 
There should be a warranty on these kicks

. How much weight can they hold without something breaking.

HA. A majority of Americans would be getting their money back if that were the case, so no...No warranty.
