OFFICIAL: Nike Flight One Holiday 2012 (New Holiday 2012 colors on the way)

[ptone]

There are really only 3 major differences:

• The inverted colors on the check by the toe,
• lace color,
• and, obviously, comfort level.

Lesser materials were used but the pods are actually fairly similar.  The newer pair has more of a foamy outer texture while the OG has a stiffer outer (I guess), still very much alike.  The OG's grooves are also more defined.  Nevertheless, those black laces were removed immediately after shooting and were replaced with the proper white laces.

Here's some comparo pics (OG's on left except for last pic):

[coreyatou]

[thapointguy]

nice side by side wow they are in great shape after all these years. thought they would deteriorate by now. I don't mind the minor changes but the comfort level being compromised was a no no.

[reener]

Man, was at work all day. Get home to see that I missed out on the gitd. SMDH

I just got done trying these shoes on and they fit ultra comfortable true to size and everything

! The crazy thing is I buy a lot of hot kicks all the time and most of the time they fit or feel OK for $150 plus dollars but the fit of these Flight Ones remind me that your not just suppose to buy a shoe for style and look. GOOD Job on these Nike all the way through! 

 

[dimez81]

i got a question. does these fit true to size? or do the fir like the jordan cements and run big?

i usually wear a 9.5(preferred) or a 10. Had to get these in a 10 cause they were out of 9.5s, and they are huuuugge. Wish i would of got a 9.

They fit true to size but they're a little wider, and do fit a little similar to the Cements but they have more cushioning in them so that stops them from feeling to big.

 

[Gex the Damaja]

Interesting, back order a little under a month before...
Edit: That brings up another point, if there is a planned restock a month in advanced, wouldn't NDC restock also?  

 

[theprinceofde]

Ordered a size 10.5 of the Orlando's I really wanted the Mints. I hope these don't fit big

The rep wouldn't give me free shipping, anyway I can get my money for the shipping back???
