Fit is TTS for me, after going half size down on 9 and 10. You FEEL the bounce. However, speaking for pure impact protection, the forefoot feels closer to the ground and less cushioned, probably because the zoom bag is usually already compressed. The heel is as good as previous models, which is...

Played at a super dusty gym today, have to say the traction wasn’t as bullet proof as my Kobe 1 Protros. Hopefully it gets better with break in.

The color blocking/design makes me wonder if they’ll eventually come out with a low

Nope. The insole swap makes the shoe pretty snug already.

I might go with TTS with insole swap to thicker sofsoles for a slightly more snug fit. Fit makes or breaks this shoe to me.

Did you guys go TTS or down half a size for ball? TTS - a tad too long and had too much room in the shoe so it felt extra bulky like I was dragging the shoe around on the court. Down half a size - fit was almost perfect, like the shoe was an extension of my feet (didn’t even feel bulky at...

Checked Valley Fair in SJ and they only had Big boys version Interesting that React isn’t caged. I guess it’s ok for them since they don’t exert as much force

Yep. I picked anthracite. To me, it's closest to the dark blue on the actual PEs.

Agreed. I’d much rather ball in the IDs. Finals are simply a collectible for me.

Comparison to the Finals MVP release: - Same shade of blue except the black underlay. IDs’ inner side is darker than rest of the shoe, like on the Nike website. - Laces are different and shorter (Finals pair looks like a rope) - KD emblem on tongue is sewn. Finals pair is glossy. - Gold swoosh...

Yep. About 2 weeks.

Received my IDs today. Knowing the there wouldn’t be gold underlay in the Flyknit, I’m quite happy with them. They look dope in person :)

I would go with Metallic Gold. University Gold looks to be a non-reflective yellow.

If you look closely the finals pair has gold weaved into the blue knit as well..

Are you using metallic gold or university gold on the midsole?
