just got my free tempos -- so if you look at the writing on the medial heel... it's the print that they were using to go with the olympics. so my guess for what's going on here is that instead of going the alphafly route and re-painting/branding the soles (or at least that's what I'm guessing...

Yep, though it took them almost 2 hours to respond to me! Good thing "first come first serve" wasn't a indication of limited supply lol Nice to hit on something after years of missing out on SNKRS/NikeLab drops/early access for things I actually wanted... And I'd never complain about a free...

I hope you don't mind me asking, but what about these in particular took 3 months? And I'm being totally serious here -- as an outsider I really enjoy learning what goes on behind the scenes from a supply chain/manufacturing standpoint.

Got that email for both the next% and alphafly. next%s shipped yesterday and alphas just shipped.

fwiw, this colorway was my 5th pair and this was the first time I didn't have a bag either...

what foam are they using in the zoom tempo flyknit?

good catch. that is interesting. I didn't even notice that one because...well... let's just say that's not something I'd be interested in wearing :lol: however, I still think they're charging over retail: both woman's singlets are on ndc for $80 and the women's version on the bowerman website...

interesting that they would charge $10 over retail for those on their website. nike actually has the women's otc and 2020 elite kit design (though can't tell if the blue is the same shade) aeroswift singlets for sale on ndc. couple this with the fact that the product shots for the white oregon...

The OTC design is way better, imo. Sadly there was only LG and XL left by the time I saw it on the website the other day.

Now up on RW MIDSOL Nike React foam is lightweight, springy, and durable. OUTSOLE Rubber outsole gives you traction and smooth ride between trails and the road. UPPER Durable Mesh throughout the upper increases airflow and helps drain water, so you can stay cool and dry. Faux Gaiter Piece...

If memory serves I think I remember Cook saying something about how they view it as a tradeoff between energy return and fatigue with respect to offset. Less offset is good for more efficient energy return (hence why track spikes don't have a huge drop), but they don't think you need it for a...

Haven't received mine yet, but that sounds like about what I was expecting. I feel like the pictures are misleading with the shoe -- stack looks pretty high but the forefoot stack is only 2mm more than the 36, which is 10mm less than the infinity, 3mm less than the epic 2, and even 2mm less than...

Wasn’t expecting a random ndc restock on the next% this morning. Noticed it at 6:30 a.m., so who knows what time it went live.

kuroko no basket. Legit changed my opinion of the sports genre. Prior to watching it I thought the genre just wasn't for me because I had never been able to make it through and entire series. But this one totally won me over.

Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru. Not my favorite sports anime, but I enjoyed it
