UPDATE (09/16/11) Courtesy of CounterKicks: - Weighs in at 8.7 oz (Size 10) - $100 MSRP - All have Reflective Silver Swooshes - " " Pure Platinum Midsoles (?)
^in other words, Nike adds a few flashy touches but increases the shoe by $10. All a gimmick in my opinion for an unfair rise in price
Good look on the update, ILLustRAYt. Here's a link to the CounterKicks post if you want all the official tech specs, design features, and colorways for the Free Run 3: http://counterkicks.com/2011/09/16/nike-free-run-3/
Sorry if I'm wrong. I thought these were the Free Run+ 3s. http://www.freerun3.com/i...run_3_men_gray_white.jpg Notice the pair with the volt strapy thing has a 5.0 sole (says 5.0 on the 2nd part of the sole from the left).
Very well could be the walking version. Whatever they are, I would only cop the black/grey pair. I don't want volt on a blue pair of shoes.
There is NO DOUBT I'd prefer these over the FR3s in the original post. However, the info provided by zzazin is always ON POINT. I'm pretty sure those are fakes.
A search for "Nike Free Run 3" in Google Images brings up a ton of colorways for the ones I posted. Could be fake, I just find the sole on the original pair posted a little sketchy for the Free Run+ 3. I thought the 5.0 sole was separate from the Free Run line. 3.0 Line, 5.0 Line, 7.0 Line, and Free Run Line, all separate models, correct?
That's right. I believe the FR sole is considered a 4.0. That's Nike for you... CounterKicks has even provided the official tech spec of the FR3...
Guess I'm just in denial that they would take such a great line in this direction. Very disappointed. Looks like I'll stock up on FR2s and maybe cop the black FR3.
So this is the original upper (Zoom Speed Lite ST+ 3) from which those "FR3s"were derived from... Interesting. http://www.kicks-crew.com/products_details.php?pid=1716 I definitely prefer this upper than the real deal though...
The 2s are killing these I guess ill buy a couple more pairs of the 2s since I will be not getting the 3s
2s are definitely a lot better lookin than these if those mango samples drop, they will be copped quickly..
