These are going to be Nike's best sig this upcoming basketball season. Keeping my fingers crossed they stay under the radar.
I agree they will probably be the best Nike sig shoe but keep in mind we still haven't seen the Kobe XI's yet. But as far as them staying under the radar...I seriously doubt that because of the price point alone. I honestly expecting these to sell better than the ones because more people are on Kyrie's now also. Everbody keep in mind too @baltsneakershow said there will also be a Kyrie 2 Elite this year! For those who may have forgotten.
I'm in for the Kyrie 2. But man unless you're playing on a pristine court, that traction pattern looks like you're going to be on skates :x
The first color that drops on December 15, almost sounds like another Dream colorway for the 2's when you read the description Nike Kyrie 2 Multi-Color/Black-Sail 819583-901 Release Date: 12/15/15 Price: $125
Kinda feeling these... the 1s looked too much like they were for lil kids, with the shark teeth and spikes on the back. These also look like kids shoes but i like the KD4 strap... the right CW may get me. I agree the traction looks suspect
Love me a well placed strap. Will be my first Kyries just not that CW. I can imagine some pretty dope ID options for these as well. Can't go wrong with black and gold.
I think they will stick. The grooves are pretty wide so dust will not get clogged easily. The durability might be an issue though. Also the edges of the outsole on the forefoot is too rounded, might be prone to rollovers. I suppose that's wear the strap comes into play.
Traction on the 1 gave me some problems, I think from clogging up w/ dust quickly. Definitely most curious about traction on these 2s. Fit/lockdown looks like it should be solid. And what someone mentioned above, hoping that zoom is improved a bit.
