New Westbrook signature shoe? (Pic)

Those two are cake compared to these. The collar is stiff with the black heel counter and the lace cover has NO STRETCH at all. None. Thought I pulled my shoulder out of socket. Worse than the kd9.

 

Hopefully they drop an elite version with all flyknit front

 

if the upper has no stretch at all then unfortunately it just won't work for me

 

was there a special pre-release drop like the win like 96?

 

Not exactly like that. But they were reserved for some people via the Nike plus app.

 

thank you, sir!

 

On court looks good, wonder how it'll translates to off court wear.

 

Grizz...ever since they did the update/revamp of the app and changed reservations to your profile rather than inbox, I haven't gotten a SINGLE reservation. Granted, I don't stay signed in most of the time...and I have forgotten to check on some days...but you used to be able to see that you were reserved something and you missed the time slot.

Also, does anyone else get the SAME "Welcome to the Nike app" message EVERY single time you log in? It's so annoying.

 

I believe the off court potential for this shoe is...non existent.

 

Why does every b ball shoe have to be low cut or boot cut?

 

I saw a YouTube video of a guy doing a really, really detailed review (over 25 mins), then at the end he was going to show on-foot and he couldn't get his foot in, lol. Man I felt so bad for him. You could hear the disappointment in his voice.

 

Which video? It’s looking like this is going to be a no from me with regards to getting a pair, I couldn’t even get my feet into the lebron 14 without a fight.

 

Kind of disappointing how these are apparently a pain in the butt to put on. Might have to go for they Kyrie's right now. Was also looking at the Way of Wade. Just want a good on court performer with plush cushioning and good traction. How in the world is that so hard to achieve? I might have to end up with the D. Rose 8s...

 

I got it mixed up with another long video so this one is only 8 minutes, but skip to about the 5:00 mark to see him trying them on.

 

Damn, must be bad if it’s worse than KD 9’s. You could stretch or even tear ligaments getting the KD 9 on. Lol

 

I know that's a joke but I actually tore ligaments in my ankle playing in the KD9s because the cut was so low but the ankle was so stiff that as my ankle bent when a guy stuck his foot under me on a jumper, there was 0 give on the ankle area. My ankle bone probably touched the floor. It was so bad I popped a blood-vessel and the scar is still visible (from about a year and a half ago.

 

Dude in the video was barely even trying to put them on

 

Got one on SNKRS easily

 

Didn’t seem to be hard for me to get on....comfort is Insane however

 

Didn't expect these to sell out on SNKRS, wonder if it's real or one of Nike's marketing "Sold Out"s.
My card was charged but still no confirmation. I even went for these before the BHM Kyrie's and that one confirmed first.

 

I imagine that the early reservations probably ate into the stock

 

I hope this releases without a shroud and with a traditional tongue, maybe a playoff version?
