I wonder if we're going to get the closest ever to true flyknit on a basketball shoe.

Now that looks a lot different than the renderings.
Def going in on these.
That white front will be a double up. I can't believe KD isn't hooping in these yet.

Its been discussed for a while in the Kobe threads. I think the TPU backing is necesarry since if it was a true flyknit, I would think it would rip easily with all the violent cutting that happens in basketball.
come on, they arnt slippers
. I dont think Nike will be making basketball shoes that would end up just slipping off of your feet when tied the right way.

If theyre anything like the hyperrev 2015 in the heel then they wont be slippin off. Those had a nice gel padding that cupped the heel n held it in the shoe
What .. no especially if ur hoopin in em. Unless theyre just that big on u sizing down will do nothing but cram ur toes and end up hurting

This isn't true Nike is just lazy, we have had prime knit on adidas basketball shoes and them tearing hasn't been a issue, it Can be done, just don't seem to be a priority for Nike at all

Ima cop a pair ..ID most likely..................But...ima pause and wait for all the reviews first this time around..and not repeat the same mistake i made with the KD8s. Out of all the KDs ..the 4s and the 8s felt the worse to hoop in. Casual..they were fine thou
