So we now know why you could use that 15% off code hope everyone gets their pairs I plan on trying to stock locate as soon as I can hope they have them if not oh well on to the summer releases. Never really wanted a sig shoe besides Jordans after May but I probably won't be able to resist the most likely hot colorways and the 9 probably won't come out until mid December again.

Love to ball in my 8s but as I've said feel like the cushioning in the ASG is starting to lack quickly

i'm interested in the nike+ tech but still think its too early,IMO, to get in a pair. maybe when the tech has been worked on and prices get a little bit cheaper/better/more selection. question for you, are the sensors attached to the insole?

Went to the mall near my school for the first time since last year. Decided to check out FootLocker. Was surprised they still had most of the Kobe colorways.
I wanted to cop one pair, but couldn't decide between the blue lights and the grey volts. What was weird was the blue lights were $140, while the grey volts were $150. I asked them why the prices were different, and they said the grey volts were more limited. Weird.
After much thought, I decided to ask the employees which pair should I buy. They all pointed to the grey volt pair. Later, I asked them which pair would be easier to wear around more often, and they all said the blue pair. Interesting.
A few hours later, I ended up copping the blue lights after consulting with some friends and myself.
i personally dont like grey based shoes so good choice

sensor is put into a hole that is cut out under insole
honestly, unless u can dunk and ur developing ur game in HS or middle school, the tech is kind of pointless especially to us asians LOL.
its just a fun gimmick maybe to play around once or twice. after that your let eh

Not trying to be a douche, but seeing the Sulfurs at the bottom, I don't give this ranking much validity. To each his own though...:\

There are pressure sensors in the sole and then you insert a removable sensor in each shoe that collects the data. At roughly $80 for the technology on the first purchase its expensive but then it's interchangeable between plus shoes so I can put the removable sensors into my hyperdunks which also have the pressure sensors in the soles. I honestly got them for vert measuring and maybe more usefully to me as a person that can dunk. I do find that it measures effort well in pick up games. Showing how many times I jump and whether I'm fully jumping or half assing it for rebounds and showing active verse steady motion shows me if I'm taking plays off and not hustling down the court.
It's definitely still a novelty mainly but it is cool making a showcase video where it overlays your stats onto your dunk and sending it to friends that are doubters. I could see Nike making big improvements on it if they continue developing the technology. The 2.0 version of the basketball app itself is much cleaner already.

pyhtons imo are the worst ones of the bunch. Im missing the yots red suedes,supernaturals, and pythons for a reason.
as an old school reebok fan, I'd take the kamikazes over the pythons.
