Inspirations seem like a harder cop but was easy anyways.Thought I was gonna pass on the Perspectives, but they're starting to grow on me like the Blue Glow 8s did last year.
Hmmmm...

You're right. @mattSOS, the sneaker stats guy on twitter, said that 85% of sneakers purchased are not used for their designed purpose. He said these are mostly "fashion shoes". Not sure how he gets that number though.

Perspectives will be much easier to compared to the previous pairs. Almost every mall around me has them. Footlocker seems to be flooded with these. I know a few places that are getting over 40 pairs that only had 12-18 of the Inspirations.

Strange tho I figure more peeps would want the black and yellow since it's close to the Lakers CW and will match with more things. The perspectives look like a more limited pair IMO. The first 9 to sit for awhile I'm thinking.

Can't bring myself to get excited about the lows... I have so many 8s and that shoe is amazing.
The 9 lows would have to release a spectacular colorway in order for Nike to get my $$$.

I personally wasn't surprised at all that there is fuse/tpu underlay and not exclusively flyknit on the IX. The Kobe 8 was marketed as having an engineered mesh upper but turned out to be supported with fuse underlay. Nike gave us the first basketball shoe with flyknit so they didn't lie about that aspect but they had to make it work. Raw flyknit would have resulted in lack of support and stability for basketball moves.

Interesting how Nike has decided to produce the IX's that have dropped so far. Literally went from QS to limited to a bit less limited to limited GR to GR 
But I'm glad Perspectives are more widely available for those who want to experience the IX Elite that haven't had the chance to yet(assuming that $225 price tag isn't an issue).

that is a bad statement, considering the white/volt NRG and the black NRG pair is way more limited but majority of the people would take a pair of MP's over them. Hell I'd still take my Devotion/Maestro/ASG IX's over them. And I live in NYC so i had a chance to get those NRG's but i didn't because I don't like them regardless of how limited they are.
Not sure if trolling or just a ******ed comment. he was doing a commercial/photoshoot and he had to lace the ASG up. Look for another flyknit commercial with Richard Sherman.
I get what you mean by the NRG being too basic as far as CW, but its funny because the Red Octobers are even more of a basic cw, its got ONE color lol.

I still haven't and probably won't until Saturday, but hopefully the Perspectives are in stock and I can see them tomorrow while I'm out
