A camera with the lens cap still on would make the 3ds look good lol

Got my second of 4 EM iD's today... And sadly, I continue to be underwhelmed. Specifically with the white underlay around the lace eyelets. It's under the mesh but stands out like a sore thumb... IMO.
Rendering (no white underlay).
Actual
Here's to hoping the ext two are closer. But I am not holding my breath...

So I assume even the Black EMs will have that white underlay.

So far, 2 for 2 for me... I have another (purple) coming in tomorrow.

Love em. This was the exact pair I was going to order off the ASG ID's and when I went to pull the trigger they had removed the ASG ID's altogether. Was pissed.

Nice. Then there's hope... The only EM 11 iD's that I have so far without the white lace eyelet underlay, are my Mamba Day's

Hmm that white underlay below the mesh is a bit distracting huh

i agree that the rendering crushes the actual pair...since we have identical pairs I can at least tell you that they perform really well on the basketball court...which is what I'll be using them for so I can look past the white underlay....if I were to rock em casually, it'd be another story...

Definitely the way to go with the 11s if you want a Grinch. Same could probably be said if someone wanted to replicate the Fundamentals.

Far too much complaining going on on the board. Alot of pairs that have been stated as being bad or otherwise look great to me. I hear where your coming from by the renderings not matching up but honestly the strong majority are sick IMO and these China 6's are NASTY!

I don't like the 11 EMs (sans the Mamba Day - I do like them), but I have to say, the 11 EMs are VERY suitable for replicating classic Kobe colorways. The only problem will be that people might be pi$$ed when they put out $200 for an 11 EM that replicates a classic colorway, then a year or two from now, Nike retros the actual classic (remastered of course), and it's about the same price as the 11 EM they just tried to make a poor man's version of.

Got mine in today and I'm more than satisfied. Even better than I thought they would turn out. Replicated my daughters Kobe 8 Dynamic Pinks so we can be matchy-matchy.

These would be perfect if not for the white underwear showing through. Nike could have at least used black. Wtf is wrong with Nike sometimes.

These are close to the rendering, but the actual has a fade to white on top? I didn't expect that.
