Thought it's been confirmed that the elites where going to be limited? JAddidas (think that's his name) said that about the LeBrons.

PDFs and KDs, I feel like the brons are going to sit.
Plus, the PDF's are so nice

Can someone please to explain what bleeding has occured through white hyperfuse/flywire?/pics? Home elites are definitely not worth it if wearing a certain sock will wreck the whole shoe..

I'm also hoping for the KB YOTD to release here. Although the more time that passes by, the less likely that it will happen.
Happy postin man.

The Easters are an easy pass for me. I can't really get with the wild patterning that they have. Same reason why I didn't like the Camos from last year.

There will be no break coming from Nike. I love the fact that the shoes are LIMITED cause I feel soooo SPECIAL when I'm walking down the street knowing that the shoes I'm rocking is pair no. 152 out of 2000
Most people don't know this but NIKE has had an Elite line for some time now that ALWAYS sells out. They finally decided to end the "standand model P.S. shoe" for the sig lines and just up the ante with an aggressive urban marketing strategy. They also up'd the price and limited the amount of pairs thus creating SCARCITY which in turn makes PROFIT - simple business ya'll
If you dont like the price hikes your seeing from NIKE then you should hit up your Congressman and have them file a petition to assemble a boycott cause its not gonna get better anytime soon.. END RANT - back to Benny Hill

I will pass with ease and not even think twice. They don't do anything for me and I really don't care if they are limited, quickstrike, or whatever, if I can't see myself wearing them then why buy?
I did however score some Cloaks finally for the sweet price of 200 bucks. Score!

They are a sleeper - VERY nice when you see them in person and try them on.

Limited or not they will sell out. This is a marketing test for Nike. They are trying to create a higher end sneaker market for those with lots of disposable income. Since this and the LeBrons are the "test" or "kick-off" shoes for this new marketing concept expect the quantities manufactured and released to be limited. Nike does not know how well they will sell so I am sure they are hedging their bets on this one and ordered a conservative number of shoes to be produced. With the number of collectors alone who want it just for their collections I predict it will sell out.
***This is just my opinion fellas so take it with a grain of salt.***
Nevertheless, I like both the Kobe & Bron Elites and will purchase a pair of each if they are available without too much hassle.

The home elites are nice but I will pass and the tag of QS/Limited or whatever you want to call them wont effect my decision.

Agreed. That yellow flywire looks like pee stains. No bueno.

too bad the flywire isn't gold, to match the swoosh and Kobe logo
