    I have an XI ID with the XDR outsole. It's a tougher, stiffer material than the rest of my XIs. I don't have a preference, but for lifestyle or outdoor purposes, its nice to have that extra bit of durability.

    Nice find. Also some price breaks on the AD Mids, at $112.99.

    I've got my own pair of curials too :nthat: Nice socks though, where'd you find those? Once the white and black pairs go dirt cheap I'll pick them up too. The NXT is a ccol sneaker. Still have yet to try the new mids...

    Saw plenty of red NXTs on the hash wall in Howell, MI. They were however priced higher than both the white and black pairs that were both in the aisles. Go figure.

    I could see that. Never had that happen with my XIs but I do remember Derozan losing one of his during the Olympics. Then again, I dont use them nearly that hard.

    Nice find. Pistons fan here, we burned ourselves when we traded him. I'm coincidentally rocking my XI Achilles, which was KCP's go-to 2 seasons ago. Looks like he's tying his laces? I must be weird in that I keep my NXT's pretty loose....they're pretty snug as is.

    This. Had much more to say but I deleted it. No need for my old fogey talk :lol:

    Hope so! I've been so stuck on my Kobe XIs and NXTs that I completely missed this sneaker. I'll be on the lookout!

    The Official Jordan XXXI Thread

    What happened to the XXXI's? The black/gold was looking real nice, and I've never owned a pair of Jordans. :lol: Has Nike permanently gotten rid of them from the site, and will they be showing up at the outlets? :smokin

    Official Kobae XI thread

    I switch between all 3 of the midsoles that came with the XI's... full Lunars, Zoom heel and full Zoom. They're all pretty cool but I think I like the stock configuration the best. Full Zoom is fun but bounces back slower in the forefoot while cradling it less. Full Lunars seem a little...

    A little off topic but, anyone in East LA area? Just got a tip on some XI Avars on the Hash wall for $99 + 20%. Looking for an oop on a size 11.5. Help me out and keep the 20% for yourself. Got PayPal ready to go!

    Black and white looking sharp. Will these be the same "felt" material as the other colorways?

    I've only had my NXTs for about a week but I find I like them pretty loose. The bootie and the general lockdown is there for the most part even with the laces loosened to about an inch out of the lock thingie. Tucking the lace in the back bungie is kind of clumsy to me. Sometimes they pop...

    Your avy is kinda small. Ming sharing your lacing tips with us? Been rocking my curial NXTs for about a week now. Mine are usually loose enough that I don't have to tuck in my lace ends. Would love to hear your technique.
