are people wearing these as casual sneakers or to ball in? i have two pairs of 34s (black cats and eclipse). the black cats are my dedicated court sneakers and just amazing all around. the arch is slightly too high, but trimming the insole solved that. haven't worn the eclipse pair yet, but...

thanks! both the outsole and midsole are wolf grey.

tried out a casual off the court type design. something along the line of the nike lifestyle variety. color scheme on these might be low key for some, but this is exactly what i was aiming for. so glad they brought back the team red upper....

that's exactly what happened to mine. and only on the right front zoom bag too. don't know how many people had popped zoom bags on the right front, but makes me wonder if there was a specific issue with the design or air bag for the right side shoe only. either way i played in my replacements...

:{ that blows. there has to be a reason they determined it wasn't a manufacturing flaw. perhaps they thought the shoes were tampered with? you should call them and request a written explanation. as for jordans being marketing scam...ehhh...the retros maybe..but these xx8 se i'm not so...

at least nike is doing the right thing by those of us who returned defective pairs. they sent me this for the pair i returned with a popped zoom bag... ....only problem is i can't get another pair of xx8 se on nike.com. :rolleyes such a shame how delicate this model turned out to...

thanks man. the nikeid rendering doesn't do this shoe justice imo. i was skeptical until i got them in hand. really nice model and they feel great on feet. i'll probably pull the trigger on another pair. something with the team red upper. :smokin

from what i've seen the xx9 sole is different from the xx8 model. with the xx9 the airbag in the forefoot is more recessed and doesn't poke out as much as the xx8 does. hopefully this means the xx9 will be less likely to have the popping issue since not as much force will be directly on the...

i don't think these have any kind of water repellent material or treatment. i poured a cup of water over the knit material and it soaked it right up like a shamwow :lol the toe and heel do have that tape like material that is wear and weather resistant though. fortunately i have the black...

i normally wear a size 13 in nike basketball shoes and runners. for these i would have gone a full size down to a 12 for a more naturally snug fit. this shoe is very roomy and without the additional insole my feet slide around in the 13 i got.

for those of you who ordered you fsb chukkas tts, but they're too big.... buy a pair of generic $2 insoles and put them under the nike insoles. you'll have two insoles in the shoe which takes up the extra space to make them fit just right. tried this with my fsb chukkas and it works like a...

my two pairs came in. really disappointed with the midsole paint quality. looks like it was painted on very lightly with a thick paint brush. looks especially bad on the back near the heel. returned the same day and not sure i'm going to reorder. quality control could be why there were...

nikeid says my orders started on the 6th and the 8th. i was stalking nikeid when they first came up, but they didn't show available to design. as soon as they came up i threw a few together. glad i didn't wait and got them in before they started acting up again. here's what i ordered...

solid color foams >>>> graphic pattern foams. with only a few exceptions like the galaxy, oregon, and maybe the camo foams with the gum sole. the stealths are still the only pair of foams i own, but i'm eyeing the royals waiting for a good deal. the matte finish really makes the shoe for...

that's what i did last year with the lebron x. made them a month in advance thinking if i didn't get the stealths the lebron's were my consolation. was able to get the stealths and the bron's came right about the same time. and i've kept my stealths ds to this day. :hat

i'm also confused why people are calling these stealths when they're clearly not. the most accurate description would be anthracites like the 2007 release. the smoked soles and silver accents on the stealths are different compared to the black soles and all black accents on these. i like the...

i would not get hopes up for these being released in gr numbers. probably gonna be the same as last year's stealth release. seems nike has a track record of doing limited releases for kicks that would do big numbers as a gr. if i get a pair of these anthracites i'll keep my stealths on ice...

my '12 stealths are still ds. not convinced i wan't these anthracites since the silver accents on the stealths appeal to me more than the all black upper on these. if/when the soles on my stealths eventually yellow i'll seaglow them or dye them black or a darker grey. if i didn't have...

none for sale, but a good place to look for spotting fake foams is the carbon fiber on the bottom looking real suspect or not properly glued to the bottom, look at the seams around the toebox, the foamposite material doesn't have the right indentation around the shoe. if you can get pics of the...
