Highs look ok, maybe a little better than the em lows, like always, will wait for more pics and angles to judge properly

These could be really comfortable, but not worth the initial price tag. I hated how the heel bottomed out on other pairs of lunar, so maybe I will give these a try at the right discount and colorway.
The lows, that is. Can't mess with the highs posted lol.

Glad to see they used Flyknit again, was a bit disappointed when initial pictures leaked of the lows and they didn't use Flyknit, hopes or a Elite low with this as well.

Highs look like a potential performance upgrade on the IX Elites, especially if there's zoom instead of just lunarlon..

X high looks good to me. flyknit sewn into soft megafuse instead of that hard hyperfuse is going to be really comfy. might not cop that purple colorway, but i'll definitely be getting at least one pair of these. hopefully, they let us ID them this time.

Doesn't look too bad. The back of the sole has a Qasa/Tubular-esque shape.
Is the whole midsole/sole encapsulated in clear rubber?

If Nike does a masterpiece type flyknit on this model then expect everyone to do a 180 lol

I'm not gonna pre judge the high. I will say however I'm glad I went in on the 9. Those look bulky and the sole looks extra big in that pic.

I like the highs. After seeing the lows, almost anything is an improvement.

An improvement from the low, but I can't see getting into more highs just because its the next model number. I picked up 3 pairs of high 9s, and will probably go after the BHMs, but I'm not in any rush to get more. I'll wait to see the flyknit lows if they make them.

zoom heel, lunar in the forefoot? Is that what we are potentially looking at here?

that sounds very familiar.This is one of the worst looking shoes I've ever seen
There's no person on earth that could wear those and make them actually look good. It's literally a space boot.

Yeah it seems like 180 zoom in the heel and lunarlon forefoot

Hopefully this means we get flyknit lows.

I remember when kobe wore these at practice I thought they looked terrible. So let's keep an open mind.

Yep, the IVs had a similar setup. The Xs' cushioning should hopefully be like an upgrade of that. The lunarlon should certainly last longer.

the highs look better but that midsole looks clunky. out of the two, I'd take the highs. hope to see some great CWs and next year I sure expect a more creative WTK than the simple one for the 9s

I like them. They kind of look like a fake pair of 9s though. Very interested in the final product though. I love the high 9.
