I haven't noticed any difference between the regular soles and translucent ones, seem the same to me on court in terms of traction. Traction is the weakness of the XI on court in my opinion.

Funny because the court I played on was very dusty last wk and my broken in KP had way more traction than my new Kobe 9 Perspective. I didn't bring my XX8s or I would've had a chance to compare all three.

The grip on my kobe 9s is amazing. I don't get how the moderate traction on the 11s can get better with time. Even on dusty courts.

i would not know, but i played two games in the Perspective first and then switched to the KP for the rest of the night and the KP worked better. On fresh wipes the kobe 9 does grip better, but the lebron xi was more consistent and require less wipe.

Maybe the traction on the XIs need to "break in"?

I have agree with you there. I actually play on a really clean court and even then my brons were never squeaky. I have to literally kick the ground to get a peep. My kobe's on the other hand, I gotta walk around like a ninja so they DON'T squeak.

Saw the Elites at Shady Palace. They do look nicer than first pics made them out to be. I would def cop on the deep deep deep discount.

The elites aren't going to hit discounts. They're the greatest lebron ever made b. I'd gladly pay twice retail for a pair and not eem think twice about it
