Well, you definitely owe it to yourself to try the tempos. The upper is way more comfortable than the racer. After a couple of runs they actually break in. I'm able to comfortably run 20 + milers in my normal Nike true size. And the cushioning feels almost indistinguishable from the racer. I mostly agree on the colorways though. Other than the volts and the light crimsons, most have been pretty boring.
I'm just waiting on them to hit the outlets The Volt cw is on my look out list...
I've tried em on. They're legit. Probably a little more comfy than the Racers - but they do have more cushion in the sole (8mm vs 6mm *don't quote me on those numbers). I'll keep an eye out for some of the new CW's since none of the current releases are doing it for me unless I can get for well below retail. I am spying those All white/ Grey CW's as a must purchase. Spoke with RRS for timing on any new CW's to release: They are only getting what looks like 2 more (Mens CW's). One for July (probably 24th-ish which seems when many other styles Summer CW's are dropping) and another release in October (when the Fall CW's are releasing).
If anyone catches wind of those White/Grey/Blacks pls let me know! Luckily the hype on these isn't flyknit level so I doubt we will starve- but none the less!
Here's a post I did a while back comparing the two...
"Here are some comparison specs between the two... (according to RW)
LR3:
Weight: 6.4 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: Heel (27mm), Forefoot (20mm)
LT:
Weight: 6.8 oz (size 9)
Stack Height: Heel (26mm), Forefoot (18mm)
They're very similar to one another. The LR3s slightly weigh less, while the LTs are slightly lower to the ground. However, colorwise, LR3s >>>> LTs."
Nike appears to have a FSR up to wmns size 11 in the hot lava/teals now. If anyone sees a 12 or 11.5 anywhere please lmk
