i regret selling both pairs of BHM XX9, to me the best CW of the series, any other colorway didn't appeal me enough (for that price). got photo reels, but i think are too particular to be thought as a regular cw among other drops!

to me XX9 are way underrated, they only deserve better CWs, the shape and the feel to me are the best from years, waaay ahead of XX8!

Never tried the XX8s, but the XX9s are like pillows. The way the padding contours your foot and hits all the right areas gives you added comfort where you need it. Also didn't notice until I got them in last night how the lower part of the upper is stiffer especially toward the heel. I'm guessing this is where the lockdown is going to come from.

Can't wait to actually ball in these and see how this Flight Plate feels. Likely tomorrow or Sunday at the latest, but the next gym run is definitely just for basketball.

I wouldn't say way ahead. The XX8 shrouded are way more comfy and have a lot more range of motion because of the decoupled flight plate. The XX9's are nice, I played in them last night for 3 hours and they felt great. The shrouded XX8's just are way more bouncy but the XX9's have better court feel. They are both great shoes and I'll be rotating 2 XX8's and 1 pair of XX9's for a while.

I love the feel of the sole on the XX8 and the upper on the XX9...Am very excited for the XXX.

i'm not a pro baller, so i dont notice that much the performance difference, nor are so important to me sorry!

Anybody feel like their bottom of their heels are bruised after playing in these or is it just me? Played in these a couple times for the 1st time this week and it's hurting pretty bad.

How much do you weigh and what position do you play?  I've heard of cats saying the same about the XX8.  But these guys were big 220 +  I'm a good 185 and I have no problems.  

It could be a number of things though.  Flight plate is to narrow, your feet are to wide, your gait is off slightly (means you walk or run slightly off center and it puts more pressure on one foot or the other).  Could just be the shoe altogether.  Sorry to hear about that man.

I'm 185 as well. I've been religiously playing in CP3s shoes the past 2 years. Decided to try these. Very comfortable just noticed my heel was hurting after the 2nd time wearing them.

Does anybody know where I can locate a pair of the Team orange cw in a size 12.5?  Haven't been keeping up with this thread but I heard these are performance beasts and I really wanted to give them a shot. The Team orange colorway is the only appealing one and it's hard to come across these in a 12.5. Any help would be appreciated.

Same boat. Same size. Only colorway that appeals to me as well. Asked the same question and got no answer. Not looking to go the secondary route and pay above retail for something to hoop in. Unless they pop up in a random outlet, i'll wait for info on the XXX's...

Dang that sux.. Yeah I can't even pay above retail because there's none available anywhere (not even the bay). I guess this is what happens when you're late to the party. Oh well.

Is a size 12 totally out of the question?

Unfortunately a 12 is too small   Much appreciated though.

 

[lapob]

contemplating if I should cop the riverwalks for 180 Shipped and hold onto them in case i dont like any of the future colorways..

 

[thirdtimearound]

Thats a good price. Id cop.

 

[mcjolo]

I have a sz 13

 

[exceptionl]

They should drop a Russel cw called triple double. I have a feeling we won't see his PEs or a cw since his shoe is going to launch

All Stars for retail (Size 8-11)

I posted a link a few weeks ago when FL had a restock on the Team Orange. They even gave me free 2 day shipping. If I see anything pop up I'll post the link because I actually want another pair to play in for later.

 

[iks mod]

These easters/green pair are sort of growing on me... gotta stay strong.  The black tongue is a good look with them imo

 

[misterj]

returned my gym red pair and copped the year of pair on ndc..haven't seen many on foot shots of these, curious how theyre gonna turn out
