Both pairs I have cuffed and tucked the cuff into the shoe, so only the inside of the jean has been touching the collar...it's not a huge deal, but if I can minimize it I would prefer it. Maybe try another pair or 2 of jeans though...you never know.

Maybe a directory of owners or something, not that I know what we'd do with it, but hey...something is better than nothing. The map of the US and the number of pairs per state is cool, but maybe a little more. Owner profiles or collection pix...something. Oh well...just happy these damn shoes got made in the first place, beggers can't be choosers!

This question was answered a while back I believe. One of the NT'ers emailed Nike customer service asking the same thing and they said that the battery ISN'T replaceable. But at 3,000 hrs approx of battery time...should be good for the life of the shoe, considering most people don't keep them lit all the time. I have worn them out 4 times and only really turned them on while out. Battery only died once while I wore them to work, and that was from 6am till noon. Not a bad run straight through. Aside from that, when they are in my display case they aren't turned on at all...unless I get the urge to pop on the power and stare lol.

My thoughts exactly!! While I appreciate that Cudi wore them on Conan and they were the subject of the first half of the interview, all us "regular" people, for the most part have worn them as well. You owe it to yourself to do it if you own a pair. I posted a story of a night out with them on the last page or 2, and I'm hoping to wear them out again. And if Christmas comes around and some pairs are left on eBay for some somewhat "respectable" prices...might just cop #2 and REALLY wear my original pair!
