OFFICIAL: NIKE KD VI - "WTKD" 6/14

[blackmondays]

Is the elite going to have grade school

 

[tigo0240]

IMO even if the soles turned completely piss yellow on my Florals, it would still pretty much go with the theme of the shoe

Just wear and enjoy, duders.

Is the elite going to have grade school

Yes, the CW is the same except it's regular VI materials.

 

[thehybridtheory]

I had someone ask me where I got my Easters from. I shouldn't have told them since they're sold out.

 

[alp]

Yeah sole protectors are a little obsessive imo

 

[dcamps]

Just saw the elites in person. Pretty clean. The layer under the mesh is what makes them look "soggy". Dope shoe not worth 200$ IMO

 

[mazaradii]

Lol guys sneakers get yellow and dirty its gonna happen

 

[laokratwr]

Sole protectors... wow... Im too old for that @##@

 

[goldenboyboxing]

I guess sole protectors would go with the theme of the shoe anyway. Like grandmas couch type stuff.

You can start a thread or just post it here, doubt anybody would mind.

I certainly wouldn't!

For those that are wondering, looks like samcolt12 got his elites early. Great review and I'm definitely making plans to cop via my Nike hookup so the price point doesn't hurt me too much. lol

Hope it adds lunarlon or some kind of new tech for kd to increase $20 - same stuff past 2 years but excited to see images

I hope not. Lunarlon is way inferior to zoom for cushioning. Full length zoom unit, flywire, and maybe some flyknit? I would like to see that on the kd 7.

idk about flynit would probably be more than $150 with flynit, maybe mesh like Kobe's?

Nah, Nike is foolin people with how much "technology" costs in shoes. Foams are the only one that made sense for at the time they released.

There was no flyknit on the wear test KD 7 that Has been floating around. That's not to say that there won't be, but at $150 it doesn't leave much to the imagination in terms of tech. EM/hyperfuse will be a kd mainstay for a while to come. The pricepoint of each nike basketball signature also correlates to specific materials. Don't look for too much blending with the next 2 sig models (lbj12, kd7).

 

[byukid]

Fair enough I just don't want them to go the lunarlon route. That stuff is hell on my ankles and knees with how much give it has.

While that may be true, I think the lowest price I've seen on a flynit is around $150 and Nike is still experimenting with flynit on basketball shoes, so still would try to raise price (maybe kd 7 elite?)

The 9/6 sounds like a bamboo colorway . Want to see the taz but probably gs only. Pics of the 7s will probably leak between now and may.

Don't even ask just wait pics should be soon. The pic is more than likely with the same people who had the kobe 9 pic and wouldn't post it.
