OFFICIAL: Nike Zoom FLYKNIT Collection - Racers + Trainers ONLY - (SIZE POLL ON FIRST PAGE. CHECK TH

[hammertoe]

For anyone looking for some red racers, here you go.  There are only a few sizes left and it looks like it's free shipping to the US.  Not sure what the conversion will be, but it's probably going to be $165-170 shipped.  Also, they do not show up on the US site.

Damn I had those black/white's from 2012 and sold this this past summer. never got around to wearing them.

Do the black and white racers go for more than the black and white trainers? Also what's the deal with some being padded and unpadded?

 

[lucaXbrahski]

Anybody else getting close to pre-ordering these from RRS? It says the shipment date is April 4th.

::looks around, raises hand:: They come out day after my bday- definitely going to grab them as I think they will be "the next best thing".

Super annoyed right now. One of the Nike outlets here got a stock of MC racers in a week ago ($109.97 CDN). Wasn't known on the forums until this morning, which by that time was too late and the last few small sizes were bought up in the early afternoon.

That's terrible . I think we're seeing the last little bit of the MC Racer returns from last year making their ways to retail outlets for the last time. I hope I'm wrong :\.

gonna need a bot to cop the white pair off ebay

Racers ONLY come in the unpadded form so you shouldn't need to worry about that.

Maybe in the US, but I believe the Canadian outlet stock are most likely pairs that didn't move at their Toronto location/Employee Store.

For the trainers what's the general consensus on padded vs unpadded? I ordered a pair of MC trainers and they were padded.

If you remember when the MC Racers dropped I believe the ES store was under that long renovation during the spring/summer. So they never got their stock.

You should probably not bring up that topic as it has generated much heated debate many times in this thread in the past. As for that specific colorway, it was only released as a padded version. Unpadded versions only exist for trainers that were produced prior to late 2012.

The advent of the Unpadded vs padded debate was a way for some people to feel special about their older pairs for some reason.

Oops, sorry didn't mean to reignite any past fires haha, anyways thanks for the info! I feel that trainers are more comfortable to work out in and trainers I rock casually.

Zoom air in the forefoot and heel definitely helps. Was never a fan of lunarlon, always preferred zoom air.

Not exactly sure where to post this (please redirect me if there is a thread), but has anyone had any experience with customizing/recoloring their Flyknit material? 

I've seen a few people recoloring/redying the non-Flyknit portions of their shoes such as the tongue or the midsole, but not the actual material itself.

I'm sure it has been brought to form in some way or another, but I would really enjoy seeing a "Salmon Toe" made out of the Squadron Blues:

Just a really rough 5 minute photoshop job I did, but you get the idea.

Has anyone had the courage to attempt a dye job? 

My only fear is that the flyknit upper would lose its various shades of dark/lighter knitting, and just become a solid color which isn't what I'm trying to do.

i thought of that before too... please go ahead and do it!

Funny you say that because i called for some info on the white pair and the lady told me that they are still active on NDC so a restock is bound to happen. She also said that it will be in very limited quantity.

[h1]NIKE FLYKNIT TRAINER+[/h1][h2]UNISEX RUNNING SHOE [/h2]
$150                              532984-100

The Nike Flyknit Trainer+ Unisex Running Shoe (Men's Sizing) was designed based on insights from the world's best marathon runners. Like the Nike Flyknit Racer, it features a virtually seamless knit upper for targeted support, breathability and a snug fit.

LIGHT FOR FLIGHT

The Nike Flyknit Trainer+ Unisex Running Shoe (Men's Sizing) was designed based on insights from the world's best marathon runners. Like the Nike Flyknit Racer, it features a virtually seamless knit upper for targeted support, breathability and a snug fit.

Available in men's sizes. Reference the Size Chart above to convert a women's size to men's. 

BENEFITS

• Lightweight, breathable one-piece upper that moves with the foot
• Flywire threads that wrap the midfoot for better fit and support
• Nike Zoom technology in the heel and forefoot for responsive cushioning
• Weight: 8.4 ounces (men's size 10)
•  

TARGETED SUPPORT

The one-piece knit upper of the Nike Flyknit Trainer seamlessly integrates areas of high support, stretch and breathability where you need them most-without overlays, which add weight. For an adaptive fit, lightweight dynamic Flywire wraps the foot and is adjustable through the laces.

ORIGINS

Nike Flyknit technology was inspired by feedback from runners craving a shoe with the snug (and virtually unnoticed) fit of a sock. Nike embarked on a four-year mission with teams of programmers, engineers and designers to create the technology needed to make the knit upper with static properties for structure and durability. Then the precise placement of support, flexibility and breathability-all in one layer-was refined. The result is a featherweight, form-fitting and virtually seamless upper.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS

• Waffleskin rubber outsole with a diamond-shaped pattern for lightweight durability and traction
• Nike+ ready for easy run tracking
