c/s for the most part but Nike did hit a few HEs out of the park. Really like the Gtown, Cuse and Duke ones. Nike needs to bring back the real waistbands from back in the day like they have with the Hoya & Cuse Hyperelites. The waistbands were probably my biggest complaints with the SODs (both twill and team-issued). Those few I mentioned don't feel as cheap as most of the other models. It was funny when I was in the 57th St Niketown the other week and they had a bunch of shorts on display and you could see a big difference IMO between the Cuse & Duke HEs compared to the UConn ones.
The biggest problem I have with the HEs is that they feel cheap as you said and a lot of the designs are way too plain and this is coming from someone who generally loves simple, classic uniforms. The duds are MAJOR duds when it comes to the Hyperelites IMO. UConn, Michigan State, Texas, Pitt and WVU are some of the HEs that I think are absolutely terrible.
Anyway, when it comes to twills it's SOD > HE easily for me. I mentioned it earlier in the thread but the HEs simply do not feel like $60 shorts to me.
It will be interesting to see where Nike goes from here. The SOD era was very short, I wonder if HE is the new standard for the next decade-plus.
I love them so far. They're light as hell and unlike the SOD shorts these don't feel like they'd have snags. The dotted checker pattern was a great touch.Originally Posted by memphisboi55
