Replica racers/trainers exist. IMO they look close enough to the real thing to fool the non-hardcore fans.

What up NT,
Did standard shipping and got these beasts in the mail today. They look fresh! The flyknit feels "firmer" than my flyknit running shoes. I guess that helps for basketball purposes.
Honestly, to co-sign what some of the other performance reviews some of ya'll have posed -- the bottom sole is SO THIN. I would hate to step on a sharp rock or even a nail in these beasts. It would go right through and put me on the bench like Kobe.

its weird to hear, well first ill clarify to each their own some like for performance some for whatever other reason, but its weird to hear the guys who got just for style talk about how these really are amazing or how great they are.... just curious, and being serious, how do you know? if your not out actually performing in them how do you know how great the shoe is or is not, or is it just a comment based 100% on the aesthetics and how well you can rock them casually. Again, no harm meant toward anyone, just something that has been popping in my head as I read the posts. You bought em, do what you will with them.

RSVPs have nothing to do with the actual store. All of them are run from the same place, iirc.

Is it just me or do the tongue on these ones look like ****?
I had to enter a FTL raffle today. I never win those, but I got to check these Kobes out at Nike and I hope I can get them.

Tongue is too bland compared to the rest of the shoe. MP is really a Masterpiece.

The same way you determine if one dress shoe is more comfortable than another. Simply by wearing a shoe around you can determine if it's more comfortable than a previous model. When casual wearers talk comfort it's not based on performance.

Ya not as nice as the MPs. It's the stitching pattern and the material that makes it different. Here's a better pic

i noticed how different IX's have different tongue stitching pattern.
