Anyone who has the green camo pair..... is the zoom soft like the regular XX8's or hard like the SE's that came out after Christmas? Thanks.

Are these good for wide footers? I have a weird foor shape where I have tried multiple pairs of Nike basketball shoes in the past-- Hyperfuse, Hyperdunk, Kobe 8, 9's, etc and they all rub against the side of my pinky toe.

It's the same as the other SEs, seems a bit harder than the shroudless XX8

Ok thanks. I thought I read somewhere that there were a pair of camos that were softer than the others.

Damn. No more 28s for me. I don't care if they come out with a nice colorway. I looked closely at how the sole bends the rubber and it is a terrible design although it performs really well if it doesn't rip or pop. My right shoe on my grey camo pair hisses when I step on it, but the weird thing is, it doesn't feel like it has popped. The air pocket still seems to be very sturdy. I've got a ds pair of the green/black camo that I'm gonna have to get rid of.

almost the exact same thing happened to me. i went to school with a girl that works at my local HOH and she held me down the size 13 and instead of going before work like i told her i went after work
she was looking out but i played around with that snooze button for a good 30 minutes instead of waking my *** up to go handle business

It's not worth worrying about man. I'm pretty sure nobody has nailed down an exact cause of the bags popping. Just go full out and enjoy playing in them. If they pop, then they pop. There's nothing you can do about it.

Has anybody played in the XX8 SE "Playoff" (the one with Atomic Mango colorway)? I wonder if there is any change with the feel of the zoom units. Could they be at least a bit more durable than the earlier releases of the XX8 SE?

^Ooops, my bad. Sorry about that. (Obiter: Where I live, though -- Philippines -- they've already dropped.)

looks like we are never going to see that all black colorway that Westbrook plays in or that sample picture a while back...

Strange, in-store the actual shoe has a different color for the tongue.

Could it be that the tongue is 3M and looks black but reflects?

Yes the tongue is reflective

Negative bruh, it really is plain black in person.
edit: Not so sure about the rest of the PO pack, though. They do look like they have that 3M reflective tongue. Or maybe I just wasn't able to look at the XX8 SE at a certain angle so that the tongue will reflect?
edit: Well, the description for the pack does say "Strategic color blocking is featured on each shoe in addition to reflective elements for extra shine. The playoff pack incorporates black reflective material, as a nod to the Air Jordan V heritage, and team-inspired colorways."

Saw the PO in person. Black tongue but it's reflective. Very nice but with so much heat releasing, I had to pass
