Yeah I don't think these are as narrow. These feel like the Kyrie 1s after they were broken in

Can someone do a solid black lace swap? I feel there's one too many things going on (from the print on the strap, the print on the heel, the diamond pattern threading on the upper and the speckled laces). Obviously can't change anything except the laces.

Quick first impressions. Lockdown and traction were definite highlights. Toebox is a little more spacious, was able to go TTS on these whereas I had to go .5 up on the 1s. The overall fit and the strap really help to make the shoe feel like an extension of your foot and there's pretty much no movement within the shoe once you lace up. Traction didn't squeak on the court I was playing on but these are definitely better than the 1s I think because of the pliable rubber and multidirectional pattern. The cushion was pretty mediocre - couldn't feel the heel zoom unit and the forefoot phylon is thin. The difference in forefoot and heel also plays into the transition as the heel is noticeably higher off the ground and almost feels like it's pushing you forward a little bit. However, because they only used phylon, court feel in these is amazing. Very low to the ground. As for overall stability, I'm conflicted. I know Nike used the rounded outsole on these because of the whole banking/cutting concept but I feel like it comes at the expense of overall stability. I never felt like my foot was gonna roll over when I was just walking or running in a straight line, but I could feel it start to on hard cuts. I also haven't turned my ankle in at least a year and I did in these within an hour of my lacing them up.
I want to like these. They look sick and they actually have a lot going for them. I hope the ankle rolling was just a one time thing and stability isn't actually an issue. Honestly the shape and form factor on these remind me a lot of the original hyperrev, except with more structure and better traction. Too bad they couldn't incorporate the original cushioning setup of the og hyperrev. Will see after I put in some more time in them whether or not I'll keep them in the rotation.
