The foamposite feature errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ARMOPOSITE on the XI seems like a gimmick to raise prices

the 9 ID foam has nothing to do with anything related to the 11s tho

i agree Nike tested the 9s with foam .....is this a  "possible" price increase

 

[redrum3281]

if the xi are as comfortable as the x i'll grab a pr

If that Swoosh didn't exist these would've easily been mistaken for Adidas. I'll give em a 7 out of 10. I can't wait to laugh at the South Beach thread for these.

 

[daddyrabbit251]

Stop whining about price increase man

Y'all just paid $180 for a shoe that was ALL plastic.

$200 isn't that big of deal for a "posite" shoe or people that don't buy every single color of the same sneaker

Throw a limited tag and some screaming colors on these joints and the people complaining will be the first in line for them.

With that said, these to me, resemble more of the soldier line. The Canon esque color way is the only one that stands out to me.








Gotta wait for more C/W.

 

[tjonpoint]

I'll wait till these hit the outlets

 

[outlaw8413]

I'm already missing the full length visible air unit

How do people even come up with conclusions like this. Adidas? Really?

I swear people say anything just to put their 2 cents in.

For $30 less than retail?

Will need to get use to seeing the swoosh tilted like that(the tail end pointing downward). Hope it's not weird looking when looking down at the shoes.

hate to break it to you but every year nike comes up with a gimmick to raise prices.

 

[thapointguy]

The price was gonna increase no matter if it was 'posite or not. Get use to the "premium" pricing as it has no ceiling. Either you get them or you don't. Nike don't care they got their money already.

here's another:

Top row, middle shoe is sick!

Can I get a grey\blue a la LeBron IIs colorway?

 

[lobotomybeats]

double.

 

[brewc1ty]

lol @ "gimmick"... a gimmick would be the Superhero Elites or the Space Exploration/Extraterrestrial Pack..

im assuming the air max/zoom unit on the past models was a gimmick too then?

 

[carltonjunior]

They look awful to me. I really can't feel those at all man.

 

[5am6oody72]

Wow theyre really starting to push the envelope design wise. IDK if this is a good or bad thing

It's a GREAT thing. These are fresh as hell I haven't liked a new Nike bball shoe this much in awhile.

 

[brewc1ty]

any word on there being multiple versions for the 11s like there was with the 10s and 8s?

i hope they just stick with one version again this time around

 

[jada2001retro]

For $30 less than retail?

Hilarious.

[lobotomybeats]

nice! thanks, sir!

 

[sbib1130]

these kind of remind me of the ultraposites.

 

[marco23]

they're ok, if a cool colorway comes out i might cop but that $200 price tag is a bit steep. 

 

[KanyIZZY]

THESE YELL SOLDIERS TO ME AND I NEVER OWNED A PAIR... GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME TO SAVE MONEY SO IM HAPPY. NO IDEA HOW YOU GO FROM THE 10'S TO THESE THO
