I'm going to trust you guys that the aways don't look near as good in person. Plus I do already have a ton of black and red shoes. But dang do they look good in some of those pics!

After being underwhelmed by the aways I have definitely had the TWs grow on me. After the KPs, I don't want to see some bland CW; the breds are great, don't get me wrong, but for $200 I want something that pops, and the KPs and TWs so far are the only ones that do something for me. I know some people think the TWs are garbage, but the 3M makes the shoe for me. Like someone said earlier, beauty of opinons.

it doesn't bother rrp at $280 here in australia as our hourly rate of pay is far better than the usa I'll be on most colourways in the xi's . The job I do here I'd be lucky to get $15 hr in the states and I make $38hr here all works out the same in the long run .we get to live freely when we are in the usa on holidas especially with the recent run with the dollar

If anyone is in Miami, the 11|11 Experience starts today. You can buy the Heat Aways early and they're also giving out bracelets to purchase the Forged Irons and Gamma Blues early. I'm in line now for the forged irons bracelet. Already copped a second pair of Heat Aways.

I agree, although the shoe aesthetically had little appeal. Comfort and great ball shoe were about all the shoe had going for it.
