I really hope that we will have the option to replace the mesh with suede. Make it happen Nike!

I'm gonna be a broke SOB if these joints come through right. I've still got a pair from circa 04-05 that I've taking extra care of until the chancecame up again.

I just hope the splattered midsole is an option and not a requirement. judging from the material samples in the pic above, I could potentially devote a wholecredit card balance to some iD's here... usa's, maybe a take on urawas, lot's of other possibilities.

I hope they're gonna be up to par with the IDs from 05. I need to make myself another pair of these.

i went a little wild in 2005 with the IDs - both studio and online - and even though i have a nice stock i might have to pick up a few of these provided theylook good.
the pricing is kinda frustrating though. if they raise 'em past $135 then they're just not worth it imo

Apparently it's not 3M, it's 'Reflective', whatever that means. Hopefully someone here buys on day 1 and posts a photo byusing a flash.

"reflective" won't light up like 3M does when taken with a flash... it just looks shiny with a flash but that's about it.

do people realize that "3M" is just the name of the company that makes the reflective material we're familiar with seeing? to say something is"not 3m" but instead a "reflective" material doesn't make sense. "3M" IS a reflective material. If it doesn't do what 3Mdoes when light is shined directly on it, then it isn't reflective.

I'll make an assumption that this is a non 3m product, and doesn't reflect to the degree 3m (patented and neverseen another version of it) does. I assume it's some new material by Nike that won't be as good. Only 2 weeks to find out....
And yes, i think people realise.

Oh I remember pretty well the really outlandish colorways everyone made back in 05. (Has it really been four years ago?!) Black buffalo print, with infrared,patent leather white, neon green, with laser blue, pink, and some brown all thrown in all on one shoe.
I really missed out on all the available options at the studio though.
Wasn't it only $110 w/ a free shipping code too?
Nike needs to do more customization with the IDs. Playing with some of the am90s was pretty infuriating.

Does anyone know if these are still going to be available this month? I've already blown my monthly shoe allowance for the month within the first week so Ineed some time to put aside a little more cash.

There is nothing like 3m scotchlite. Remember the Air Max 1 "hold tight"?

yes of course, but it just seemed to me that people thought "reflective" was something else. I can imagine the new reflective material not beingquite as bright as 3M's, but I bet it will still be cool either way. actually to me sometimes the real 3M can be a little much, haha. it's BRIGHT whenlight hits it.
