New KD 10s???


View media item 2423762

Yikes looks like a ******ed version of the Elites tbh

I truly hope those aren't the 10's

They are. Color code matches with what drops June 3. It's like an elite low. Hopefully the same midsole on the X means same price as the 9. But who knows, whole shoe looks flyknit this time. Which isn't a bad thing.

I do hope it's $150 or even less. I was out on the 7 and 8 after thier retail price.

I'd heard that Nike might want to reuse the tooling from the kD9 on the 10s. Was a good way for them to save some cost. Not sure that makes sense considering all the popped zoom bags. I sure hope Nike fixes the design flaw and addresses the lateral stability. Fingers crossed that isn't the final version of the 10...

If they fixed the small tube that connects the forefoot to the mid/heel zoom area, then it should be a pretty fun shoe, if you liked the nines. I hope flyknit-fullzoom and the $150 retail are a staple of the KD line from here on out.

I'm just waiting on deep discounts before I eat up some Elites, and I hope those are indeed the X's...

Top bad we don't EVER get doz

Can't go wrong with the full zoom set up, honestly I don't know how they could top the current cushioning unless KD asks for something drastically different. Hopefully the traction gets better - I constantly have to wipe the translucent soles on my 9s - fingers crossed for herringbone or something similar.

Wondering if stability/support in the upper is as good with full Flyknit? Also interesting that the lacing system is completely detached from the upper now - it just wraps around the Flyknit. I hope this improves lateral support, and fixes the extreme tightness around the midfoot vs. the elites - I have to down half a size for KDs because of the extra length, and the elites KILLED my midfoot so I had to return them

Not mad that they kept it close to the 9s. Should be less pain at the seam as there isnt one, i like the added grey support pieces. The midsole shape looks a little different but the tooling looks the same. If they fixed the channel issue should be a good performer, but i was hoping there would be an outrigger that caged the zoom on the lateral forefoot

 

[gwizzle]

They need to fix the heel lock down issue!

 

[unconscious]

A better look from Sneakernews. Seems legit at this point. Will cop a dark CW if the fit isn't super narrow like the elite 9s.

Pre Heats still avail anywhere for decent price?

Guessing Nike didn't send out reserves for these? Got the Kobe.

I'm not a fan of UT (eff Mack Brown), but those are dope.
If only they weren't so close to the summer pack colorway.
