Nike KD 9: Release Info on Page 1

[salacious crumb]

Has anyone picked up or have the flip the switch pair?

How is it in person? Going to try to go to the mall later and see in person.

Won't cop unless I get discount on them and I don't have any.

Just like in pictures I like them in person. Will get them with discount later as they're sitting like the Time to Shine

I still like fireberry even if Nike has renamed it...

It's about time! Check your local FTL. Waiting for this color way. And the BHM too. $79 each. My size sold out so have to order and pick it up at other store. My got from 34th NYC.

 

[salacious crumb]

Can't say no for $79.

Gonna get the style number for the BHM and see if they can order for me at $79.

Really wish they would fix the airbag popping problem or I woulda picked up multiple pairs tbh, they were that good :/

I guess they really are the 10's, they're already up on the bay

but the box look so fake...

Looks like the flex connection point was fixed on the Elites?

Top is the Elite outsole. If you look at the flex point it seems more solid. The regular one on the bottom does not have a solid connection so when it flexes the rubber starts to thin out then over time it snaps. Have not heard of the Zoom popping on the Elites.

Probably because not many people bought them and it's only been what, a month or 2 since release?

Picked up the Mic Drops today. They changed the design of models after the Mic Drops to make them easier to get into. The ankle collar opening is smaller and tighter to get into in the Mic Drops.

I just checked my Oreos, Mic Checks and Time to Shine Elite's and they all have the fragile flexpoint. They must've just started with the new flex points on the newest models.

I ID'd 2 pairs of KD's during the last NDC Clearance sale, they both came with the solid flex point.

Sauces (Xmas) are by far the most difficult pair of mine to put on. Preheat, USA, Mic Drops, Summers all go on with no problem.

Checked the ID'd pair I made in January and they do have to he solid flexpoint also.

2 days, 2 KD 9 pick ups. Can't be beat for almost half off at $79.

BHM just picked up. I think I'm done with the KD 9 model. No elites yet.

Thanks in advance if anyone could help out

[buckeye84]

Yup literally every colorway is $80

Even the preheats?  Site says avail in store but im curious if the price is $80 on those

 

[jamesandstl]

I cant even lie, these things are super clean. I don't know how often I would wear them, but I am digging them. Might have to grab when they are discounted. I really liked the "Birds of Paradise" or whatever, but hearing the bag popping issues I might have to sit these out.

 

[traps11]

Not sure if anyone posted these...apparently Nike outlet exclusive MCs. Seen in fl
