Nike KD 9: Release Info on Page 1

[ajny88]

thanks.

do you have the regular KDs or the elites? seen people say they like the regulars better than the elites.

I've got both and imo the elites are way better. Less narrow and more comfy flyknit.

nikestore has em on sale for 109..

about $40 more than what most of us are willing to pay lol

Regular 9s are better than the Elites tbqh but it could be personal preference, Elites are so much narrow. Amazing ball shoe though.

Elite's felt "better" from just a try on.. not on court usage. Upper materials alone. Felt and fit better.

lookin for some new basketball shoes. either going with the 9 Elites, PG1 or Kobe AD.

anyone have experience in more than 1 of the three and can give me comparisons and best option recommendation?

I ball in regular Kd9's when my legs feeling sore. Also use them for shoot arounds and warmups.
PG1's when my legs feel fresh and also more of my go to shoe along with Jordan 30's.
Can't seem to cop the Kobe AD's cause the materials feeling super stiff compared to other models. Rather ball in the Kobe XI or NXT.

Two things that I think a lot of people are missing about the AD. The material breaks in after like 4-5 games and isn't really bad before that & the cushion is so much better in the forefoot than the XI (havent tried the nxt). The Lunarlon after break in feels like the Crazy Explosive forefoot to me.

I asked my local HoH if they're dropping the KD 9 multi color elite on Friday. They said they don't think they are. Haven't gotten shipment or info about them dropping.

Damn.

AP's are sitting on NDC at discount almost a full size run. They used to sell out.

Just like Nike Basketball X-Mas, Easter, other themed shoes. Times have changed.

There has been no hype on these. I really hope they're easy to get.

 

[kobe824]

Just curious, is it possible to sell a Nike voucher and not get caught? Like is it linked to your address and they'll automatically reject it if you use another address.

Seems like they could be the like the pink dust release. Limited to certain account. Since I know foot locker stores won't be getting them.

Open up a claim and ship it, I got another of my KDs that popped and was approved on Monday.

 

[nstanton]

^i just did and got label. Will ship this weekend

 

[ajny88]

It's so disappointing every time I hear about another popped KD9, I haven't heard of any popped Elites (yet) though.

I got mine from ndc so it's a guaranteed voucher in case they pop?

 

[salacious crumb]

I did some digging and the multi color KD 9 elite is supposed to drop tomorrow on NDC. Maybe a Nike lab release?

Select sneaker shops are getting them too. I guess the same that got the pink dust elite since they are limited.

It's not really that big of a problem, used my USAs for a year balling every week and it held up amazingly. Only reason my other pair was popped was because I bought it used on eBay and it was caved in when it came in lol. Paid $50 for em after a complaint with the seller and about to get a $200 voucher in return hehehe. [emoji]128527[/emoji]

Well done sir, that's how we eat round here. Part of me hopes my pair pops after the KD10 comes out 

 

[salacious crumb]

Well, looks like the KD 9 elite multi didn't drop today. Not on NDC or on Nike Lab. 

The waiting game begins.
