Excellent point on the $50 "Air" shoes...

Wally, I feel your argument. Plus, I know you are a tried & true Nike Training fan for years, so when it comes to your opinion, I listen.

For me, last year's 1.2 and this year's 1.3 do it for me. I don't play all that much basketball, but I play indoor volleyball year round and despite owning dozens of DS basketball shoes, I use my rotation of 1.2s & 1.3s as my go-to kicks on the court. Excellent lateral support and just enough cushioning to not be a heavy shoe.  At the gym, if I'm not wearing a running shoe, I am in on one of my 1.2/1.3s.

I love the 1.3. I actually prefer it over the 1.3 Max Trainer, which has an upper thats one of the oddest shaped and most uncomfortable I've worn in years. 

But the plain jane 1.3 is one of my favorite releases this year.  Forget the hyped colorways/school colorways....I'll take some GR colorways and call it a day.

I love the 1.2!!!! I use it for weights/plyometrics and some insanity like training.  Its also good for a light jog (running long distances its a little clunky, but remember people its a x-trainer!!!) 
Its good a good solid base, semi good cushioning (could be better, but for a xtrainer its great!!)  I also think it looks great, and I was able to pick up numerous pairs for $40 shipped from ebay hahahaha!!!!!
Im praying the 1.3 can be got for those prices, cause if so Ill grab 4 pairs off the bat!!!

I know for a fact the the trainers are not a 4E-Extra wide standard. Please elaborate on this because the regular non rivalry trainer for the 1.3 frees are are a regular D-Medium width.

Thanks in advance!

All of the Nike Rivalry Free Trainer 1.3s we are receiving will be in a normal width.  The 4E Extra Wide width was just a typo.
