Go ahead and take my money!

I feel the same exact way. this is the one colorway of the omn1s i wanted but didnt want to shell out 700-1k for them. Hopefully luck will be on all our sides and we all get a pair

I just hope there’s some miUSA models to go along with it. Tired of the cheap miA 997s

 

[Shoeboy4]

I would personally love to see a nice 990v5 to go along with them.

Was wondering if a lifestyle pair would drop as well. That would be interesting and create a slight dilemma. As for resell on these, JFG hit a ceiling of 375ish and these might too. Lets see the final product before we start bidding

 

[Shoeboy4]

Tomorrow could be very interesting hopefully he wears them in G1

Welp someone leaked that early was supposed to be unveiled tomorrow morning at 10am est 7am pst. sad that the nb hoops social media team didnt get to share this info without it being leaked, they have been very open and forthcoming with information in the conversations i have had with them

 

[I_AM_BORED]

Wonder if the fit will be same as omn1s (half sz down). Guess safest way is to order both sizes and return one if possible

 

[Shoeboy4]

Looking at the shoe and how the omn1s is made the back of the sig shoe is significantly straighter up and down than the omn1s. As you can see the omnis has a back that hangs out and curves significantly like one of their newer running shoes like the 1080v10, also the sig shoe has a bootie inside it as you can see in this pic. the fingerprint/brain pattern is a bootie with the top of the tongue stitched on and it loops down and into that back piece that goes over the back of the shoe. i grabbed a pic of the all white ones he wore long ago and put black lines where the booty in the shoe seems to go as you can see there is an open gap under that ankle piece that isnt seen as clearly on some colorways.

The 1080v10 runs short and the Omn1s runs big. Omn1s is an outlier in the line fit-wise. Expect the Kawhi to be more standard sizing

 

[thapointguy]

OK those are nice

 

[Shoeboy4]

Looking like there is some sort of career accolades on the tongue as well I can see all star, champion, finals mvp and dpoy

I should have clarified I meant the shape of the heel cup and it’s curvature not the overall fit of the shoe on the 1080v10’s. I have a feeling the half size down from the Omn1s will not be the same for the signature

I like what NB has been doing. I may take a swing at these.

 

[carolinakickg]
