Official NIKE HUARACHE TR MID Thread Vol. Haven't been this excited since...

[robsheedwallace]

Anyone elses straps feel tight when strapping your feet down and not even tight. I only get that feeling with my right foot. Don't know if to size up just cause of that or hope they will loosen up. Left foot feels fine.

 

[dmxgod]

YES THEY'RE RELEASING!!!!!!

 

[bak ymmij]

YEESSSS!!!!!

I work that day so hopefully I can still get my pairs. Thats right pairs, I love this shoe.

So Mayhem - they fit true to size?

 

[wings90]

Saw it on Twitter yesterday.  

 I don't regret missing out on the Green Hornets as much. If I can actually get a pair of these, that is.

yea but 1/2 size up wouldn't be terrible....i have no complaints with the 12.5 sample but for sure i will cop a 12 and probably another 12.5 as well.

[rocketsfan]

Oh yes...I've been waiting for the cool grey/volts to drop

So are the Alpha Collection trainers GRs??

 

[peeeeeejay]

 They look like studio pics... can't blame em for being everywhere...

Size-wise, I found them to run slightly big actually.  The toebox felt a bit roomy for my kinda-wide feet.

Oh and nice PS's Wally... simplicity.  The Oregon ones were my fav.

 

[mayhemgatz]

....my office break room provides the best photo setup

from what i know....they'll be on NDC, dunno about anything in stores.

someone should call a Niketown and find out

 

[rocketsfan]

@nikestore's twitter says the Alpha Collections are "definitely limited"

http://twitter.com/#!/nikestore/status/32866735921045504

 

[jfmartimcdandruff]

limited in the fact that it's an "online release"????

 

[mayhemgatz]

they said there's no word on physical locations and they don't know if other online sites will have them as well cause they "only know the Nike side of things" 

NDC for sure

and Niketown NYC knows nothing about the release...as usual

 

[joesanerd]

Been waiting for a colorway worth dropping the money for these... think I have a reason to now.. Mmm

 

[Fresh Like Will]

^ If that's how it ends up. How would it work? I hope it's not an NDC only thing if that's the case.

Glad they're releasing, but why do they need to be limited?

 

[bak ymmij]

I was really hoping these would be GR so everyone would be able to get a pair.

Hopefully some NT get some in other then NDC.

 

[wallyhopp]

I have good word that this release has been canceled. Everyone go drink and have fun for SB sunday and totally forget about this release please.

If NDC says limited, I haven't seen one set of limited shoes last more than 10 minutes on NDC's web page. We'll see where I am around kickoff, but if there's no concrete time, I'm not about that life of waiting around like a horse and pony show. If I forget, I'll move onto that next must have item.

i will say, get it together Nike. You have many GRs just sitting on all major retailer websites, all FSRs.. Nike has it ingrained in their mind that the shoe either has to be limited in a cool or weird colorway to make it "appealing". Or the total contrast of that with GRs that just lack total imagination, creativity, and sit for a reason. I'm just totally confused. The other black.volt colorway is sitting... FSRs for days and days.

These are gonna be sold out in minutes, and not because they are "limited". Nike wants to believe that, but the colorway and entire package is actually well put together. If you read any of the sneaker blogs, you have random people leaving comments about how awesome those shoes are. No indication given at that time if they were limited or not. People just straight up liking what they see. I think Mayhemgatz deserves a royalty check. Photos alone, like that, can push units.. But now knowing it'll be limited, the units pushed will be minimal.

 

[mayhemgatz]

it's Nike....we'll never know their reasoning for making the good cw's limited and the crap cw's abundant

.....totally agree

i'll settle for a job taking pics of upcoming samples....just send them to me Nike

 

[earvcunanan]

Sorry for the noob question, but what is NDC?

 

[peeeeeejay]

It's Nike dot Com....

in the end....$105 shipped, definitely happy considering i would have shelled out $150 for 'em if i had to. Nike needs to release them asap, one just isn't enough

i'd kill for Amare's PE's....i'm always admiring them and going on to my friends about how they need to drop them

i guess he had another pair because i won a pair from same seller for 75.00 shipped

  

 

[rawairmia]

Loved this shoe since day 1,will be coppin' no matter what.

 

[ballerchild]

How’s the fit on these? Do they run true to size? I’m usually a size 10 in all nike basketball shoes (ie. Kobe V&VI, hyperfuse, hyperdunk 2010’s), so should I stick to the same size? Thanks!
