No, its not a sizing issue--they fit perfectly on me as well..i think its that whole new tech with the lightweight foam material that makes up that part ofthe shoe..in the slam magazine for the olympics there is a contest for a signed pair of kobe pe's he had worn already and those are all creased up alongthe midsole as well. It kinda sucks as the shiny part was my favorite part of the shoe actually

So any info on the argentinas?
Where will we be able to get Country PEs?
Is there gonna be any shirts for the blackout or any other GRs?
How did everyone already get there HDs of FNL.com?
Also will we be able to use coupons on these? (i.e. $15 off $100 @ FNL)

Yeah I'm definately going to say that the creasing will not be avoided. It kind of reminds me of the original kobe 1 that adidas put out. You could ball init for just one day but the way the material was it just got creased up. As much as you may not like the creasing it was designed for ballin and that is mostlikely part of the new tech. I honestly don't mind the creasing at all on my shoes I just don't like them to get dirty. That's what really bothersme

And too add to some other posts that I have been seeing I kept reading that the china, puerto ricon and one more that I can't remember were going to begr's on the 26th and the rest of the country CW like russia and argentina are slated to drop at HOH. So I thought all the main ones were suppossed to getthem. NT NDC footlocker eastbay etc. Now we are getting conflicting information. I wish that we could update the first page with everything that we know issolid so we all know where we can go on the 26th to get the ones that we want.

I had the clicking sound too, in which I described as 'sounding like a plastic bottle being squeezed'. The creasing is normal because of thematerial used like stated.

Hello All!
I received my Black/Black-Anthracite Hyperdunks TODAY from FNL.com! I tried them on they feel like heaven on my feet.
They fit true to size. I wear 8.5 in most Nike shoes except for Jordan Brand. It seems to vary with Jordan Brand.
I'll be playing 3 hours of basketball this Saturday to see how well they perform. I usually wear thick socks and McDavid ankle sleeves.
The shoe is a true hi-top. They feel higher than the Air Jordan 5s.
The Nike Hyperdunk will replace my Adidas Kobe 1 Mesh which I play in every Saturday.
If anyone wants me to write a review on these shoes after Saturday, let me know. I'd be glad to do so.
Thanks for reading!

i finally add some red accents to the plain and boring swoosh at the toe box area....i think they look better. when i wore them today and looked down, i wasbothered by how plain the swoosh was so i decided to outline them....i like them this way...thought i share....

That's pro. Leaving those swooshes plain was lame. Red or blue outline or filling would have really spiced it up. That outline looks good.. I kind of feellike my blackouts are too plain. Come on next Friday
