It's black.. Nike usually puts there sample photo as the actual product.
Not misleading though, you should of just looked online first


I did look online . On NDC where else should I have gone but Nike , to see that picture of that shoe. I think it was misleading . Not sure how you could even disagree to that . Nike isn't supposed to do that if they are shipping out shoes with black bottoms but on their official website it's colored . That's misleading,

That's like saying when I went to get those HTMS. And they weren't lunarlon sole. But on website it showed they were .
 
The Flyknit releases have been misleading. From the first general release with the white swooshes to the new colorways with the confusion of the purple pair and the color of the sole of the electric greens. They should just post the shoe that is going to be for sale.. Not sample pics. I have to agree with itsjerald because it IS misleading and annoying.
 
Do you mean Varsity Royal/ Electric Green? I ordered those too, shipping says that they are waiting for me at my house. As soon as I get home I can post a picture of them

Edit: now I see the eBay pictures, definitely seems to be misleading to me

You're right...I didn't even catch that until now.
They look terrible with black bottoms, just complain and get a 20% off code.

Thanks for the support homie, I called NDC just now and they gave me 20% off the shoe with next day air, basically gonna return these ones I'm getting tomorrow and then receiving the discounted pair Friday ,

I suggest whoever got this colorway do the same thing. The associate on the phone also felt the picture was misleading.

And Nike recognizes the error.

yea i know man, when you  get yours, or even now, call nike and get upset, theyll give you that 20 with next day ship. 

they totally dropped the balll.. i really wish it came with that green bottom though.. im tight about that
 
my volt racers just came in from the ndc restock. i'm beyond impressed by these kicks. just a sexy *** shoe man. might have slid into the top 5 of my collection.
 
What makes the volts so sexy is the semi two-toned black/neon color .... Def top 5 of the yr
 
Need some insight from you flyknit gurus..

Bouta pull the trigger on my first pair of these in white/black..

Im a size 9.5 in AM2011.. But my foot is not narrow..

What size should I cop in these?
 
I heard the AM run .5 small, so I would say stick with 9.5. But I also have a not so narrow foot, and I just purchased my first pair of Trainers and they are the most narrow Nikes I've ever worn. I wear 8.5 in everything else Nike, so I bought the Trainers in 8.5 and they are tight. Tight enough to wear I probably can't wear socks with them. Which doesn't bother me because they are meant for a sock like fit anyway. But the thing is if I would go up to a 9, they would be too long. The width would be perfect but the I'd have too much room in the toe box.

So it all comes down to how you like your shoes. If you like them tight then go with the 9.5, but if you like a little room I would say go up to a 10. But then again, you might run into the same problem I had with the length. Hope this helps.

can't believe they have a FSR of the white/blacks. Haha I have been looking for my size forever! (especially for retail). Extremely happy they restocked on these.
 
Always ones I want now are the Photo Blues ones, and of course they were the first to sell out.

Yessir. I've been wearing my pair since the July release and they're my favorite release of 2012 by far. Probably going to double up soon...

I appreciate the info..

I just ordered a 9.5 and a 10 with a gift card..

Whatever size doesnt fit I will just return to Niketown next time I go.
 
just got my pair from Running Warehouse today, sent them right back. I loved the knit upper and shoe overall, but they had no lockdown at all, felt like they were about to fall off with every step. I guess I'll wait for the lunar one's and see if those are better.

Got my pair in yesterday, these were my first and I think they're great! I went with an 11 and they feel pretty good, almost a little tight, but by the sounds of it they should break in after a few wearings.  Might try an 11.5 anyway for the next pair
