He meant that because of a new sku, he thought there would be a new model. However, the platinums had the new sku, and all they did was put digi-camo on the back tab and tongue tag. So the next three with the new sku will have similar changes (the blue tint shoes posted a couple pages back have the new sku and the same changes).

It'd be great if the "new" FKR model had dual zoom cushioning (like the Trainers had), but I suspect it's just the mixed/colorblocked knit hybrid with the same construction... The possibility of dual zoom could justify the extra $10 Sneaker News is reporting, but it's more likely that they have incorrect info or Nike is slowly going to raise the price on a shoe with nearly 5 year old tech (which they've obviously been known to do in the past; i.e. Jordans).
Nike is definitely trying to re-hype the Racer line with the absurdly quick sellouts between the Plats and Blackouts. I definitely enjoyed the wider selection/discounted options that came with massive, mostly mixed weave drops that sat on NDC/FTL/etc. in the past year or so, although I haven't bought a pair of Racers since my MC 2.0s almost a year ago. These new Blues might change that though...
Edit: My god that rendering is awful. Looks like the worst parts of BDSM apparel/Y-3/Acronym combined. Hopefully those stay a concept, otherwise hype beasts will begin to look like ninja ballerinas with their ribbons tied up their calves.

Don't think those acronyms are a thing. Looks like a concept mock-up designed by a fan

Dope first racer man. One of the best FKR cws IMO. When I first got them in hand, I was blown away with how good they look in person.

Weird. IMO those Oreo 2.0 are the worst pair of racers I own. It's been worn once or twice and now is the at the bottom of the never wear racer pile I have chillin with the pink/orange

Worst? Now that's surprising. I've actually never come across someone who really didn't like the Oreo 2.0, but of course there's a first for everything

"ill cop at a discount"...sells out asap on snkrs...."wth why were they so limited?"
when did BNTL fade? so much salt in the thread that the plat's sold out. same thing happened with the blackouts.
like many have mentioned before, might as well buy them with nike's return policy.

I feel slightly the same. I won't say they are the worst, but of the 15+ FK pairs i have, these are near the bottom. The only one i hate more, and regret purchasing, were the vomits (blue midsole). Never even wore them and was too lazy to return.
Also don't really care for my chlorines.
its actually not that salty in here. IMO, people seem to have moved on pretty quickly. More salt when people struck out on the black outs.

Plats just shipped from this mornings drop. I think that is the fastest Nike has ever shipped an order for me
