loved lunarepic soles
i still have a grey pair of lows that i keep at the office for lunch work outs
 
Not a FKR or FKT, but a Flyknit…

Scooped these up from 3rd party market app for ~$75 DS:

as Upper donors. Not sure what the sole will be yet.
The colorblocking on these is so good, it kinda upsets me how underutilized stuff like this was outside of ID/NBY...
 
Throwing a plea out there after GOVRN found my donor for my USA swap was bad with the sole adhesive. If anyone has a 10 in the blue or neo turq, please PM!

meh a few of my pairs turning out like that over the years....i jus use some aircraft glue
 
Look kinda interesting, but like you, think black tongue works best. And to me, that goes across all color ways. Just a critical design element for the FKR model (with maybe an exception or two).

FKTs for a few miles around the swamp, pretty soggy here today so went with a bigger footprint

Worn triple black FKRs on eBay for $300…..

Glad I stocked piled a bit several years back, scored some solid deals on FKR and FKT. Hoping for some re releases come around by the time I beat my doubled up pairs into the pavement, track, etc

Seriously man...

I still have my a few Racers (Black tongue B/Ws, all whites, and MC 2.0s from the first drop), but wear my Trainers way more, due to the better stability/fit (Pale Greys x2 and Sunset Tints).

I have been looking to pick up some more Trainers (specifically Pale Greys, Olives, Volts, or Sequoias), but the only DS pairs in my size are $400+... Which I will never pay for 5-10 year old shoes I intend to wear to the gym/walking the dog...
 
^to me, FKRs are overall a more standout shoe due to performance for running. FKT by function are meant to be a versatile cross trainer, so it has compromises. But for casual wear, of course FKTs are a better play. I smh at wearing FKRs on long international trips, walking around ancient cities with cobblestone everywhere. My dogs were BARKING.
 
Wide feet make racers look like socks. Team Trainer

Been a fiend for the trainers ever since the 2012 Summer Olympics . . . The black and volt:nthat:
 
It’s personal preference.

Based on the strength of cw selection and swap compatibility, I prefer the Racers over the Trainers.

I only liked maybe six cws of the Trainers compared to maybe two dozen of the Racers lol
 
Trainers fit my feet much better but I think Racers take the cake for sure. They're still 80% of what I wear in the summer. Timeless.
