XX9 lows??!
I grabbed a pair of XX9's for $90 but I'm debating selling them and getting the Lillards instead. Are the two comparable? I know the xx9 got rave reviews, but so did these (though I'm sure the price point had a lot to do with some of the reviews). Anyone have a preference either way?
Nah they're the mids

I'm heard that from multiple peeps now. My forefoot must be really wrong. In any case, I decided the give the regular lillard 2.0 another try on a pristine court this time.
I also modified the outsole on them : cut about half of the rubber ridges off. The main complain was that the pattern was too tight, so I wanted to see if I could solve that but lowering the density of the pattern. Will report back.
New XX9's? That's going to be hard to top at $90. The forefoot cushioning didn't last as long as other shoes for me (at 5 9" 175), but the $90 tag helps to offset that.

Yeah, that's what worries me the most about the 29's is the durability/longevity of the cushioning, but I am getting deterred by the mixed reviews on the traction on the Lillards. Thanks for the input though.

I would take the XX9's at that price, but they'll both deliver. I like the XX9's transition better and traction might be more dependable on a variety of surfaces. I don't think the XX9's are leaps and bounds better than the Lillard 2's, and the Lillard 2's aren't drastically different enough to warrant selling the XX9's to get a pair.
I had to use a heated cutting tip on a soldering iron, as it was too hard to do with just a cold exacto knife.Let us know!! Also, how did you go about removing some of the traction lines?
hes one of the best ones out thereShow me the way to this plug...
Good to know, any difference between the traction at all?
Got to play first time in my Rose Citys, and I prefer them over Rip Citys performance-wise. The outsole has that Continental-badge and it smells like tire rubber the fabric upper is a bit rougher, almost a denim-like material. The fit is a little bit tighter in the Rose City's. Small things but a little bit better fit for me.
I'd say Rose City's traction is a little bit consistent and stickier. But not much. Just enough to notice it at times.

I've been told the forefoot on the Harden's feel a bit better than GR CLB 2015s, do you have any to compare them to and confirm?Came home to a Care package from the plug at adidas today
I do not sorry. These are also samples so I would love to compare them to the released pairI've been told the forefoot on the Harden's feel a bit better than GR CLB 2015s, do you have any to compare them to and confirm?
