It ain't worth $200 retail Nike/Kobe tryna finesse the pockets.So the upper material has to suffer because of the fastfit tech ( assuming to make it " light") and they charge you $200

I am so damn excited right now! Finally got a chance to cop my grails!! Been wanting these since the moment I laid my eyes on them, but both the price and scarcity made it almost impossible to buy. Everything just managed to line up perfectly this time. Seller accepted my $800 bid and I was kinda shocked. The pictures the seller posted were kinda far and poor so I figured something was gonna be wrong with them when they arrived. There’s for sure a decent amount of bleeding on the toe box and front outsole, and the shoes and laces are kinda dusty/dirty. But for the price, I’m never gonna find a deal like that again so I’m keeping them and beating them to death!

Damn, what a pickup if you do end up selling that extra
Those are one of the best 9s. The knit color and the gum bottom ... sheesh

My pair came today and I have to say the fit and comfort are awesome. Grip is great too. Although I liked how the 360 looked, they inner sole with high outside bothered me and these don't. The react is super and the height works for my bad ankles and flat feet. Yes material is thin on toes, but hasn't bothered me yet and besides they look tight. Btw I got the black pair. Just my two cents...

I’m in for the white pair with a steep discount. $200 is too rich for my blood considering I’m not a heavy hooper.

Might just be my imagination but while they're both lunarlon, the 9 feels a bit more refined. Maybe slightly more dense.

9s are thicker and have more footbed traction

Average to light. I’d say the height doesn’t make it heavier like the 9 highs. The material is definitely light.

Thanks for the assessment. They don’t look heavy but just wanted to ask someone who actually has them in hand/tried them on. Can’t find them locally.

New Wade's parallel thinking. Laceless, light with red accents.

Traction is phenomenal (on the tile floor so not sure how it'll translate on dusty court). Cushioning is good too. Nice impact protection on the heel and court feel on forefoot, perfect balance imo. The FF pull system doesn't seem to lock no matter how many times I pulled on it, at least on the forefoot. Felt more secure with the strap.
Good news is they're not suffocating like the 33s. The material on the forefoot is super thin, don't like how it looks on this grey color. If it had the mesh on the Adapt BB would be better and traditional lacing.
True to size is what I'll go with, half up got toe space. Gonna wait for the black go on discount or another black color before I cop. A low would be great too.
