Just be careful with those 3M laces in the 12s. The rough 3M can act like sandpaper and chew right through that flywire. And in a shoe where half the lacing system is only flywire, that could be bad juju.

For anyone who was on the fence, this should push you over.

Rocking my HOL now. Comfort straight out the box is amazing. Zero break in period. I remember wearing my KP for the first time last year on a road trip. Worst mistake ever. These are super comfy in comparison. Damn plastic eyelets have broke already tho (thanks DSG)... Definitely will be sending in to Nike to apply that voucher to my Datas.

Oh most definitely. It's not even a con in my personal book, was just giving dude the general consensus here. I agree though. I love them especially for hooping. I've never had to re-lace once during a session.

i just received my first pair of 12s, i picked up the NSRls
i have to say im not impressed. these feel very stiff and heavy and are a pain to lace up.
my current hoop shoe is the kobe 8 and im not sure what i was expecting with these but im kinda let down.
cool looking shoe but i just cant see myself hooping in these.

I really wouldn't expect a Kobe wearer to dig Brons anyway

never understood why SOME who are fans of one athlete or another, LBJ or KB dont have the ability to like the others shoe. if you like sneakers, you just like sneakers...right?

Creating hype? Like a single person can do that but I'm pretty sure you'll be in here come time to release putting in your unneeded two cents.

Ignore them Lewi, when they've dried up the same people will be saying they regret not getting them.

I don't particularly like Lebron but his shoes are awesome, Kobes my favorite player but I won't be caught dead in his thigh highs.

They're the more limited release so far right? I've only seen stock on NDC.

I bet the dunkmans would look great if the laces matched the posite.

I agree with you 100% bro
I wasn't doing the whole I wear Lebron's only and I don't wear Kobe's thing if that's what you thought
I was only stating that I wouldn't expect one who likes hooping in Kobes to like hooping in Lebrons |I
Simply because of the difference in the two styles of play and how each shoe is engineered
I for one could never get down with Kobe's because I never been a big fan of low tops
Once the Kobe 9 rumors of being a high started swirling I was interested I admit
Until I saw them and realized when they said they were gonna be highs they meant exactly that
Exactly

wasnt meant towards you at all BB. your post just invoked thoughts of some that are in here and especially in the kobe thread that have that frame of mind...lol they take that #lebrongang #kobegang stuff to heart!
