Has there been an explanation as to why the invisible cloaks were made? Usually theres a story behind specific colorways.

That's funny. I slept with my debit card next to my pillow constantly waking up multiple times hoping that someone canceled their order, but I ended up sleeping in and not hearing my alarm and missed out going to the raffle at Nike SM.

Waited 2 1/2 hours only to get a size 7.5 in the cloaks. Want these shoes so bad in a size 11.
I recognized a lot of people from the Concords release at Niketown Santa Monica. I had on my Bred XI's.

Needless to say I was pissed beyond belief at the debacle on NDC last night, but I got up at the crack of dawn this morning and headed down I-95 to Dade County and stood in line for about 50 minutes and got the holy grails. These shoes are amazing the color change has to be seen in person to appreciate it, straight flames. And while I was there what the hell might as well go ahead and get the Cements too
. I'm hoping that the same HOH has the Galaxys for sale next week too because that was about as seamless and well organized a big release as I've ever seen.
Anyway onto the pics:

copped the cloaks and IVs today and I can say Im more excited about UNDS the Kobe's more than the IVs. These are a thing of beauty.

Waited 1 hour for HOH to open then another 2 hour to get to the register. Tired as hell since waiting on NDC til the end and then not being able to sleep since I have to wait up to get to the mall by 6am and that's a 30 minutes drive. It was well worth it though.
I hate how they took all the people that were there for the IVs first. No Cements for me. I was just there to grab the Kobes and bounce. Doesn't it make sense to take care of the lesser stock items first? It was all good though I got my size after waiting so long.
The attention to detail on these are top notch. 3M swoosh was a good thought since the shoe is all dark colors. The paint looks fantastic. I like the three quarter clear sole with the small section of the black outsole. The texture on the heel cup is nice too. IMO I think the Cloaks beat out the ASG in terms of execution.

These pics are, by far, the best ones that come close to capturing how these look in person. I was expecting a tacky version of the V Inks, but these were just crazy up-close...Originally Posted by thapointguy

Long night last night trying to cop the Cloaks. Never got thru despite my endless efforts. Coppin kix shouldn't be that hard. I just hopped on the Big Bang pre order bus to alleviate the NSBS. Cant handle that again. Id rather pay more for the guaranteed pair. Still lookin for Cloaks size 11 for reasonable digits. Cant leave em alone.

^Haha! All my Vs have become my balling shoes except for the Miles Davis'...
But yes, these instantly jumped from a colorway I wasn't feeling to my favorite VIIs...

I camped out for the IV's today and got my 10. While I was there, I decided to get a 10.5 of the Invisible Cloaks because of the hype hereand apparently it was the last 10.5 in the store. It was a HOH, and I was only #27 in line, so I was confused. 99% of the people were there for the IV's anyway. Are these really limited?

Well ain't this about a ***. Looks like miraculously my order DID go through on NDC last night, but my the confirmation from Nike was sent to an old email address instead of the one that's on my updated Paypal. I'll have an extra pair of Cloaks size 13 that I don't need now.
