Are the laces shiny/iridescent gold to flat?

I don't see where the 50$ increase went...

But if I'm paying resellers price for cloaks and asg kicks, 200 seems cool I guess.

 

[thapointguy]

Laces remind me of the IVs.

 

[urn0tlike]

Unless they make elites really limited, they will go on sale real quick.

 

[bigbrandon]

After seeing more pics on marqueesole Id drop 200.

 

[never wear them]

Getting really tired of the 1 piece upper tho....


There's only so much you can do....



If it continues with the 8s... I'll be getting bored of the line quick. And I'm getting there

Do you guys think that the poison dart frog pattern is to the 7 as gradient was to the 6? Are we about to see 20 poison dart frog colorways? I hope not.

 

[thapointguy]

I think there is one more cw(3 total) of the PDF, red based I think. IMO Nike wasted two colorways on the PDF, I appreciate something different for everybody but I'm not a fan of camo and PDF prints.

 

[blacklion23]

I was expecting more from the Elites, still a decent shoe though. The PDF Lakers look decent. Need to see in person to judge.

 

[cbfpunch]

i'm down with the elite!

I have a feeling bout 6 different cw's will drop via the "Poison Dart Frog" model 

 , hopefully they just do 3 cw's and move on to the next .
The Elites look #DOPE !!  Raised scales, carbon fiber heel cup with full length Zoom Air unit has me thinking it might be one comfy shoe in the end. 

 

[downyboy]

elites look like the VIs on a retooled midsole...what a joke.

Good looks.

Adding pics of elites before the hype

 

[limitless]

I think im done with the kobe VIIs...Until the GRs hit the outlets...

Unless the PDFs have GITD uppers i might have to reconsider.

Heres what I picked up so far




 ...if it makes you feel better, you can believe they are fake.

 

[kb24strikesagain]

Those Bruce Lee's would look good if they weren't fakes.

 

[Kobekobe]

^ looks like you have a few pairs of fakes..

Not fakes my friend...Custom NikeIDs and a pair of custom painted midsole cheetahs...

  

 

[therealestwun]

The details on the Elites look cool with the scales popping out, but the main flaw is they need more colors on those sneaks to make them more detailed, eye catching.

[carbonsilver]

[oreomamba21]

Elites are SICK but I don't see the $60 mark up.
