What happened to the Knicks CW! Lakers have been on ebay.com for cheaper than retail but they dont look as nice as I expected.
I think I'm gonna pass on the AJ VI Laker CW and pick these up instead...
Same thing I was thinking to myself. The 16.5 have more life and pop to them. The Color placement is better and they are cheaper. Plus on top of that, its a team shoe so discount codes are a go and since they probably wont sell out, they will probably drop to $110 sooner or later like the rest.

If I were you I'd go Cool Gray this weekend since there is a 25% off sale. The Lakers don't release until the 8th so that gives you time.Originally Posted by 1arm1da
damn those cool greys are nice... tossing up between them and the lakers ones which can go with my new teams uniforms which are purple/gold

The Hornet colorway does have a patent leather toe box and heel. I have notified the appropriate personal to update our website with a newer picture. Unfortunately, I am not sure when this will happen, since the shoes will not be in stock in until early to the middle of February.

Oh and the Eastbay hornets pics have more than one quite major difference than the actual release. Can you find them?
Unfortunately, it appears we will not be getting the Knicks colorway in at this time. I do not have anymore information on this shoe.
Dang.
OK NT keep a look out for them
Product number #: 375387-041
This pic says they are Footaction bound I guess...
These with some black NBA socks. Well any 16.5 with NBA socks.
My liking for the 16.5 is crazy though, I always liked the 16/17 and when these first showed up I was, but with more colors and owning a pair has really catapulted my love for this shoe. I love the numbered line of Jays but being 100% real. This model is a top 5 for Jordan Brand shoe models for me.
1A.12
1B.11
3.8
4.16.5
5.13
Why can't JB do this more often? This is what made JB what it is today. Shoes that make peopleand get really excited over them.
Man why can't JB do this more often?

Purple thread on the tounge has changed from purple to aquaThe middle of the "XVII" heal area was changed from gloss black to flat blackAnd finally near the toebox, the color has changed to all white instead of including a black portion. Thats all i can find! I will keep a lookout starting in Febuary at my local FootAction and let you know what drops and when. I have only started to like the 16.5 releases. The black/reds are ok, but I dislike the use of leather on the side ( I never wear the straps on the XVI's) With the white/blacks/red and white/black/blue colors, I dislike the tinted mesh area on the lower sides that includes either red or blue behind the black. I just got a NBA Chirs Paul shirt (black/aqua) to go with my New Orleans 16.5s but I can not find a dang Black/Aqua Hornets fitted!!!
You know the pics of the white/gunmetal 16.5s are also wrong on the Eastbay site. Can you have them update those pics too? The actual shoes are nice, but not as nice as the ones in your website (there really isn't any copper on the shoes though the Eastbay pics make it look like they do). I was kinda disappointed when I got my pair from Eastbay. Thanks!Originally Posted by EastbayRep

Yeah I totally agree. I saw those in store and thought they were a different shoe at first than the ones online. Pretty disappointing.Originally Posted by si3n4

I really like the last two hats. The first of the last two looks great but I really need some black in it. As for the last hat, they dont have my size!!!
