Only have one pair of hyper elites, but they've worked very well for me
What's good with Nike Elite Basketbal Crew socks? (SOCKS FTW!)

Hyper elites tend to not stay up for me also. That doesn't seem to be an issue with regular elites for me.
Also, I got a pair of the quarter hyper elites and the tab at the front is kinda annoying.

yeah the he has a different material to give it a better compression but that's one of the down sides. the he stays in place for me..no problems. i like it because it's lighter/breathability and a better compression but, personally, I think they thinned out the bottom a little too much. for cushion, I prefer the reg elites.
if they could only take the HE top and put the reg elite bottom.

USA elites are pretty nice... not sure that I'd get a ton of wear of them though. Would rather spend a VIP coupon on a diff pair

That's exactly how I am
I'll never wear my elites or adidas socks unless it's on the court, my nba ones get casual play tho

That's crazy it wasn't that hard to get Blue ones , the Red and white were the hardest for me to find.. I think I bought the new elites on an impulse buy .. oh well

Why do they fit so small? I need a XL and that size is impossible to find in any colors except the standard blk white.Anyone have a assist on where to find colors? Specifically looking for a red and gold or yellow. THANKS

I think they fit the same, its thicker and ive never had any of my elite socks "shrink". In any case, they hold up a lot better after washes than regular elites.

I went to my local FNL today and saw that they had these: http://www.finishline.com/store/catalog/product.jsp?productId=prod758197
Return of the high quarter?

Nice! I like the recent hyper elite high quarters but that front tab kinda looks tacky with some shoes IMO.

Hate the tab.
And it's kinda nice to see those high quarters. I still have mine from a couple years ago at Marshalls and TJ Maxx. Might get a couple of the new colors.

Finishline has some pretty good color options. I used a footlocker reward on just a black pair that I got about a week ago. Nice to have the quarters without the front tab
