Definitely getting the black/white… Once I see your performance review, that is haha. They look the business. Hope they perform as well as they look like they will!
..And of course once/if they drop.
What do you think about the usage of flywire in these shoes? Do you think that it will work?
Yes, the Flywire definitely “works”! I had a huge grin while I was tightening the Flywire eyelets. You can really feel it hugging around your foot. I did put quotes around “works” because I have yet to play with them on court, but this seems as an indication it would.
love the red/black combo, although the blue/black is nice for a change.
I’m waiting for that Knicks home cw I saw awhile back. Blue upper with white toecap, sidewalls, & midsole with orange hits throughout.
Definetly that Carolina blue one!
Can’t wait for your M9 review! Do you think these play low to the ground just by the way it looks? I’m also a guard like you and like my kicks to be low to the ground for a good court feel. But i really like the way these M9’s look & the cw’s are dope! Thanks!
These are more of a forward shoe if I must say. They probably won’t play that low but will have great fit, traction, and ridiculous cushion.
the red melo m9 is dope, i ‘ll probably buy it, after your performance review
I have been waiting for these shoes for a couple months now. Definitely gonna pick up the red and black color way.
I love the Game Royal/White-Black-Team Orange but i just got the hyperdunk 2012for chrstmas an wont be able to get another pair of hoop shoes for awile
Is it just me or is the red and black colorway the only one that doesn’t have a glossy toe cap…if so honestly all the melo m9 would have looked better without the glossy part an instead change it to a matte toe cap which would have made it look better and newer longer
If the rubber isn’t really soft and if cushion is good I’ll get 2/3 pairs can’t wait
i tried on the Xmas version at HOH La jolla and they felt NICE, I was a hater when i First saw these but since i picked up the Lebron 10 and and enjoying the hell out of the zoom bag i had to give these a shot since it has a huge heel zoom unit, kind of reminds me of the wanna be Glove model NiKE Zoom Flight club that came out a few years back that Iguadala was rockin. The xmass model is wrapped in 3M. i just picked them up on ebay Nick cw for 100 so i cant wait – but why do they only have white soles?!
I’m gonna end up with a black/red pair if they drop here. If not, it’s a toss-up on black/orange or the black/blue.
personally not a fan of patent leather toes. it’s like a styling cop out imo. but they don’t look bad. If I was going to play in one (cuz who would just wear this lol) it’d definitely be the red color way
I really like the red ones but their pricey is their any way I could get them cheaper?? Plz respond I’m also looking at the KD V blue/orange colorway I’m size 7y
I like the heel tab, a feature that should be standard on every shoe! Hate that on the soles are white. I guess it all started with the AJ XII Playoffs?
