Nothing on Nike.com.
This sounds like another 'someone heard something at their local pro shop.' Like the @zapvor 'Fed switching to 95" racket thread'...
Nike had the release on their calendar but then they took it off. Did they not do that with the 287 as well? I'm checking back at 9am because I remember the 287s coming out at that time.

Do you actually like the shoes or are you just trying to fill up a collection?

too much orange...
maybe orange mid shank to match the nike swoosh on the shorts and polo
but the whole sole on green grass looks like the pic above - crabsticks on lettuce

No trophy? No RF?
Also TWE says out 6/29
They are also around 10-15 euros more than the regular vapors.

Shoe is officially out on Nike.com. I would hardly call it limited edition, it's just the regular shoe with an orange grass court sole.
I was expecting a trophy with a 7 on it and RF on the tongue at least. It retails for 140 USD.
The limited edition courtballistec is out as well.

Strange decisions
If nike wants to sell these as collectiable, they should make same design as fed's actual shoes (tongue, trophy etc)...
I don't know about condition in Europe but release Grass shoes in US????
What are they think?
Seems like nike tennis department does not know what people wants nowadays.

Hypebeasts have been mad thirsty as of late.
Still disappointed Nike didn't do more with these.

Someone selling them on the bay with actual photos and no special box with them (on the contrary to some other generic photos on the bay).
A pity

Nike always sends there PEs in regular boxes. Even Lebron, whose sigs have special boxes, gets his shoes in regular boxes.

well these arn't going to be worth that much cuz it marks fed's earliest exit from a grand slam since forever...

Agree 100%. Only collectors will want them, and the Fed fan won't want anything to do with them.

Color is Armory Navy.
Thanks...not sure I need another shoe with Navy on it...guess I'll pass on this one even though I like it. I wish it was a dark grey.

They're awfully boring and unlike the 287s, they have nothing special(except for grass sole). Good thing I got a great price on them.
