Hang on, does your design supposedly have a white fit frame? (the plastic support strip around the shoe above the sole right?).

Man, mine will look terrible in that case. Had I known it was nothing like the white of the midsole I'd have chosen another colour.

[Highway Gambler]

Yea, supposed to be white. Turns out it's fairly translucent.

What color is your upper Bobby?

[Tyler91]

Good info. It will be interesting to see as more people post pics.

I'll have my black/blue pair next week. Thinking about a cool grey/red pair now.......

My intent with the foot frame was to extend the white of the midsole into the upper, and I especially wanted to mask the "V9" short iD. I wanted that to be a subtle thing, not so prominent. Oh well. However, I do enjoy what the off-white tone does for the overall design.

Interesting to see live pics because of these datails... knowing how the final version is really helps, before making an order !
Now we know the foot frame will look grey over a black or grey upper !

As for the subtle "V9" logo, I thought the same: I would choose a white logo on white frame, or black logo on black frame : I know it's on, but nobody can really see it.... But I won't do the white/white thing now I know it will be too visible, thanks to you.

Grey upper also, white fit frame/midsole. Blue trim/outersol.

I wont be overly impressed by the looks of it but, it could be exaggerated by the photography. Might look fine on the feet.

You can always return them to a nike outlet for a full refund.

Nice effort indeed.

Thanks Guys. For some reason my iphone makes the laces and mesh look purple. They are true grey when you see them in person. I noticed that the lining on the iD's doesn't have the swiss flag detail that the retail ones have.

[Fedfer]

Really nice shoes, Airwolf. So the vent are the grey ones, and not the black/white fading ones , if I understood correctly .

[Airwolf]

Sorry for the confusion. The vent is the black to white fade. I was referring to the mesh in the toe box.

Hey man, I understand that you (bossauce) like to respond to things and etc.. But I don't think it's necessary to post 15-20 times a day with 3 word responses(such as I don't like, cool shoe, how is it) and respond in almost every thread. It kind of gets annoying when I log on to the forum and go here and see that your username is plastered on who recently posted. If your going to post with such simple answers, it would be better to tone down how much you post.

Just my suggestion and I'm sure many posters would agree with me.

[aznhippos]

how many hours do you get out of the v9?

[bambi]

I have a mixed feeling about this colorway.....

yes/no?

Really love them !!!
classy and detailed at the same times.
Would you mind posting a picture of the other side of the shoe so I can see the plastic "vents" ? As you chose a faded black>white, I want to see how it looks with a black + white plastic.
Thanks

I agree with you on this one, is it just a way to up post counts? Back on topic, those Mac Attack V9s Airwolf posted look superb. I wouldnt mind a pair of those bad boys.
