There is no need to wear it in order to know that esthetically they look softer and less technical, that's all I'm saying. The midsole TPU lateral stabilizer on the vapor X is really sharp (aka good looking.)

They look clean and light. Look wise, I prefer the Vapor X as it is more technical and aggressive looking. Nike went soft on these. Also, the forefoot outsole is a long as the heel outsole. That's odd.

I think they look extremely cheap to make.

Bottom looks nice. I wish it had more ground contact for lateral stability. It does look fast though.

100% agree with you. Still, I admire the fact that nike went ahead and put this on the market. It shows me that the brand is not afraid of failing. That's amazing to me.

Not so sure about Mother Teresa...

This is a very interesting concept. Let's see how it sells. The lack of toe protection is questionable on a performance tennis shoe.

One of the best basketball shoes nike ever made. It was super popular back in the day, too.

Didn't they put the court logo on a Dunk, too?

That's a basketball shoe.

+1, with a special mention to the legends who built this sport to be as successful as it is nowadays.

Same here. When I think of Bjorn Borg for example, the only thing that comes to mind are the 11 GS and 5 consecutive Wimby titles. I have no idea who was the number 1 during those years.

Toe cap + heel cap + eyestay + logo = shoe.

Still, the ATP's points system is a scam. It's not showing the best tennis player in a year.

What if Nole wins all Slams and don't play any Master. Still not the best player that year?

ATP's points system is a scam. One can win all GS in a year and earn less points than another guy who wins all the Masters in the same year. What a joke.

Nike is a money machine first and foremost. When they make a product, they calculate the cost of making and marketing it (which is pretty high as nike involves a lot of people in anything they do.) For example, if they are not 100% sure to sell 40k (guessing) pairs of a shoe, they drop that...

Nike is smart. They see the demand and their cost of meeting that demand. If they don't make the money that they must make doing it, then that business doesn't get green light.

Yes, same amazing season when he tests twice for doping, great!

No more lateral midsole TPU support story?

Of course not, Did you see the size of his helmet when he finished his career, hahaha

+1.

I like your thinking.

Really cool. I wonder who owns it now. Back in the day they belonged to Benetton group, I think...

Not a fan of the big Swoosh on the toes. Never was, never will be.

Is Prince still in racquet business? That'd be really nice.

Lacoste crocodile is the OG of successful personal logo. And that was way before Roger, no?

Nole himself called it "his biggest sporting achievement." That's all I need to know, ha

Wow, I didn't notice till I read this: Sinner is very much look alike to Phil Knight, only better looking (it's the eyes, ha)
