Nike Clay shoes

[Area 420]

I've been on the hunt for some Nike clay shoes (preferably courtballistec, vapor or breathe cage or even barricade) and have had zero luck. I've seen a few internationally but the stores don't ship to the U.S. I know that there will be a summer release of the B6 w/ clay sole. Has anybody had success in getting their hands on any of these and how please!

Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't the outsole for the 2K10 Breathe Cage ideal for clay? All herringbone tread pattern?

Have you seen Vapor with clay outsole?
Or 2k10 with clay outsole?

LINK? Thanks

Vapor with clay outsole is the V6 I think ...
and 2K10 has a clay outsole.

I got a pair of Vapor V's with the clay sole off of the bay

@TMCW140
Yeah I've seen pics of your pair and those are fresh, that's exactly what I'm looking for. They're just next to impossible to find now. I've used the 2k10 on clay and i want to feel the difference between the FULL herringbone tread and the regular tread. I've also heard that clay soles have deeper groves, as the 2k10 was a little shallow

I've played on red clay with the 2k10's and they're OK.
But I just got my hands on a pair of clay Oscillates that I can't wait to test.

There's usually a CB iteration with a clay sole in Europe around Spring Time, although TW US had a Vapor Clay version a few seasons ago.

I stocked up on air Oscillates Clay, they re-surface from time to time on the main auction site.

I play with the 2K10 on hard court, but this particular herringbone pattern is not really suitable for Clay courts.

You need much deeper grooves, and more importantly, wrap-around herringbone to control your slides. The deeper grooves channel the dirt and then accumulates by the side of your shoes which eventually slows down the slide.

If you're not dead-set on Nikes, asics and Yonex also have very good Clay shoes, so does adidas in fact.

Nike CB 3.3 with a clay sole (sorry for the massive picture)

 

[innoVAShaun]

I bought my clay white with grey CB2.3s from TWE. I know a UK seller on the big auction site still has the white with orange 2.3s in the clay sole.

@innoVAShaun
Does it happen to be a size 11? Would you mind giving me his/her used ID? I'd really appreciate the lead

Yeah that 3.3 clay looks awesome, I've got that exact shoe in the normal hardcourt sole and Its really just a great shoe. But they don't stock it at TWE and they're prolly my best bet for international clay shoes.

I was able to get my hands on a NEW U.S. Size 12.0 Nike Air Court Ballistec 3.3 Bk/Yellow clay shoes. The outsole is Herringbone, and I don't think these are sold online, it was made for a professional. Message me if you are interested.

 

[got spin?]

The breathe shoes work well for clay, If you only buy from TW, I usually buy my clay shoes from **** or an international site.

I thought only the grey white version was clay never seen an orange clay version?

 

[innoVAShaun]

Here in Europe, usually a Spring colorway is released with a clay sole.

You mean id it? I saw the samples at niketown in nyc, its not a regular herrington bone pattern its similar to the CB 3.3s pattern

[innoVAShaun]

Were they the clay soled 2k11s?

 

[BallistecMissile]

Is there actually some place where you can get CB 3.3's in a clay outsole? If so any suggestions where I should start looking? Been looking into this for a while and I haven't come up with anything.

They're on sale too.

 

[melaniev]

I can recommend them! I also have the 3.3 with a normal outsole. But when I played on my new 3.3 clay outsole this weekend, it was much better then I'm used too.
