No very keen on the colour scheme. When will they be available?
-
Not the best, Just on looks. Adidas & Asics still far superior especially if they're a similar build/structure as previous models.

-
Anyone else thinking Gel Advance 2s on steroids?
-

A load more pics here - black/volt anyone?

Black spikes !?! No No No. Not a good choice.

Just remind me of those and that isn't a good thing.
-
They look really tidy in white.
Black? Leave that to the IPL. Nimby.
-
I actually liked the black ones..

Trust you to like them.
I think the white boots look okay. But wouldn't be my first choice of a shoe.
-
Not overly keen on these, design seems quite clunky. As for the black... a big no no for the cricket pitch! Think the asics this year look far better imo
-
I prefer Luna Jim.
I think both sets look terrible.
-
I think they are a million times better than the lumo orange monstrosities from last year. I'll be getting these when they hit these shores!

I prefer last years by miles compared to these. Not sure comparing spikes to moon boots really works....
-
Lunar is nike's cushioning system across their range so I'm expecting them to be very comfortable.
-
If you look at some of the liberace style of designs, I give you Puma and Asics my Lord, then the black Nikes look in context and quite calm!
However, though shalt not cross over the white lines at the HAC with those bad boys for fear of barrage of sledging a drunken Merv Hughes would applaud.
-
After looking at the photos for a while I have come to the conclusion that I am a fan of the white ones. I was undecided for sometime but I think they look really smart, a munch improved design to the flywire design of the last two years. Will 100% be purchasing these when thy come to the uk.
So anyone got anymore info on these and when they will be released etc..
-
I must be having an early midlife crisis as I reckon these look good and I've just bought the new puma evospeeds in go faster white/green
-
I really like those, look top top notch be interesting to see price points
-
The batting ones are the most comfortable looking footwear I've ever seen
-
Well i hope they have different inners as we had a lot of lads binning there Nike spikes half way through the season as they were made primarily of plastic and stunk to high heaven especially once they got wet!!!!!
-
I really like them.
This is all.
-
Anybody know when these come out in the UK?
-
Those soles look pretty bright on the tv at the mo!
-
I like them (not the black version i have to say) are these going to be on-sale in the UK?
-
These are only going to be sold through official Nike Retailers in India, as far as I can tell

couple of better pictures, god they look comfy!
-
Can I be honest.
I like Nike kit usually.
but I think these are minging.
if they had designed shoes like these, but with a little more support/toe protection I would be much happier...!!

Buzz, you know what I saw picture of your shoes few days ago and was praising the looks of them and all.
Now is it me but those new Nikes seem to have a thick sole? Not big fan of thick soles to be honest.
-
here is Sunil Narine in the black and Yellow ones. Expect to see Ricky Ponting in a pair this afternoon... game starts in just over an hour

So are these available from just India?
-
Not available in UK until 2014 according to Owzat on twitter
-
Nike are a (No Swearing Please) bunch of cock suckers.
lol

Of course they are. This is Nike India we are talking about after all. Will be using the same factories as Nike USA, so the quality will be great. but the design and marketing is all handled by India, hence the garish looks.
So are these available from just India?
I've been told I will see samples in August/Sept, (so expect reviews and opinions from everyone after the lords trade show) with stock available hopefully for Christmas.
-
Thanks Jake, I'd like to get some but need to know before our overseas players comes over in the next few weeks haha
-
If you get a pair, I will be one of the most jealous people in the world :D haha
-
how many pm's do we think Tushar has got asking if his family can source some in India for guys over here!

You can buy them online in India. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to get them delivered to the UK...
-
True
The only issue is import duty,agent handling charges and of course VAT >:(
Ends up being a bit expensive
-
UK spec is different to the ones i imported from India for personal use. The shoe is the same, but rather than a light blue and orange colour, they have opted for a deep red and navy which i actually prefer. Very cool.

Looks good - definetly leaning towards these babies rather than new balance
-
Jake are you taking pre-orders for these (assuming you are stocking them)

We are stocking them, and yes we are taking pre-orders. :)
I'll make a topic soon, in the meantime, pm me.
-
Do any of the Nikes come as indoor trainers or is it a case of going for half spikes and removing them.

There is a shoe with a turf sole yes. I didnt take a picture but will dig one out.

Yeah the UK version looks a lot nicer but still feel its a bit too ostentatious for a cricket boot...
