What do we think? I quite like them.

Wow! 2016 gear before 2015 season has started? That must be a first?

I have no idea why, but it isn't unusual for shoe brands. New Balance showed the CK10AB (a 2015 shoe) at the trade show in 2013 to launch 2014 ranges. It was on the feet on some pros in the 2014 UK Summer but has only just come into stock with retailers.

Title says 2016. Bravo Instagram says 2015.

Op spelling mistake?

I think it is safe to assume these are either one offs, or prototypes for 2016.

Barring last minute changes that i am as yet unaware of, the 2015 ones are definitely the Lunar Dominate and Accelerate we had last year, but in the red colourway. They are not in stock yet so maybe there has been a change...

On a side note, i wish NB were doing these in blue.

Whats the obsession with bright red this year?

why do cricket shoes have to be so colourful these days?
I much prefer a plainer white shoe.

if only Nike would bring out a cricket shoe like these everyone would be happy...

I've never been a big wrap for Nike cricket gear, a mate I used to play cricket with is a sales rep for Nike, so he had all their kit including bats and sifts, but their shoes he tried to get me wearing, but they felt really heavy, this is about 5-6 years ago, so things have probably changed since.

PS: Buzz if they did a cricket shoes like those, I'd be up for them!

Friend of mine has the prototypes, and they really are comfy!

Mine wasn't a spelling mistake as the Red and white Lunar Dominate and Accelerate are the 2015. Seems like Nike release their spikes to the Indian market first, as seen in previous years IPL. Presume we will see these at this years.

A couple of the Sri Lankans were sporting these in odi against nz

It would be nice for some retro New Balance all white with just a red N i think or a pair of all white Nike with just a tick no colour at all

Exactly what I thought. 2015 start is still 3 months away....
