    Damn looks like I ended up getting a great deal on my elite maestris then! Got em a month before release too lol. Only thing is I'm sure the elite series is gonna come in a shoe box made of gold or something lol.

    what are they going to do after? Are they going to continue the use of carbon fiber in regular releases? Im sure that technology will become old, just like ipods and stuff. so it will become less expensive in maybe 3 or 4 years right?

    Just got my Nike ID Vapor VI today. I got them all white with a black swoosh. Just letting you know that the base color does not turn out white. It looks very silver. So I ended up getting Silver/White/Black. It does not look as good as all white. Will post pics if you guys want.

    so i have decided that i will invest in some superflies for collection purposes. but im trying to figure out if i should get these silver/orange elite superflies, or will there be a world cup champion edition as well. i still kick myself for not getting the italy vapor IIIs when i had the chance. So does anyone know if nike is planning on releasing world cup champion colors?

    I have looked through for a while and i still can't find any information on how many or how long Elites will be out on the market. Would they be really limited in number so hard to get? I know even after some time price won't go down much cause it is one of those limited editions. And how are you supposed to figure out your size? I don't think they will send some Elites to local or big athletic stores like Dick's sporting goods to sell them? Do anybody know where it's gonna be available according to past limited editions? Thanks

    They will be gone by the end of the World Cup, Nike have a strategy to make these exclusively for the WC and want to transition with new updated versions for the start of the PremierLeague/La Liga/Serie A 10/11 season. My recommendation is to get them if you have the opportunity to!

    the W.C. elites will only be available to Nike's Top accounts. PSD, Eurosport, Angelo's soccer corner to name a few. Anyone with a Nike Boot Room as well.

    to be fair to nike, that base color is listed as "metallic platinum"
    whereas the secondary color is listed as "white"

    Actually, Superfly II may be the fastest break in I experienced in cleats... I had no blisters, no pain, no nothing... And imo they are comfy.
    Btw, I'm actually liking a lot these Superfly II Elite... I may also get them, then I would have 2 pairs to train and play games. If I don't get cut..

    Someone else posted pics of their ID VIs without the lace cover. To be honest i thought the ones with the lace cover looked better. The others looked like the talaria version.

    I have seen nothing but the metallic platinum as the base color for NikeiD Vapor VIs. It's a wonder to me how Nike seem to not use NikeiD orders to see what kind of colors the market is looking for, since people are willing to pay extra to get a certain color, and use those in their colorways released to the public. Almost as if they are doing it backwards, instead of making nice simple colorways that everyone would buy available to the public and having outrageous colorway possibilities on NikeiD so that those paying more actually can stand out.

    On another note, I am planning on buying the ELITE Superfly II from nikestore.com when they are released as I have vouchers saved up and they would be at almost no cost to me. I wear an 8.5 in Superfly I and they fit perfectly, so perfect that they are my favorite boot ever. Do I still buy a size 8.5 for the Superfly II or should I go a half size up or down? Anyone with the Superfly II already can you help me out? Also, does anyone think the ELITE series will have the sizing change that the SL did (needing to buy a half size smaller than what you wore in a regular Vapor IV)

    "since people are willing to pay extra to get a certain color"


    Thats your answer for why they keep things the way they are. I am absolutely positive they keep track on who orders what combo's on nike ID.

    @ misterbroom: superflys 1&2 run the same size. As for the elite series I ordered my maestris half a size down and they fit me perfectly. But my regular maestris were a bit roomy so I think they run true to size.

    Does anyone else who have Superflies II have kind of an air pushing out sound whenever you step down on them? Whenever I take a step and the front of my foot touches down, it sounds like there's air being pushed out somewhere. I was just curious if anybody else gets this.
