Legit. That's the Flyprint Elite, try to keep up.
yeah, but is it released or is there another model coming out this year?
New colorway of the current 4% launching April 9. 5%, new upper with bigger stack (same as current VF Elite) coming later this year. The Flyprint was a very limited release in Japan only and you had to prove to be a sub 3 hour marathoner to even purchase them.
For real? sub 3 only - thought that was a joke :)
Nope, no joke.

It was to keep all the "collectors" from buying them, so only real runners (hobby joggers) :) could buy them.

Later, meaning October-ish?

Not much of a fan if you don't think that looks any different.
*heel striker (unless you like to beat up doctors)

Which colorway will the new 4% be?
White grey I think
I've been watching this guy try to sell these at hyper inflated prices for almost a year. Glad to see Nike do as they did with the grape flyprints to avoid shoe hoarders such as this person.
They dropped on rw and snagged a pair with discount for 210. Grey upper with speckling in foam area

Didn't they launch a new colorway last week? White metallic. This makes me doubt your other info.
I decided to try sizing down on my next pair.
I got the white...its a nice look aside from the Chinese text instead of English next to the 4% writing on the midsole

The white metallic is the "ekiden" colorway that was for Japan only. They decided to sell them in the US for some reason. Still one more colorway coming this spring before the 5%. Don't ever doubt me :)

When Jamin's testicles do.

so which colorway is it? not liking the blue ones at all, the ekiden looks great but not on sale in Europe apparently :(
Well at least I have found the orange version of the 4% again for its normal price:
Unfortunately this equals 10 and I need 9,5...
Not willing to pay 300 bucks, so maybe rather take the blue or hope that Kipchoges version gets sold for 250 bucks in my size again.
Looks like that shoe can turn a water buffalo into a Kentucky hellhound.
