Nike Machomai shoes (Question)

[mishka80]

Hello all....I have a quick question.....why are the shoes from Title different than the shoes from the Nike site?

Title Boxing site:

http://store.titleboxing.com/nike-ma...shoes-mid.html



Nike Store:

http://store.nike.com/index.jsp?coun...32/pgid-186733

Notice how the Title machomai shoe has a black sole....but the Nike store one has a gumsole (yellowish color)

I also noticed that the one from the nike store has a zipper to cover the laces....while the ones from Title do not.

I've only seen Pacquiao wear the ones shown from that nike store site.... can anyone chime in on this?

Here's Manny wearing the ones from the nike site

1:47 in the video...

There are two types.....wtf lol (I'm guessing the shoes from title are an older version???)

[mishka80]

Also....since I've never gotten a solid answer.....can anyone tell me if these shoes run true to size? I am a size 9.5... should I stick with 9.5 or go for the 10.

Thanks. I'm lookin to get myself a birthday present...and i just wanna make sure these shoes are good... (I have never owned any pair of boxing shoes in my life)

Ya bro the Nike site ones are more sleek and from what I hear the Nike site ones are newer and better. My friend sent his title machomais back and got the Nike ones instead.

haha exactly what i was thinking....but i just wanted to make sure. I remember reading a review on this site (On the title machomais) and how the lacing system was ****.

Anyways, this SUCKS....i live in Canada...but says on the Nike site that they don't ship internationally.....how ****in ******ed.....I guess I Can send it to my bro and get him to ship it to me....what a hassle...

Try calling the Nike customer service and double check with them because I would think a big company like nike should be able to ship to a next door country for a few more bucks!

edit: just to play it safe.....i'll just send it to my Brother who resides in the U.S haha. Im just glad I didn't order the Machomais from Title......I was just about to put it on order..until I noticed Mannys shoes from last night.....im sure his old white/red shoes were the same shoes...

You know, I almost never open these kinda threads. But I am kinda glad I opened this one. I was just asked the other day to pick out some stuff I wanted for Christmas, and I got some custom trunks coming already...and they are red/white scheme and I do need new shoes come to think of it.

Now I know I ordered my last pr. of Nike's from the US via innerwebz, but it was a while ago, and was a gift also...so I guess they changed the policy?

I like those. Going to call them up tomorrow and see what is what and will let you know and if you get any better info. on the new models here in Canada...let me know here, and I'll do the same.

Thanks.
