Nike V-12 and Flexlite Question

[kovalchuk71 212]

Do the V-12 and Flexlite fit the same? I used to love the v-12 but havent worn them in a while. I have been wearing Flexlite 12's and am curious as I found v-12s for a heck of a deal. Any insight?

no

the heel of the Flexlites are wider than V-12's. I fit perfectly into V-12s and I can't fit into Flexlites if I wanted to.

The newest flexlite line will be coming out soon. it may be something to look into seeing as though I am not familiar witht he new fit. I will say Nikes have been great to me and I am really surprised by the product Nike has put forth. Two thumbs up.

They look good too. My LHS has a display model.

do they look like the current flexlite models?

[TBLfan 25]

pretty much, but the NBH logo looks soo much better than just the Swoosh. If a pic doesn't show up by this weekend I'll take one for you guys.

*edit* After looking at the catalogue posted by JR, it looks the exact same(as in the catalogue). So unless you want pics of anything specific just look at that(I believe my LHS had the 18).

I liked how it doesn't say "flexlite" anymore just "FL-XX" on the tendon guard, the whole skate looks more like a real skate instead of just looking like a nike knock-off skate.

*additional edit* odd, the Vapor XXXX's insole isn't the same as in the catalogue

One of them is 8090ish. Dont know which.

The Flexlite 18 in the catalog does not replace the flexlite 12...it's actually a step down, its an upgrade of the flexlite 10.

Is the forefoot of the V-12 as wide as the Flexlites?
