Hoping for a restock of the ZITs in black wide width by the end of the month before my birthday coupon expires

Anyone’s else 270G NRGs doing this?? Frustrating as I love the look and feel but they are going back!! Just need to wait on re stock 270Gs in my size which seems like forever

Those NRGs will probably never restock

I know they won’t re stock talking about the other 270G. Either want the Black and White or the all white w/ blue heel. Is what I’m looking for

I'll add a few insights on the ZITs that I haven't seen here.

 

1) Insoles. While most people recommend removing the insoles before washing, ZIT insoles are glued in. It's about time for a wash, so I'll have to decide whether to take them out or not.

 

2) White coloration. Aside from the first day, the Flyknit part of the upper hasn't looked WHITE. The laces and plastic lace reinforcements and midsole are white-white, while the upper is yellow-white. Maybe this is the subtle difffernce between the White and Sail colors Nike offered in caps this year (when there were caps to be bought...). It's not jarring, or annoying, or detract from the look.  It just is.

 

3) WIDE vs Standard. I've worn 13W in adidas and rarely buy Nike in any shoes because they tend to run narrow for my foot. Yet I bought a Baseball Blue standard 13 because I liked the color and thought it would be the only chance for me to get ZIT this year. As availability kept changing, I picked up a 13 WIDE Black/Crimson.
 

They didn't feel too different, so I took a look:

 

The 13 standard and 13 WIDE have the exact same soles and mid-soles!!!!

 

 

 

So, I grabbed the measuring tape and it seems as if all they did for Wides was add a bit of extra upper (1/2/ inch at the widest part of the forefoot).  

 

 

Now, they are pretty comfortable, and they don't look like grandpa's saddle shoes. But they'll never be truly comfortable because the outer part of my forefoot is wider than the shoe chassis. At the end of a round, it can get uncomfortable as the outside bottom of my foot is on the ridge edge of the midsole. They've gotten much more comfortable as they've broken in and most times I don't notice. 

 

4) Waterproofness. So far, this seems just fine in the dew and wet grass, but an interesting thing is that the laces go right through the upper. so if you were to step in a puddle, it would flood right in through the holes and some little spots under the laces where they didn't add the plastic coating.

 

Finally, the spikes are fine, they provide good traction and are easily cleaned with a tee.  That said the entire sole is a harder plastic and it can be a bit slippery on wet asphalt/concrete.

 

I highlighted the section I have a question about, I am EXACTLY the same way with so many pairs of shoes, the outside of my feet hang over the edge of a lot of shoes and it was my concern with these shoes before I ordered them, and clearly as you pointed out the wide sizes barely do anything width wise. So I am now cautious with if I want these at all. Now comes the second part of my question, what shoes have you found that do fit your feet? I'm on the hunt, right now the best have been Codechaos which fit surprisingly wide for me.

What the hell are those 97s with the turf on them lol. Surely no one actually wore those and they were more of a collectors item? 

I wear mine all the time.

I wore them in downpours and was fine. No “flooding in”

Try true linkswear. Their shoes is designed to be wide in the toe.

Pretty cool looking new offering from Nike.  

[JMH1220]

Much discussion on this prior to your post 

[Jc0]

Hopefully if you bought the ZIT shield you don't have big ankles. The upper barely stretches so if you have big ankles it may not fit you. I think my ankles are normal sized and I was barely able to zip them up.

Same for me. They are snug and I do not have big ankles. 

[JMH1220]

I didn’t notice the zipper until I looked at all pics. I noticed on 270 but not ZIT. 

[JourdanM]

so at this point, safe to assume the 270 Ryder cups aren’t releasing in NDC in the us ?

I bought shoe stretchers on Amazon for $15-20. Used those for 2-3 days in my ZITs wides and they feel great. After the 3rd wear now I don't feel them being narrow at all, they feel like normal nike air max fit

They saved my life also as they worked perfectly on a pair of TW's that were a hair to tight.  Now I have more options as I can wear a 12, 12.5, or a 12W in Nike shoes.

Pretty cool hiking shoes

What website are these on? 

[Warrick]

Where are these blue ones?

[shaneyank]

Another member just described these as "hiking shoes". That's more accurate that you might think. The high-top collar with zippers is very snug and initially feels like a basketball or hiking shoe. The collar is so snug that I hope it breaks in soon. The upper is more rigid than the standard ZIT.

 

That said, they are very light and there is no doubt they are extremely waterproof. Comfort is excellent, with the exception of the collar. I suspect it just feels strange for a golf shoe and I'll break them in/get used to them.

 

Timing is good as I expect to be playing in the rain this weekend. Performance over looks is more important with this pair. I couldn't give a s**t about about style while playing in the rain 🙂

 

[BirdieBob]

My 13W fit perfectly.  The lace setup took me a bit but I pull the slack up and tuck it down under the side overlay and that seems to work...lol.

[Warrick]

Why did the wide version disappear?

I suppose it is possible, but after seeing the NRG Jordan last a while, and the RC ZIT still for sale, seems surprising unless the made like 2 pair of each size

[mci711]

These are white and black right? This says white/navy but I'm pretty sure that's wrong.  Didn't notice until after I ordered

That is the purpose of them though right is to be a rugged version that can stand up to nasty conditions.  Yes they look terrible if you were to wear them with shorts (which you shouldn't....EVER!!) but I think they look fantastic in your pics with your slacks on. I also like that they are white but you can still wear them in inclement weather as they will clean up easily and the part that would be susceptible to getting dirty would be covered up by your pants or waterproofs.  

 

I have the specialty boot from Footjoy and they look like hiking boots also but they are perfect for bad weather and are very comfortable and clean up so well.
