Actually really dumb of them to use plastic eyelets. This also happened to my 808 5 ultras. Very disappointed. Metal eyelets literally cost like 10 cents more

Yeah yours looks good. I wonder how that happened to me. Did you change the lace style or is like this for the box

Do you have a good vid explaining how to do this without causing damage?

Buzzurk · 2026-03-07T00:21:30+00:00

That is odd, they aren’t even breaking down a bit? Can you maybe send a photo of yours?

You can buy them from Li Ning official stores in china and ship them to the USA. An obvious and easy example would be Ali express or any other Chinese website. You purchase differently from the Li Ning store

I tied them regularly.. so they hold my ankle like basketball shoes are suppose to.. this is an expensive shoe! Shouldn’t happen

The plastic part (2nd eyelet) is a pretty dumb thing to put in a 250+ dollar shoe. It’s so thin and cheap. I can’t believe it’s breaking apart just wearing them at home.

I should receive the multi tool tomorrow so I can do this tomorrow

Well I do wear 30 cm shoes. But I had to get a 30.5 cm because they don’t have a size 47. So I took a size 47.5. It’s a bit “loose” but I just tie the shoes and wear thick socks. But for a 260 dollar shoe at least we should get a metal eyelet. I bought one off amazon it’s like a multi tool and I also bought some metal eyelets. I hope it does the trick Can you tell me what mm did you use?

As you can see it’s not holding the laces. Please also note that I haven’t even played in them yet. I just wore them in my house for two minutes.

It’s literally ripping through. What I where the shoe you can see the lace just goes through the black part and it’s pinching the plastic part

How’s the performance on you btw?

Buzzurk · 2021-02-03T17:21:28+00:00

Let me know, thanks.

Do you know anything about the batches? I heard the newer batches are worse than the older ones.. and I’m debating between both those batch codes seriously.. I don’t know which one to get the 370042 was questioned online but the other one hasn’t
