Nike spike models

Unread postby WestonVaulter » Tue May 15, 2012 2:10 pm

Hey guys, I'm looking for some new spikes, preferably some nike pv 2's. I found some older ones, the green and silver ones on a website that has my size. I was just wondering if these are different from the red/black ones? and if the green/ silver ones differ from the new white and blue/yellow green ones? The silver and green ones are on sale for cheap, around $40, so it would be nice to get those, but if the new white/blue and yellow green ones are much better, then i'll spring for those, but I just wanted some advice before I buy! Thanks!

My daughter has both versions, and says they are essentially identical. She likes the older ones better, simply because they are more broken in (and they match her school's colors).
