Stop it. The EP is just wrong compared to the OG of this colorway. They got it much closer on the reimagineds and fire reds and BCs. Not here, which is surprising and disappointing. These are BY FAR the worst of the newer OG colorway IIIs we’ve got going back to the FRs. Shame.
Easily, and I mean EASILY, my favorite LeBron shoe. Nike still had that 90s aesthetic working here but also a fresh early 2000s evolution of it. Other than the black/red 2s, and maybe the white:black patent POPs, it’s the only LBJ shoe I even care about.
Yeah, no idea what’s up with all the guys absolutely hating on this model on NT. It’s a clean design that’s far from unattractive, and it looks better than so many other Jumpman-branded models.
They were pretty easy to get in LA on RD. The prices got so crazy I ended up selling three pairs. Sorta wish I kept one extra pair but my worn pair is barely worn.
