Never played in Lebrons, do they feel unstable or are these tapered enough in the forefoot to feel low to the ground and stable? I remember trying on Lebron 8s and felt like I was gonna tip over.
I really don’t see how or why people are paying anywhere over 600 for these. They’re black and white sneakers. I have to agree with another comment about people being turned off to the high prices. At the end of the day, market will settle where people are willing to spend.
