However - I am in NO WAY saying Nike wouldn’t put a full zoom in there and leave us out.

That looks like a bottom loaded zoom bag
Cameron Boozer's pair has the orange showing on bottom too. I'm more inclined to believe it's an application covering the stitching between the outsole and frame than a zoom bag.

Not really related to this shoe but, that dude hates on literally everything and then goes off on anyone that disagrees with him.

This could be a thing too just extra reinforcement for Lebrons personal pairs. Eventually we will find out whats going on with his PEs

Alright fellas, here they are. First off, these things are PLUSH! Great weight to them, they're honestly incredible. Now that being said, they are also LOOOONG. I'm 6 feet tall 190 and I got a Large. As you can probably tell there is a lot of extra length at the bottom. If I were to wear these with shoes the bottoms would be toast on the first wear. They're very baggy which is cool but very long. I just processed an exchange for a size medium. I would strongly suggest considering the length before you buy these and trying them on if possible to get the right size. If you go too big you WILL destroy the bottoms because you'll be walking all over them. The quality is absolutely insane, just too long. Hope this can help️
What is the color like in person on these. Sites say black but they look more like a dark grey in pics

That's kind of what it is, but I suppose that's the material. They're not a deep black by any stretch. Jacket is on the way btw

They’re almost like a faded black/dark grey. My DSG has had them for a couple months now. Kept checking to see if they’d ever put them on sale lol

This is for the most part non-lebron related, but it bares repeating since people are always doing this overanalytical weight comparison nonsense with lebrons. Just saw a sneaker review of the book 2 rising and phoenix colorways. He strongly suggested going with the Phoenix colorway for hooping because it was 40 grams lighter than the rising. There are 1.3 ounces in 40 grams. For comparison, there are 12 ounces in a full bottle of water. What are we doing here? If one ounce of weight is effecting your game then you might want to ask yourself if you need to be trying to hoop in the first place. I hate sneaker reviewers

It does make a slight difference at least based on feel if you’re playing high level basketball some smaller guards, especially if you’re guarding really quick players. In high school I always wore LeBrons, but once I got to college and had to guard guys who were extremely quick, I felt like I was stuck in the mid wearing slightly bulkier shoes and switched to wearing PGs and dames since they were lighter and still had cushion. It may not have actually made a difference, but it sure felt like it. Also as someone who is always moving and shoots a lot of deep shots off the move, I feel like I do find myself missing short more later in games when wearing heavier shoes. I’m pretty sure the main reason people suggest the phoenix colorway of the books over the rising is that the rising colorway has an extremely stiff material

While I understand what you're saying, I will never be convinced that anyone would notice 1 oz. of difference. I played PG back in my day and these were our team shoes. I still got good numbers and these 2 weighed as much as a used sedan

I’m not saying you can’t play in anything heavier, but back then almost every shoe was heavier so everyone was wearing those. Technology has evolved and we can make shoes with good support, cushion at lighter weights now. If you play/watch high level basketball(college/pro/nba) you’ll notice 95% of guards and most of the other players on the court as well, wear much lighter shoes. Theres a reason that the only LeBron shoe that was widely worn in the last couple years was the 20. I personally think the 23 is a better all around performer than the 20, but when you are playing against elite athletes, you don’t want anything weighing you down. When playing pickup or in men’s league you usually aren’t playing as high level of athletes so wearing a heavier shoes instead of really gonna hurt you. Most of reviewers/players I see that don’t care about weight are guys that don’t play quick or are older. Obviously a shoe’s height off the ground and heel to toe transition can effect this feeling as well, making the shoe feel clunky so weight isn’t the only determining factor when making your feet feel heavy. Depending on how you play though, I can see why it matters to some players and doesn’t to othersWhile I understand what you're saying, I will never be convinced that anyone would notice 1 oz. of difference.

Brother, you’re not feeling 1 oz difference. If your are? 
Time for you to hit legs twice a week if that’s the case.
