exactamundo....

but they look nice and simple....just doesnt fit all the "happenings" of a lebron sig imo.....i know its a fill package with flywire, max air andwhatever else, but design wise looks uninspired for a lbj shoe

I could see the NBA upping measurements but reducing them?

What would they stand to gain?

I don't like the design, and I'll need to see men's size and different colorways. But it's def a step back.
Thanks for posting pics.

Well, he's 6'9 270 lbs,

6'8'' 250 lbs... nice exaggeration

NBA analysts have been saying he's at 270 now, they don't update his weight during the season.

 

[cadillacflow]

Not bad.

I like it...its plain, but looks like a real good shoe to ball in...Nike is really going crazy with this Flywire stuff huh?...let's see if these actuallyrelease looking like this

From what I understand, its to play a certain position on the court. KG is said to be about 7'1" but is listed at 6'11" sodoesn't get played at the 5. I'm guessing it's the same for LBJ, so gets to plays the 3, not 4. As for the shoes, I'll reserve judgment until anon-GS picture with better color blocking surfaces.

In an interview (I believe with Magic) he was asked what he weighed and he laughed and said 250+. Earlier in the year he was weighed at 274 lbs. So he may have dropped some weight through the season but he is nowhere near 250.

I skipped the 5, 6, and it looks like I will be skipping the 7 also

 

[h-n-t-w-m-n]

Well......I guess the IV was the only innovative shoe. Some of the rest may feel good but they certainly lack in aesthetics.

Sigh....Zoom Power....what could've been. It actually looks like a kick down of the Zoom Power (Flightposite>>>Jamgasmic).

 

[sim0nsayz]

got excited about $100 retail only to realize thats the retail is for GS..BOO $160.

 

[bwc1139]

ill wait to decide when I see mens size in a different colorway.

It doesnt have to be, again the VI's are light, so why cant these be?

 

[bkazk]

Looks like every other Nike shoe released in the past three years. Way to open up the LeBron to the public, Nike.

probably. it wouldn't be the first time. kids shoes often don't feature the same tech as men's.


jordan 20, for example, only sz 7.5 and up have IPS, 7 and below have flat bottoms with i'm assuming airsoles


anyone have a pic of bron standing beside tim duncan? they're about the same height.. if anything, bron might be a bit taller.

 

[f3djam]

i like the visible air

 

[blco02]

Alphaproject designed these.

 

[sole investigator]

where the lebron logo?


You make a good point.

 

[mattyg13]

Looks kinda like bb's mixed with powermax. Don't really look like a sig shoe, but as a big guy I'd certainly like to play in these.

 

[darthska]

I don't believe for a second that's what LeBron will be wearing for the majority of next season.

 

[zero 0123]

Im liking the flywire!
