I hope Nike will release purple AZG that Lebron wore it from off-court.![]()
How do the SVSM fit? TTS?
Nice. What would be especially dope: the same color-blocking as the OG white/blacks but with the black mesh changed to true Lakers gold (not this crap yellow color the recent uniforms are) and the red hits to real Forum Blue (Lakers purple). Would resemble D Fish’s old PE Uptempos with that same scheme.
You're sleeping on the 7's and 9's.Welp, I finally bit the bullet and purchased the white/blacks via Stock X. This is a strange feeling, as I am not and have never been a LeBron fan. I've never owned one pair of LeBron shoes. But the white/black Generations have always been a sick shoe to me ever since the original release--which I skipped because I didn't like all the hype he came into the league with
At this point, though, I don't really care about these being LeBron's shoe, I just think the design and color blocking in particular is bad ***. So I decided to say eff it and grab them, I'm looking forward to their arrival. The LeBron II should definitely be retroed as well, I likewise always thought that shoe (well, the black/red version, anyway) was amazing. To me, the Zoom Generations and the IIs are the only LeBrons worth a **** LOL

The 9s don't do anything for me but you have a point about the 7s, at least some of them. I've said in the past: that shoe always reminds me of the original Uptempo silhouettes. LeBron or no LeBron, it looks like a shoe Nike could have come out with as a modern extension of that line. The POPs in particular, if they weren't a LeBron shoe (and preferably if they didn't have that lion head on the medial side) I would have grabbed those at the time. Of course, a big part of their appeal is the obvious Jordan XI vibe.

Absolutely loved my pair.
Unfortunately they bite the dust a few years back.
They released a much crappier version of them in the Lebron Witness:The other LeBron shoe I always thought Nike should have released is the scrapped LeBron 6 Power Max. I would have liked to see them rework that carbon heel clip a bit, but even as it was, that shoe was pretty sick. I forget if there was ever an explanation given as to why that shoe was binned, but it was only about 1,000 times better than the actual 6 that released looking like some sort of AF1 monstrosity.
