So it's been a really long time since really being attached to the LeBrons. Followed the LeBrons since the 1st one, didn't really start buying them 'til the 6 to the 12th one with the exception of owning a pair of the 4s and the 5s in high school... The LeBron 10 was my favorite, and then it just went downhill from there. The 11s were uncomfortably tight to wear for basketball, the 12s were just stiff as ****, I can't even remember the 13s, and the 14s was a nice-but-not-nice-enough comeback. The 15s, however... it's something else. These truly should've been the LeBron 11s, but of course... the needs may have been different for those other years for LeBron himself (or so we think).
I've been waiting for some news about the black/gold colorway, and saw it pop up on my NikePlus Member Unlocks page, and I just had to jump on it with the next-day shipping.
Sidenote: These were taken with the Pixel 2 XL. Apologies to those who hate the Portrait mode stuff. I know, it's not perfect, but I just like the effect. I just wish I still had my DSLR to take pictures with real depth of field.
This was when the sun was still out. The gold stardust accents are kinda hidden here.
This one is with the lamp light on. The gold stardust accents pop!
No speckling on the air bag units. The Zoom and Max units inside are black. The front and rear pull tabs are tumbled leather.
