I know they've got the new nike+ but I still just threw up in my mouth after seeing that. And they're still raising the price on the regular X for no other reason than they can.

Forget the X+, (as ludicrous as that is) there's no way I'm dropping $180 on regular LeBrons.
 
Is there an official release date for Europe on the McFly 9's???

I got offered a pair from a link in Netherlands for $700 lol needless to say I declined


Ended up working a deal for $470 shipped.

How it feel???

Verry happy!

crazy that a $250 shoe has the whole side "carbon fiber" plate cracked in half after a test wear...?

Lebron doesn't have to worry how the shoes will look after he plays in them. He probably uses a new pair every game, and he doesn't have to pay 250+tax for each pair.
It is a known fact that Nike's marquee athletes get a NEW pair of sneakers every game. Their sneakers are of significantly better quality than our GR shoes too.

KD doesn't wear a new pair every game

This is VERY TRUE...
 
I don't know if this has already been answered or not but did the elites release overseas already? Because a lot of people from across the pond sure do seem to have a pair already.

I'm sure u CAN'T wear this cw all the time, should I just wait for the Jordan playoff 12's a shoe that can be worn more casually and save some coin at the same time?
The Chinas are an overall better shoes, but I guess it would be best to get the XII's to avoid having to cop them at resale prices later. The Chinas are already at resales prices, so there shouldn't really be a rush to buy them.
 
First off, $250 for a Nike.

But possibly $315.....

These prices will not stop the hypebeasts. Once Franalations, Sneek Geekz, or Stickie gets a pair, the sheep will follow.

So true

lol im sorry but thats where i draw the line. I understand that there will be tech included in the shoe, but i dont need that.
But am i going to sit here and cry about? NO, because there is nothing we can do except for not buy the shoes. Nike will do what they want, no matter what.

If they look good i'll buy the 180 lebron 10s.. if not then i'll pass.

. Stayed true to size and wow possibly the comfiest shoe I've ever bought. After reading they had sold out on NDC twitter I was gonna go for the Son of Mars purp joints but then this AM saw FSRs everywhere so headed to house of hoops and robocopped with the quickness. They had some SLH on display and I woulda copped those but all they had were 8-9.5
ohwell.gif
. the minty green on the easters is too clean. Now I'm wondering why I haven't seen this done yet so I said let me try this out.

 What a splash of color can do for some kicks. Sucks lows don't come w/2 pairs of laces. With all the SB Elite hype I was like Easters have almost the same colors so let me see how this turns out. Surprisingly laces @ HoH were exact match for Lebron SB laces although like most of y'all, I wish Lebron laces were sold seperately. I personally like them with the fuchsia laces over the grey ones.

I hate Hate HATE lace swaps.....but this one is well done.

Never clicked to me how close the color is to the SB IX

Haha thanks man. Yeah When I saw the SB IXs and then the Easters I was like wait, why not try it?  And then when I saw the laces I was like bingo! Also I got to use the $10 VIP discount coupon code i got in my email  in store so double whammy

i would've never thought of this. very nice lace swap. i didnt like the easters but now that i see this pic i might consider copping a pair now.

Nice collection.


That collection pic is BOSS!!! I'm still needing the Cool Grays...don't know what I'm waiting for.


Btw....I'll do $180 for Lebron 10s if they dope. JP hasn't put out a bad one yet. But $300 plus for Elites? I'm not buying NO Lebron for that price. Don't matter what colorways they drop.....EZ Pass!!! They disrespectful for even taking it there!
