Which has/will hold a higher value, I'll trade for that and buy the other one later on when I find a good deal / good trade.

Big Bangs. I personally think they are executed better. Plus, I see the prices getting higher with them.

 

[eugenile gts]

got my pairs

having some 2nd thoughts on what ill actually be keeping though, we'll see..

 

[s dubl]

Really wanted the halo... Oh well. These are real clean in person.

If the weather is nice today like it's supposed to be Swingmans are going out in the wild.

I really hope your joking saying that they don't pop

Im go ahead and say this I hated the IX after first pics populated

But once you saw the colorways the shoe became more appealing and now i have 5 pairs i realize how damm comfortable they are

Plus the quality is amazing the materiels are so on point paying 180 for a IX feels so much better then 180 for a XI concord that looks like @@++ in a bucket

Overall im satisfied the IX blew me away.......................BUT THE 8 is still the most Legendary lebron to date for me!!

Your big toe will appreciate it.

I feel like wearing them unlaced actually makes my big toe uncomfortable b/c it gives them room to slide up and touch the front... lacing them locks them down into position.
But then again, thats why everyone should go at least .5 size up

if you looking for comfort, stay AWAY from the Zoom Rookies... 'Brons are MUCH easier on the feet

I agree with all of this. Especially the part of the 8's. I wish there was a greater variety in colors released for the 8 like there is for the 9s.

I do.  I have the breds and swingmans in a 12.5....swingmans feel tighter.  
And you guys were right, pics don't do the swingmans justice...in person they are 

 

[dark knight 805]

Has anyone's order from eastbay/champs shipped yet?

I hope so too, but I saw him replying on one of Bron's dunkman Tweets saying "Wait til they see the X.." 
I'm thinking if the Elites were hot, he would've hyped them up instead of skipping to the X's.

I really think that the Elites are going to look very similar to the hyperdunk or hyperelite sneaker that Lebron has on for the USA photo's

Wrong. They look just like IX's. That pic floating around is very false. It's a combo of like 4 different shoes (none of which are Brons). X's are 

 

[adub beta]

why can't they let us see the elites pictures already?
