$160 for these?
Nike and Lebron are deluded.
Plain shoe. Plain colorway. In the last several years Nike charged, what? $135? for generic full length Air Max shoes?
What makes these an extra 25 other than Nike's greed and Lebron's ego?
The Logo?
The fact that we have the 'privelege' of owning a shoe made to look like what Lebron is wearing... and i severely doubt that what he's wearing is actually the same as what's at retail.
A few good colorways may save this shoe, but the combination of the shoe's design, that particular 'colorway' just embodies Nike, and Lebron's complacency.
...and no great love for the VII here either. Generic, uncomfortable, but i got a decent colorway at at unusually low price, and took them.
Where's the sig shoe that's 'Fit for the King?'

To his credit, Durant pushed for a more affordable shoe, Nike proably aren't going to push the price up too much, and there's no way they're going to make a techy affordtable shoe.
It's just not what Nike are about.
Lebron's shoe line has become bloated, expensive, and generic, multiple shoes but little creativity.... too focused on the numbers, not enough on the product.
Doubt his ego could handle the price cut his sig shoe should really be subjected to.
