Sent my Hero Elite XI's to Nike cuz fuse was coming unglued, gave me $275 voucher, copped the 4th and Cle pairs with that and 20%. $45 out of pocket for both pairs from NDC.
Do you have a picture of the fuse coming unglued? I got a shoe that is separating a little bit from the outsole/midsole wondering if they'll accept it. Thanks in advance. I like your jersey to shoe matching as usual

WARNING: a serious rant is on the way
I don't dislike the 12's I dislike the overall marketing of the 12's. There wasn't any real excitement (for me) behind any of the releases except maybe the Palmers and when I say excitement I don't mean hype. I mean not to much build up of anticipation or anything or many I have to buy day one releases, but more releases like oh I'll just wait until they go on sell releases. A lot of releases I didn't even know came out I'd just happen to see them sitting beside all of the other Lebrons that released in a row. Then a lot of the nice PE's in Cav's color ways didn't even release and The Trainwreck's where just friends and family. Even now the Corks and Tennis Ball EXT's are suppose to be releasing, yet we still have no clear or detailed pics but we already have gs pics of the 13's? I feel like the 12's overall have been really sluggish.
Did not read.....
Naw I did tho
I'm personally really happy with the 12. Each color has been attainable for retail or below. Some solid colors in the lineup and tho I don't own any exts and I liked the reg 11 more, the 12 exts destroy the 11 as a collection. I would even say the 12 elites are better than the 11.

I can agree with that. But keep in mind there's also two times the amount of 12 ext's than the 11's. The concepts on the 12's are better than the 11's to me also. I just feel they dropped the ball on that premium quality on a couple of pairs. No metal lace tips just gold plastic on some pairs, the Prism pair doesn't even have leather on the inside of the shoe or any premium materials on them that I visually see. Think about the X and XI materials versus the XII's, there's definitely a difference in quality on some pairs. I personally don't feel any of the 12 Elites are better than the unchamp/Ironman/red gold elites or even the superhero 11 elites but that's just my opinion of course.
I hear u man. I understand that the xi didn't get many EXT colors but when you list them out, only 1 is even good
Denim - garbage
Blue smurf - garbage
(And both of those def don't have the "quality" materials you would expect.
The KC does work tho. The only EXT I like.
And the silhouette of the 12 elite is just more prettier to man that the 11 elite. The elite se 11 mid COULD have been much better by using a deeper gold vs the shallow one we got and maybe another color (maybe black). Now the super hero elite xi tho... Still love them. Hate the blue elites because of that ugly 3m pattern on the toe box and didn't love the black elite either.
At least the elevation elite 12 is the color of one of the old throwback cavs unis
That was a solid warranty claim/exchange @Dc30
I think 4th of July's may be my favorite general release 12 when it's all said and done.
I like the pics of the blue lace swap, but the white lace swap won me over!
Most of Lebron's PEs > almost every 12
1. Independence Day
2. CLE
3. Wheat
Corks and Tennis Balls will probably will be my 1 and 2 after they released
Best pair of all models:
Most of his personal PEs were garbage in my opinion. Only liked the Vet Days.
