What about having your signature athletes wear and promote their signature sneakers on the biggest stage of the season thus far doesn't make sense. That's the only reason I can think of why they drop the day after.

Hype. Hope lebron pull a triple salchow dunk with great shots of the shoe and let the fanboys run wild.

Yeah for the non-sneakerheads who aren't on this site, which is the majority of that consumer demographic (believe it or not), they see the players wear them on Xmas day and then the marketing on twitter and the internet starts - and then with all the money that they get from the holiday (gift cards, money, etc) they are more inclined to purchase it on the day after. Not to mention, many other stores have discounts the day after Xmas, so this allows people to stumble upon them if they were not aware of them in the first place (i.e. Niketowns).

I mean KD and Kobe didn't play on Christmas..so it kinda takes away from the fact that it is "their" christmas shoe..but I like those the best out of the Christmas Day Collection..the Lebrons just don't do anything for me even though Lebron was able to wear his..I do think they should release them the week before the games are played on Christmas so that everyone could get them in time for Christmas..make it free 2-day shipping and I think that would b dope..

Peterson is more over rated than Sherman. I'm not seven sure why he's in the conversation as a great corner TBH. And I'm from AZ.

Thats dope! My kids still looking for their first pair. Pops sitting here with 3 already.
Good stuff man!
I was pretty sure my wife got me my pair, but she surprised me with a pair for my little guy in the same big box mine were in!
We got good ladies.

I think the X-mas sitting because as others have said it's an ugly shoe. I copped pair of the Kobe's and those are not sitting at all, it's much better looking shoe though

I think for me personally, the problem is when I look at the "Akron Birch" pair I see "South Beach" not "Christmas." The past pairs have all been pretty "Christmas" looking.

for me the Christmas pair this year was one of those shoes you had to go through steps on whether or not you liked or would cop them... step 1 was the first leaked pic: i held my tongue on passing judgement due to the quality of the pic...step 2: better quality pics surfaced along with different angles of the shoe and i decided that they were ok.....step 3: seeing the shoe the first time but not from a pic but when lebron wore them yesterday, makes you start to finalize if you like them...step 4 seeing them in hand and in person, should finalize if you would cop having now seen the details of the shoe...i just came from the mall and i decided i would cop if....

I don't think so...the posite or swoosh or liner is supposed to have a "pattern" to it.
