The Official Nike LeBron XII Thread- "July 4th/USA" & "King's Cloak/Red Paisley" 06/27/15

[dc30]

What part of what Tri-State area are you guys from? :\

You guys really think a Lebron ASG shoe is gonna sit?

I don't care how much one doesn't like them, you gotta know with the beast and resellers these things are gonna fly off of shelves

Don't get me wrong I wish they would sit but I just know they won't |I

I'm in Bergen County and driving in to MSG is about a 20-25 minute ride over the GWB. 2 big malls each with Champs and HoH, plus all the places to cop in NYC. These won't fly off shelves. There was more hype on the Gumbo last year (IMO) and I picked up 2 pairs day of release no raffle ticket or anything. There were still pairs left later in the week. And then the slowly disappeared. But let's not forget the numerous restocks on GK's. I think the resellers should have wised up on Bron's by now with the 12. If you miss the 12 next week I would not sweat it at all. A little footwork or restock you'll be good, but that being said...you won't strike out.

Nobody is buying 12s to resell. You'd end up losing money. These aren't even limited.

Of course no ones been buying them to resell as of yet because nothing LIMITED has been announced to drop

Everything has been a GR release so the XII hasn't drawn that type of attention but ASG shoes are and have always been on a different bracket

But like others have said gauging this market is unpredictable, I will be copping Day 1, unfortunately you do not have the luxury of waiting when you wear a sz 14

Then again I may end up doing an ID depending on the options we end up getting

Were the BHM and Christmas shoes not considered limited this year?

I thought they were as limited as the last few years but just sat...

I think I'm going against the Court Visions...too similar to the Datas...and the Oreos are calling me.

Quasi. I copped multiples of last year's pack. And I'm not complaining either btw.

Last years models < this years

Last years colors > this years.

I feel the same about the ASG, but I won't/didn't cop either year.

Do what you gotta do to secure your pair. I don't knock anybody for standing in lines or paying above retail for even GRs if need be, but I'll NEVER do it myself.

But if you ask me, the market has become more predictable than before. Jordans aren't even going for way above retail right after release unless they're really limited (i.e. Frags, Just Dons, Slam Dunks, Cigars). Just look at the prices in the aftermarket on those remastereds. Retail on shoes now is too high for people to make significant profit margins on GRs. And almost any Lebron shoe in the past 2 years can still be bought for close to retail or even under except for maybe the Corks. The ASG 12 won't be any different

Saw the CVs in person and they're just ok. datas > CVs to me.

ASG pics looking good. Not on my radar at all to cop though. I think think the 12s are just a one and done type shoe for me. Bring out more monochromatic colorways and I'll change my mind.

 

[The7onius]

DH > everything but the TDMs.

 

[barbarianbob]

I really need to stop coming in this thread :\

The Double Helix are starting to grow on me

I just copped CV's and I'm already planning on getting ASG's (if she doesn't get them for me for V-day) or an ID

The woman is gonna ring my neck if I end up getting DH's too :x

 

[brewc1ty]

Idk why but that thing on the back of the ASG does it for me.. Passing on CV for the all stars

[blacklion23]

DH>>>>>ASG easily IMO

 

[The7onius]

What's the cheapest ya seen on the TDM?

Got mine for 125$ on Endclothing, they lasted about a day. Keep checking on here, I'm pretty sure more deals will pop up since they're still available on NDC and NBA.

You don't have to buy every shoe that meets your eye. Save some money, Kobes are better hoop shoes anyway...

 

[The7onius]

I don't think Bob plays, casually these look way better than the Kobes.

 

[laces1983]

Those DH are on a cop on RD type level for me!

Try and wait it out. Save that money sir.
I like the DH too but I'm gonna get at least $20 off before I buy them
