[jadaqwest]

HOH Parks Mall in arlington texas told me that they didnt get palmers and red LBJ 12 lows because nike has some kind of strike going on overseas....

The Elite kinda look like that black prototype. BTW, I can't even find words to describe how terrible the shoe looks.

 

[jadaqwest]

Them elites look like adidas both colorways will hit clearance racks im sure the pricing is 275 to 300...

 

[blacklion23]

The Team Collection pair look like they're for the Heat.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Now they put zoom in all 6 pods instead of 4

There's still 4. One is the shank and the other is empty.

The LEBRON 12 Elite embodies pinnacle performance and indisputable strength, much like James himself. The LEBRON 12 Elite leverages high-quality Megafuse construction with mesh and composite for structure and features new vertical wings wrapping the foot for lockdown and stability. The shoe now features six visible, independent Nike Zoom Air units that provide low profile, responsive cushioning. The strategic placement of the pods is engineered for James's explosiveness and his multidirectional movement.

WOW The 12 Elites look SICK!! Especially the Red ones!! Wow I love the Lebron 12!!!

Edit: Too slow.

Team and Rose Gold are

 

[blacklion23]

Fruity Pebbles will be copped for the kids!!

 

[nick at now]

Cereals are dope.  I'd wear those. 

 

[jumpman15]

I wonder what kind of crazy price these elites will have.

 

[The7onius]

Elites are beyond fire!! is Nike trolling or something

 

[the connoisseur]

Love the design of the Elites, especially that cracked marble looking red and black TPU on the Teams. The lace lock also looks badass.

These probably don't have as much casual appeal as the regular XII, but they're sleek and futuristic, so I'm down with a discount.

And Bob......your prediction about the sixth zoom pod was spot on.

 

[Magic33]

In the right colorways the elites might be ok. Not a fan of any of those though.

 

[ventureblake]

Ok those fruity pebbles have me salty

 

[thapointguy]

Rose Gold will be had for the right price. The CV got put on the back burner now.

 

[kevininsd]

I like the Elevate...almost a HWC colorway.  Clean for Summer League.  And the Rose Gold would be much better if the Red Liner and accents were ALL rose Gold.

Now I wanna see the EXT Black/Chrome and Corks.  

Probably won't cop another base model...really feeling the elites.

 

[thapointguy]

@GatorBeltsNPattieMelts gonna be stuntin' in em Cereals.

 

[thetrillionaire]

Guess I'm in the minority, not really feeling the elites. Basically added a 6th zoom pod and replaced posite with some funky looking TPU - far cry from when they'd at least add carbon fiber before jacking up the price...
