I'm good with LeBron wearing the XI Elite, even if it is a PE, beats the heck outta having to look at those Soldiers all game long

Looks like DJ Envy was hyped over grabbing the Hornets this weekend:
 
1. Kings Pride
2. Miami Nights
3. Forging Iron
4. Gator King
Top 4 will change after those Mango Elites drop
 
1. KP

2. BHM

3. MVA

Only three I've liked so far. Been pretty dissapointing considering how much i like the silhouette.

Seriously the elites look like an 11 take down model without the posite and they threw in some "high quality plastic" for an excuse to raise the price.

yeah the elites don't look to elite....and i would have to make a final decision on the lows once i see them in person, but as of right now my fancy isnt too tickled!....and kudos to those who don't have the KP on their top 5 or 3 list or not have it as # 1

To be fair every elite has been a take down from the OG starting with the Lebron 8 v2 and v3

Yes, look like cheap fakes. You can't take a shoe designed to use plastic then throw felt on it :smh:

Only a matter of time before a LS foamposite comes out made of leather :x. Retail for 300 or course

Suede foams are already on their way come August lol. Turrible!

Yepp. Apparently it's in the workings from what I've heard, but I haven't seen the NSW summer launch list personally so I can't confirm 100%. A rep that stops by one of my local said black suede and then a "tennis-ball" like volt color way. Who knows if it's true, but I trust him. I'm not copping either way so idc honestly.

agreed

I agree up until the 9 and X, those both (especially the X Elite) felt like an improved model, better built, performance driven.

i would even include the 9 and the X. while claiming to be fortified by more carbon fiber the truth is materials were taken out to make them a lite version of the original shoe.

people are trying to justify the removal of posite and say this elite doesnt look elite because of less posite...but posite is no better of a material than hyperfuse etc. its all synthetic material that cost roughly the same to manufacture.

IMO the whole "elite" concept is an unneeded gimmick and it makes no sense to try and justify something that is unneeded
