I think the first pic is the removable sock liner. and the bottom pic is the outer. the description says posite flaps. if you look at the bottom pic you can see 3 possible rubber straps. one near the toe. one in the mid and one near the ankle.

i know im reaching a bit but the possible boot/sock liner looks like it has a pattern that resembles medieval times-esque chain link armor. the outer would be the "shining" armor. and i think that chain link would also act to create friction with the outer so it doesnt slide around inside.

they could be going with a knight/king/game of thrones theme. maybe thats why there is no lion logo. just "king" james.

i cant believe theyre taking it back to thee MORPH days.

Watching too much Game of Thrones! Concept sounds good though.

KicksOrDie had his connect in the factory that makes him all of his early release fakes take a pic for him in the break room.

You can clearly see the shoe isn't complete, the clown has no affiliation with Nike to be able to see any of this stuff early.

It's just a sock liner and a bottom not attached to anything, same as he did with his Futures.

With that being said, I can't wait to see the a REAL pair of the REAL shoe.

I don't know why people fall into this same cycle year after year knowing that the first few pictures of a new model are nothing to form a real opinion off of :lol:

upon taking a few more looks at it......yes it appears to be a removable sock liner. However, there appears to be just too much design on it for me to believe that it is going to be entirely covered within a shell. I mean, why put the swoosh on there?

I bet a lot of this inner sock is going to be visible within the final shoe....which really makes it interesting, because maybe we will be able to mix liners with different outers? a lot of possibilities....I'm pretty excited. 
 
Ehhh. If it is real...I still need more pics

The shoe looks like it's not even fully put together

From what you can tell it looks like the xi with an updated look. Pass on the xi's, until proven otherwise (and price isn't od which it will be) pass. Price over/under 220? :nerd:

Like the Jordan 2012? If so I hope they execute it better than they did..
Maybe it will have Hyperposite arrange similar to the Hyperposite 2 that's coming out.
 
IMO that interchangeable stuff almost never works right and feels pretty much the same. It's just a reason to up the price to whatever they're asking. I'm thinking 220 minimum with an elite version for 300
 
You would think that Nike would make the shoe 1 solid structure with the issues that lebron has with the 11.
 
This is what happens when damn near every Kobe 9 sells out.

get ready to see them soldiers on display every night again!

this is what i really dont understand about this whole bootie/shell combo. so hes gonna pop an orthotic into a booty and THEN into a shell of a shoe? i feel like that whole thing is gonna shift all over the place

..if thats even what the original issue was
