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

[Ingenious Bastard]

*waits for solid soles to appear* I don't mind a little translucency though. Looks nice on these colorways

 

[jedv21]

I need more design "dem feels". The amazing colorways are coping it up though. So far, so good.

[gatorbeltsnpattiemelts]

And then there were two

Just follow tradition XII, go on sale.

THIS!!

I gotta learn to exercise a lil' bit more patience when it comes to Lebrons---all the ones I got coulda been had for way under retail had I just WAITED.

These people and there terrible picture taking. All this money spent on shoes but can't buy a decent camera. Unless Nike changed the color you can't even see the purple. The whole shoe looks black.

These look like cleats a linebacker would wear.

That ankle :x
Them pods on the sole :x
Those tongue tabs :x

Serious question. A lot of people have complained about the pods. Is it a comfort thing or the look to you? I can't for the life of me figure out why people are so up in arms over the bottom of the shoe. Who's gonna be all up on the bottom of your shoe?

While this is totally true...it's not the same every year. But I really hope that the 12 follows suit with the XI. My guess is the initial few CW's might be difficult only due to people being excited to cop his first shoe back in Cleveland...IMO.

 

[air jsarg]

wait a minute.... people are actually going to wear these off-court?

for GS, it's pretty much been this way since like 9s.... save for the Miami Nights aka South Beach 2s.


even IN GS Big Bangs can be had for a little over retail in my size--I've seen pairs go for like 135-175 shipped.

 

[joulze]

I know I am, as I do with all of my other shoes

 

[camerontate5]

Decent colorways so far but nothing cop worthy for me

 

[dc30]

gatorbeltsnpattiemelts No idea how...but I forget you on the GS steez, with the occasional men's 7 release...

 

[bowb4me]

Why would you think we wouldn't? Never saw a shoe I couldn't pull of casually.

 

[gatorbeltsnpattiemelts]

wait a minute.... people are actually going to wear these off-court?

wait a minute... people are still actually under the impression basketball/football/tennis shoes are only worn on-court?

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

i'm wearing mine to sleep

Im referring to the 3 angular pods sticking out the side of the shoe that look like shark teeth. Ruins the shoe along with the padded ankle.

yea----this size is a gift and a curse No middle ground. For instance; I seen NDS FORGING IRONS go for 100 bills in a size 7. I'm still mad I missed out on that.

Got you. An now that you mention it the pods do look funny. Especially in the new pic above.

 

[nathannelson23]

It's a nice shoe, but they will go on sale

 

[ammforever23]

Like that new colorway a whole lot. 3:4 so far ain't all that bad. Just want to see that cavs one already though I know they have it.
