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

[dc30]

I'm starting to like the denim X's more and more it's so many shoes I need to go back and get.
If I'm not feeling the XIII i'll start then, but I probably will there's no LeBron sig I don't like

When I do get the mints I think I wanna have someone dye them red

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, and I have gotten this request a fair amount of times...but you can't dye black a lighter color. If you were gonna try anything your better bet would be hazelnuts dyed red. A little sole dye for the air bag and clear sole as well.

repped.....bruh, info on laces? Lol

The laces come from a pair of Alien Workshop Vans Syndicate. I would post pics but Ive already posted enough non 12s in here already.

Dang, I like the hazelnuts enough to do that smh Nike why couldn't you just release them

I was watching videos last night about how to keep the soles nice and icy. I didn't realize my soles have been yellowing just a little. But the upper part and the sides are just fine.

Can anyone recommend me some kind of 'sauce' or how to properly manage my soles if it becomes worse? Thanks in advance.

Have you used it before?

 

[qstephen19]

Have you used it before?

Not yet but if any of my icey soles yellow that's all I will be using

 

[kevininsd]

Have you used it before?

I have used it on several pairs including Big Bang 9s and a couple foams.  Works really well, just do short treatments (about an hour - 2 hours max) and MAKE SURE you tape off the shoe...tape it really good...that stuff is strong.

So do you use it after it has yellowed completely? And how often do you have to use it.

Thanks for the input on the foams, just got the golds so I would want to use it for them.

 

[laokratwr]

Any info on those palmers ?

Is a US release due or nah ?

On my foams, they were full yellow, brought them back to say 80% clear, still a bit of haze here and there but I don't want to risk sole separation and over-treat.  

On my Big Bangs, the sole on those took 3 1.5 hour treatments and they are also about 80% of original look.  The bangs I taped twice, just to be safe and avoid any burn on the shoe itself.  on my blue foams, it leaked onto the heel area a bit and I do have a nice little light blue streak now.  LOL  

Tape, Apply, ice bags in, set in the sun for about 1.5 hours.  Check em.  Repeat if desired.

And probably gonna pick up the What Ifs for the wifey this weekend as she is a Die-Hard Cowboys Fan.  Are the zoom pods set-up the same on a 7Y size pair?

Gold hyperfused web on top of a white base. Gold posite, White swoosh, white double helix type rare plate, and a gold lion or crown lace lock.  "Kiss the Rings".

Aww to hell with it, add a black version and make it a pack $500...sellout.
