The Official Nike LeBron 14 Thread. Retail $175

Tried em on, a little harder than normal to get on, but no where near as hard as KD9. Seem comfortable, but I didn't wear em around as I am still up in air as to what I am doing with them LOL!!
 
Thank you. That's all I needed to know (I'm sure others had that concern also). We gotta wait 2 more weeks :smh:

**Edit: now add the fact that LeBron shared a post on IG about a couple driving over 2 hours and camped overnight for these in Ohio. A wide release isn't looking too good right now but hopefully I'm wrong

Man I saw that this morning on IG...and was pissed because I thought the same exact thing. If LBJ co-signing on exclusivity of his own product, a restock might be out of the picture.

Still Nike shouldn't royally screw over everyone else like they did with this drop. *face palm*

Lebron has always been about that life tho.
 
I just read LeBron post.. It's nice that he recognized people for their loyalty.. But if the shoes were released at other locations as well, he would have more loyal people.

Bottom line.. I think these will not have a restock.

Marketing 101. Look at the 3 stripes. They have people convincing themselves that socks and styrofoam is the most advanced technology in the footwear market today when lowkey, it's because a maniacal egomaniac who has a tendency of outbursts and dyeing his hair and scarce quantities is the sole reason for this demand.

Welcome to the shoe game.

I don't think anyone believes those shoes represent the most advanced technology, though boost is really comfortable. No one thought AJIs were advanced in 2015 but people still lined up and paid crazy costs for them. I'm not a fan of the AZG, but if Nike drops some limited pairs people will become interested just because. Hype has been a big factor in the shoe game for quite awhile. And though there will always be people keen to buy what they like, you can't condemn Adidas for having the Trump card right now. Lord know's Nike played that game well. Speaking of, hopefully the OON will be available at a few spots for ASG.

Here's what Lebron said about his AZG First Game retro release, "This shoe is for EVERY SINGLE person with a dream and a passion. No matter what your situation is. From the projects to the palace, this shoe is a symbol that you can do anything." Yet, they were limited to 500 pairs. I think the whole "loyalty" thing is BS.

A shoe being symbol of representation/aspiration for a group of people ≠ A shoe being available for any and every last person that feels that it represents them.

Nowhere in there does he say "will be available to", so I don't get why people kept bringing his words up in that thread.

That heel Zoom pod is looking way beefy compared to the others. Hopefully these are a dream to walk around in.

Gotta wait for @dwoodactennis to get his pair in.

From looking through the fastpass page, the Zoom Air pods have gotten bigger and thicker so should feel nice. I just want to know if it's a hard to put your foot into the bootie or not. Those got them and posted pics not even trying them on?!?

woulda been dope if the 14 had a strip of zoom at the end of the toes. probably for the elites
 
It sort of makes sense that there's zoom in the toes of the KD 9s and not in these considering  the differences in Lebron and KD's footwork

That's probably not a satisfying answer for a lot of consumers but I can appreciate the seemingly intentional design differences
 
I am happy for all who were able to cop the shoe. I will just wait for additional colorways to drop. If that doesn't work either, I will just buy something else. I never waited outside long hours to buy anything.. Except some Lil Pet Shop toys for my daughter yrs ago.. Sometimes it hard to say no to your kids.. Lol
