The Official Nike LeBron 14 Thread. Retail $175

Only would get bhm on sale.


Would have only gotten all stars on sale.

:lol:
Exactly why Nike may have actually nixed the plans. People got past the gimmicks of flashy expensive colorways and they wouldn't sell out in minutes. Also over-saturation of the market. 

Also possibly the ASG move from Charlotte to NO influenced this decision. Maybe they were to far along with the other colorways and didn't have time to come up with something new.

Wouldn't be surprised if they are given ASG PE's for themselves though. 

Other all star shoes are still releasing from the cha theme

There is an AS pack...there will be a lot of excitement around NOLA...BUT people are definitely NOT past the Nike gimmicks lol we just saw that people are very much still caught up in them by paying $200 for the out of nowwhere Lebron 14 while the less hyped BHM is $175 :lol:
 
Most of his pe's have been trash except maybe the navy and gold pair. They need to just give us ID and a full acronym inspired pack.


2012 was definitely the height of Nike Basketball hype and it seems they might be trying to get back to that with legit quick strikes according to this

why are 2 KD9s tagged ASG on this?

I know I saw the Jordan's, just wondering if Nike Basketball specifically decided to pass. Not saying it's the main reason but could have been a part.
I think the shoes may have already been in production by the time they found out the switch. I guess they could go the route of the AZG ASG and completely scrap them despite being produced, but I doubt it.
 
Where are the BHMs on that document? Are they designated ASG?

Disappointing as a New Orleanian. Nike just needs to do a better job executing concepts rather than canceling these gimmicky releases. BHM this year for instance is completely uninspired, without the PR there's nothing that would lead you to believe they're celebrating black history.
 
it's funny. i can't remember when all star cw's started. i know i'm an older cat on here, but i just remember mj wearing the away colors or playoffs back in the day. it's funny how times have changed...how ppl seem to "freak out" or get disappointed if there isn't a certain cw to release for certain occasions.

I recall Weber wearing his chrome shoes that one year being one of the first in my memory at least. They kept talking about it on the tv. Mj wore the all white 11s also didn't he for the all star game?
 
Brain windhorst, the mouthpiece for lebron on espn had this to say as to one of the reasons he's so salty recently

:lol:

:nerd: Lebron with the subliminal diss towards Nike?

I knew Bron had to be upset with Nike. He wins a Chip in Cleveland which is probably the highlight of his career and the still haven't released his shoe to ride the momentum.

Then don't let me get started on the design of the 14 :lol:

Lebron signed a lifetime contract and Nike know they got him. Lebron can't even express his disgust because they got control of him.
 
So for our first two colorways we get a black/white pair followed up by a white/black pair...people who screamed for "basic" should be thrilled!
