Official LeBron X Thread Vol. 2: Corks and Volts Launch 2/23

[hugree]

So these Corks are only dropping in MIA and 60 pairs for 2 stores?? SMH NIke

If this is true fans won't be able to forgive Nike for doing the same thing twice. First they screw up the MVP / Championship pack... now the other Championship shoe... Corks.

If I were able to cop with the bday coupon I'd grab 'em in a heartbeat, but pretty much every LeBron Christmas shoe has been the same the past few years.  The Jades are at least somewhat unique.  I guess there's only so much that you can do with a red/green shoe.  Like them, but they're just not must haves.

I still need to track down black laces to throw in my Jades.

Yeah, babe. Theyre Expensive shoes: the price point n barrage of jordans, kobes and kds for a braxton of he cost... Is why these arent moving like the ninas.

But i love how bulky these are.

The thick 360 max unit pretty much add a little over 1.5 inches to ur overall height.


So with these badboys on, im sitting at a comfortable 5 foot 3 1/4.

this lebron line is a complete failure by nike. they release a bunch of garbage colorways that no one wants and the actual colorway that people want they make it impossible to get.

Right....

Like if the Corks were a GR, they would sit on shelves too.

Take that gibberish back to the "Buy Limited Shoes Only" thread...

 

[thapointguy]

Maybe Nike will throw the Cork option on iD and charge the Sport Pack price of $310. Ya'll would cop?

 

[muzikfrk75]

I concur.

I had them in my cart several times yesterday and just couldn't pull the trigger.

I like the shoe, but I don't love it enough to pay retail.

Glad I pulled the trigger right away on the Jades though.  Loved that shoe the second I saw it, and I didn't want to regret waiting on it like I tried to do with some of the 9's.

Whatever.....

Xmas>>>>Jades

Anyday of the week & twice on Sundays.

It's all opinion...

But I saw the Xmas in person...and they are nice.  But only the Jades have given me the "oh s***" response when I first saw them in person.

 

[eugenile gts]

i too saw the jades in person. someone rocking em. it too gave me the "oh s***" response, but followed by, "damn really, people like those?"

guess its just too "Cray" for me.. just dont think i could pull it off, and i never like to purchase shoes i wouldnt wear so thats prob why.

but i actually like the XMAS Xs. actually bought em.

:x

and yes i just realize it could be irony that i say the Jades are too crazy, yet there i go purchasing those multi-colored kobes too lol

 

[axelrod]

Yea thats what im thinking also. Just not having an easy time finding my size for Christmas ones at the moment. Can't believe I overslept yesterday....

Hey, its the day after christmas. You gotta enjoy the holidays. Don't beat yourself up.

Them Kobes are colorful then a mutha ****** thou....

 

[axelrod]

Wow the Lebrons in person are sooooo dope IMO. BTW thanks nike for the cork in miami only release.. appreciate it... customer from NY...

lol. im a ny head 2 and i kinda understand your statement. 

 

[reener]

only in Miami

 

[dickiefactz]

Interchange the laces please!

Would like to see this as well. And both are nice, can't say which pair I like the most at the moment.

Yeah I wanna try that whenever my Christmases get here...but I hear guys say how much of a pain they are to relace. 

 

[cali j 360]

Can I use discount coupon on corks

 

[muzikfrk75]

Jades (and last year's Big Bangs) aren't a shoe that I would personally wear but I do think they are nice looking.

 

[alp]

is that miami only **** confirmed? i hope not

WHAAAAAAA!?!? Big bangs are crazy crack. Would rock the hell outta them. I dnt own a pair . But I understand u did say personally

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

BigJ shot out

 

[terx]

Christmas are still city here in LA . I'll be passing on them though

 

[iheartboost]

[terx]

The KDs and Kobes are pretty much all gone . I find it surprising how the Lebron are still sitting according to Nike LA and Santa Monica

Agreed.  They are insane.  When the pics first surfaced of them, I posted "not for me....but they are a f***** problem".

Back to the Xs, still don't own a pair yet.  Waiting for the Carbons to drop in price.

 

[joulze]

If they honestly only plan on making "60" pairs of Corks why not just make them a "friends & family" exclusive and keep all of those excessive pics of the Corks to themselves because I for one don't care about seeing a bunch of pics of a pair of shoes over and over again that I'm not going to have a chance at even getting
