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

[T0INE]

I see Eastbay has the "sell out in seconds.." message  up for the Prisms.

You'd think they'd learn from the Lava release last time..

 

[kidkrazy007]

Isnt that the same message that has been posted since before? Because even when you click different colors on both the Lebrons and Kd's that description still stays...I guess they anticipate every color selling out... I can say Im surprised to see only 1 size in the blackouts.

 

[Deleted member 37467]

I still think the USA colorway is the cleanest of the entire line.

Yup.

Yeah the Carbons seemed to have dried up online, only scarce pairs across multiple sites, while colorways like the Floridians and Lavas still have more or less a FSR on a few sites.

Some shenanigans by Nike maybe?

 

[ihust1e]

 that 3 of the most limited colorways are the best colorways.

Absolutely agree about the USAs. Wish I could have grabbed them.

Seen the jades plenty of times in person. They do nothing for me

Had to go through hell to get them but finally...

They are milking the 'Themes/Nicknames' for all that their worth, it won't stop until the 'sneakerheads' start realizing that their 'investments' aren't worth anything.

 

[jordan23dotcom]

^^^ maybe so, but the "galaxy" run has ended and will be replaced with something else to beast over

 

[weather]

Yeah, I'm starting to get burned out on the Xs. I'm going to cop the Prisms but along with a pair of Kobe VIII Sulfurs and KDV DMVs if I can find them.
Corks, Galaxy's and Denims are the "best" color ways because they venture out of the stale manner in which the color ways are being designed. And it's crazy so far we have:
USA +
Crown Jewels+
Cutting Jades
Blue Diamonds +
Pressures +
Floridians Away
Dunk man
Carbon
Lava
X-Mas
Prisms
Holy crap and we still have Canary Diamond, Floridian Home, Breds, Corks, BHM, Denim, All Star/Galaxy, etc plus the garbage lows.

Yep, you forgot the all volt Dunkman's too. That's 20+ CWs released just for the high's. How many is enough? Crazy.

 

[soledier]

Has anyone called to see if the Prisms will be discounted on Swoosh?

Corks just went on sale to people who are on Nike elite.com   smh so far it looks like only for people who are sponsored by Nike can get them.

I don't care about the galaxy theme, I just want the damn glow in the dark bottoms! I don't care if the sneakers themselves have little yellow duckies on them!

 

[omegax]

Just bought the corks on nikeelite.com  The price is 305.00  They have all sizes and you can order up to 5 in each size.  Either these arent released to the public and the are just for nike athletes or they will be very very easy to get.  

NOOOO, haven't checked my Elite account since ordering bred XIs!! Can't believe they stealth dropped on there. They did the Aunt Pearl KDs the same way, smh.

 

[jordan23dotcom]

^^^^ I'm sure some stride rites for kids glow in the dark if that's the case

 

[omegax]

Just checked my Elite account. They're not up.

Yea Nike def went overboard with the Lebron X, setting a record for colorways in 1 shoe, not even taking there time with it either. 

 

[gamechanger]

never heard of this nikeelite before, is it new? if not thats how athletes probably got their yeezys and other ****

There was a big security issue with Nikeelite that you all might remember from last summer. Disclaimer: don't try this at home (ha):

Both late check the thread

Are the prisms going to be a tough cop? High demand? Do I need 6 laptops to score these in the morning lol

 

[mibuck6]

Surprised nobody has talked about these yet.. Releasing on the 12th.View media item 193845

i don't think so. NT hype is usually pretty indicative of how releases go, and the amount of hype for the prisms is about the same as the hype for the dunkmans lol. more people here were beasting over the floridians. so nah...1 laptop is probably good. only reason im even waking up at 5 to get them is cuz i usually wake up 30 mins later for work anyway

guessing not based on Flight Club's generous price of 225
