Official: Revised Lebron IX Thread. MVP's revealed! MV's WILL have toddler sizes! 6/2

[bluprynt78]

Saw these in person on release and I gotta say, they're still behind the Chinas! Take away the limited status and I might even put on  the same level as the MN's and the Cannons. I'll go a step further, take away the GITD sole as well and these will sit.
Obviously this is my opinion so no need to flame.

You're right, cuz that was damn near all wrong. I know a lot of people are upset with how this release went, but it seems as if some of these statements are now out of frustration, as if you're trying to convince yourselves otherwise. Bangs were fire before the hype, before we knew they were going to be the ASG shoe, before we knew they glowed in the dark, and before they were labeled a QS. They've been fire (damn near literally) and receiving praise on here for months, and now to see statements like these is puzzling, but considering the bitter situation, almost understandable.

[garylok11]

Put them under the white light (soles face up) for a while. 
It's about camera work.

Frustration? Actually I had a chance to cop the BB's (Long Story). Went with the KD's instead. Like I said, in person this shoe didn't "WOW" me like the China's did. Saw the Foams as well and those were the worst ones of the bunch! Too many times we see "PICS" beforehand and have a completely different opinion afterwards. Whether it's good or bad. I'm not here to argue though so lets keep this thread moving.
Again, this is just my $.02.

That is one thing I don't understand, to be upset at how things went down is one thing, we all were in agreement these were FIRE when we saw the initial MS pics, I can't deny them being fire now that I missed on the release, I just can't believe how things went down.Anyway...I'm trying my hardest to like the Dunkmans, just not feeling them though in pics. I'll check them out in person because I was the same with last year's dunkmans...don't see it happening though. Swingmans hopefully will kick off my March, and the SLH will finish off my March right.I keep wishing there would be a QS team edition lebron release...don't know how I'd even be able to get them though smh.

 

[deionandmelo]

i love those dunkmans. will double up on them instead of grabbing mangos or swingmans

 

[notorious cruz]

got my pair, cost me some concords and a little cash but they are def worth it, threw on some cannon laces not sure if i like em or not

I meant on the shoe itself...The volt green makes the shoe, imho.

 

[moneyman23]

Concords and cash tho? **Hard swallow** pause

 

[moneyman23]

this whole forum.

 

[casper90403]

the orange cannon lace swap

 

[jaey]

It's crazy how I can't find one single video on Youtube of the LBJ 9 Dunkmans but there are a couple of videos of the Swingmans how strange.

 

[redsfan3]

Remember when people were saying the 9s couldn't be worn casually. That was a misconception...
