The NBA takes its self too seriously.

Damn thats rough. Get a shoe you want to wear and then you arent allowed to. I'm sure Nike will change the soles on them for him though.

 

[dyyhard]

if you're Lebron, rules don't apply.

Lebron 2004 Got Milk Rookie/Soph Game.

not sure if the rules have changed since then. apparently they have, at least for regular season.

 

[zombiejesus12]

They definitely don't restrict footwear during all star weekend.

that was a minute ago doggie, nba gets a new dress code rule every year it seems

 

[frenchblue23]

For gum soles? What next, no flywire allowed?

 

[bp the owner]

the reds and the blues dont seem to be 51% white/black anyways. i really dont see a problem with the all whites though, the gum sole is a nice touch.

rules must not apply to Lebron, some of the stuff he's worn hasnt even been close to the rules...

nba basically saying iggie don't have enough clout to let this small thing slide.

stern's being too uptight

I agree with the 51% rule on the blue and red versions, but not clearing the white pair over having a gum rubber sole seems like bs...

And I'm sure Lebron just wears whatever he wants and lets Nike take care of the fine after the fact.

That's lame of the NBA but no one should bring up LeBron and his Wheat AZG.

Those were for ASW where anything goes as far as sneakers are concerned.

 

[size twelve]

wheat azg might be my favorite bron of all time. including PEs and whatever..

 

[moneylicious]

Lebron wore how many diff Vs and VIs during the year? And they get at Iggy for gumsoles??

 

[si3xers55]

damn, doing my man iggy hop dirty...i was hopin he would rock the kobe 4 PEs

if you're talking about these, they look like IDs to me -- see the gray outsole? but then again, the kobe logo is blue, not red like the toebox. hmm.

 

[playoff12]

He can always rock it with this..

[jau014]

@ nba

 

[arff23]

Wow...that is strict...

 

[jfmartimcdandruff]

Why they gotta do my boy like that?

 

[toosmoove29]

Those all white joints are bangin. I hope they put these on iD.

 

[23dwyanewade3]

why no gum soles?

 

[nomadicsole21]

NBA and David Stern, they lettheir golden boy wear whatever he wants, and doesnt let AI wear his gum soles? Wow.

NBA has some weak dress code rules, but players have 2 or 3 times to pass their drug tests. What kind of example is the league setting for kids?

You can be high all the time, just make sure your kicks are straight. SMH.
