I'm probably getting these first thing in the morning lol. Trying to decide between these and the playoff 8s

“Veins” remind me of something/someone else….

Playoff 8s by a mile.

Akoyas you can wait on and get them cheaper.

Lottery pick?

Lottery pick?

all star level talent with immediate impact in the league

These joints really be looking like veins lol

16G or 18G easy!

The shoe might be okay with a decent color-way, but this joint is the worst signature Nike shoe I think I’ve ever seen.

 

[g-time]

Lol no

Giannis and PG have some real stinkers, and the elena delle donne shoe is pretty wack too

Those Devin Booker’s are way worse than these.

The 21s look clean in person and on feet Imo.

I like the Book 1s too.

I think I like plain, generic looking shoes and colors though lol.

Some initial thoughts:

• The XXIs are quite sturdy. They weren’t kidding when they said these protect your feet
• They are chunky in a good way, like a 2023 Air Monarch IV
• I thought it was tumbled leather but it has a brushed feeling. Not really suede but the kinda like the lining of the official leather Apple iPhone cases if you know what I mean
• 17.2oz for a men’s 11.5; XXs in the same size are 15.3oz
• The weight increase from the XXs is noticeable but they don’t feel heavy/clunky on foot
• Heel lockdown is improved over the XXs
• XXs feel slightly lower to the ground/give you more courtfeel
• Forefoot Zoom bag is more responsive in the XXIs
• XXIs run quite long, half size down for sure, I might even try a full size down along with half size down
• Traction should be very good, maybe a tier below elite, just like the XXs last year

Need to exchange for half size down and maybe grab a full size down pair to compare. You can see where my big toe ends (bulge) and where my second toe ends (my finger).

 

[the red model]

Yeah, I also had to go .5 size down from my XX size. I’m going back today to exchange.

I usually go .5 up but I don’t have to with these.

 

[Confessions of Fire]

damn that’s interesting. When’s the last time a Lebron sig shoe ran big? Almost seems like a first. I’ve either had to go up a 0.5 size or stay TTS in the past. Thanks for the tip fellas

definitely don’t recommend half size down lol - I went tts and it hey fit perfect, half size down would have been a pain (for me at least) - agree with pretty much everything else

 

[spiderjericho]

YMMV. Everybody’s foot is different.

I’m not buying the initial colorway but probably the purple pair so I hope I can try it in the store.

your 2nd toe is all the way over there? I know your feet look like they throwin up gang signs when you don't have shoes on.

My boy must be either Ralph, Mikey, Leo or Donatello

 

[the red model]

I would try these on.

The leather upper gets stained VERY easily btw. Not sure if anyone noticed that.

I went half down from the XX but I also went half up from my normal on the XX, so in the end I went tts on the XXl.
