OFFICIAL 2022 LeBron 2 Retro Post: FINALLY

[bigHazy32]

Funny enough these shoes feel pretty good for squats haha. Like a combat boot.

 

[bigHazy32]

Damn I just got my pair from Packer. These joints are narrow af. Idk if they’ll break in enough . My toes are getting crammed. Went TTS.

They look amazing

My feet were hurting pretty badly after shooting around. I’m not sure it’s gonna stretch out much wider, the shape is just narrow.

Worst case scenario we bring it to a Nike store for a return without receipt. They will give a $210 gift card since that’s how much the shoe is selling for on Nike.

I go TTS on everything, have since I reached my adult size… including OG 2s. These were for hoop so if snug, I like that, but these are way too tight. Whole toe box is narrow af IMO.
I’ve pretty much skipped the Lebron retros except the mvp 7 which I went tts and they’re good, and sprite 8s which I saw people said go up 0.5. I did on those and they fit great (for casual).
I wear 13 so going up 0.5 is usually not an option.

I never owned the og 2. Is the toe box on this one more narrow than the original? I feel like the originals were somewhat wide based on memory of how they looked.

For real? I’ll definitely do that lol.
I’ll be near an outlet tomorrow, wonder if that will work at an outlet?

It does. Did it about 3 weeks ago for the Maccabis that Creme took a month to deliver.

Don’t they usually check your “Nike pass”?

 

[tuxedo1208]

It’s a no receipt return so it won’t be on your account. You can only get Nike credit so they are not too concerned about where they came from.

Noted…that’s not bad at all considering you’ll most likely be buying more at NDC anyways.

Yep exactly. It’ll be store credit but I’m sure we will find a way to spend that later. Lol basically flipped $115 into $210, get a new pair of lebron 20s instead.

Might be better to do it at a main Nike store. You run the risk of the shoe being on discount at the outlet and affecting your return credit lol

Interesting.

TTS has worked fine for me, I know other’s have had different experiences. Length wise is fine, the only place I experienced any tightness is right here until I broke them in.

I think TTS works well for this shoe as well. But admittedly, I did take out the insoles for the first wear because it did feel tight in that exact area for me as well. Hopefully with more wear, they’ll break in for me as well.

Can we talk about how nice the insoles are? Can’t remember the last pair of shoes I had that came with premium insoles!

First time rocking these strapless, I like feel just wish the tongue’s were higher

Love how these look. Just hope the tightness goes away with break in.

It took me two wears and I was good

It does look pretty wide and stretched out in your pic! I Might have to use thinner socks than elites with them

Yea they were tied loosely if that makes sense.
Didn’t pull them super tight

Are yours for casual wear or for hoops? I wanted to use mine for hoops, would have gone up half size for casual definitely.

Definitely casual but I wouldn’t mind seeing how they feel on court. I think I’d be fine with my 11 because I don’t like my shoes too snug.

Man I hope everyone stays the same on these. Easily grab two on sale, might even grab three if I can get them for the right price.

That LeBron 2 LX makes me nervous. Might raise them $20-$30 on us.

 

[andfattoo]

Ill pass on the animal print, i may get them on disco.

 

[1212theory]

went with half size up in case i end up balling in these, but they do seem smaller. 10.5 AZG2 vs 10 AM97 heel to toe is about same length.
