Sorry if it sounded stupid but I'm pretty sure people out there who read NT might have purchased a pair of these fakes already. There's probably overseveral thousand people who read NT a day and not one person might bought these? Or are they afraid of people laughing at them for getting fakes? I don'tcondone it but these fakes are the closest thing to what we might get. Someone had to gotten a pair of these and tried it..

I say, if you can't afford a certain pair of shoes, then stay in your lane and get your money right.
Until then, don't try to stunt with fakes.

Rock, you think LeBrons will be retroed? And if so you think they'll have a lukewarm reception at firstlike the first Jordan retroes?

I think...well know to some extent when they tried to Retro the First gens in that Camo color.. Nike Basketball almost lost their minds.. lol.. cause theydidn't give the go ahead...
But its goin to be a while.. but when Mark Parker gives that go ahead and Nike Basketball can't do anything about it.. they are going to get Funky with it.
Of course they will do some OG colorways...but they are going to obviously offer the folks what they couldn't get first go round....
As long as there's an HoH around they can test waters before going wide scale.. but I think Retroing First Gens or even IIs right now would be a hugemsitake because they would sit..
As many would like to believe NT makes up a small fraction of the buying public but does in my opinion represent many demo's from the public (the ones whoaren't Hypebeasts anyway)
So for NTers you have HOHs... for everyone else.. Footlocker Champs Et al.

I'll take it back.. But let me ask this question, these fakes had to come from the same factory as the real one. As years goes by, these fakes became asreal as the real one. Maybe the stitching or color are different but they are almost identical. I did not purchase a pair of fakes or ever in my life. AllI'm saying is until they release, the one that's surfacing online is the closest we seen.

i get you, but the thing is, nike diverts a lot of time and energy into QC of its product as it relates to performance standards. it really makesno sense in gleaning anything from some variant units aside from how the final product will look like. ostensibly they may be the same, but that's aboutit. the air bag for the VII is actually a new type of bag, slightly different from the usual airmax bag, wider in base and more akin to a retooled 360 bagsince there will be a hgher displacement of phylon foam in favor of air.

I don't know how I feel about these. These certainly don't look like they shoes be sig shoes, at least I don't think so.

Crazy right? I love all of the Lebron's, owned every pair since the II's and I still think the III's were the best and most comfortable, but thesemight be coming for that #1 spot. I'm hoping the cushioning on these doesn't make me feel like I am jumping off of a pillow when I hoop. Some of themax air shoes do that.

And i've never liked a LeBron shoe this early.

cut down in size? or weight? i mean as far as weight goes, yea it can me lighter
but the size? i dont think that's a prob, i think retooling the forfoot straps, and the main strap, even possibly removing the main strap IMO....i mean yeayou can tuck it in...but what guy likes to tuck it in?

Hey Daaz... In order for that shoe to come down in weight it would need in my opinion need to be brought down in size... unless you go with a less dense positematerial.. but then you are messing with materials like Fake makers use..
As they have used on those Foam Lites... ewwww... lol....
And no... no Tucking.. lol

So that's one tuck, and one no-tuck.
