*OFFICIAL* NIKE LEBRON 16

[veetskeet]

Over analyzing, they are just shoes...

Shoes.

True. But as an enthusiast of the product and player, it's fun to have these types of discussions with others. Carry on with more LeBron 16 news ladies and gents.

Wondering when the next LeBron Watch shoes will be coming. There should be 2-3 more, correct?

Remaining Lakers games on national TV are:
3/14 vs Raptors
3/26 vs Wizards
3/27 vs Jazz
4/2 vs Thunder
4/4 vs Warriors

with there being less lebronwatch pairs this year compared to last year, I doubt we see a lebronwatch that doesn't fall on a national TV game

What's left? The Agassi/Lava pair and what else?

 

[tupac003]

Bid got accepted for the SB Blues.

 

[watermelondeity]

medicine ball, remix, and four horsemen iirc

 

[greekgator]

Really hoping the 4H pair has the horse logo...

I think the remix will be hot.

Medicine ball are an easy pass for me and don't think the lavas will be good...

How much?

 

[hitman243]

Is it 350v2 bad?

 

[hitman243]

Is it 350v2 bad?

those V2 seemed tighter to me, but the knit stretched over time a little. I don't believe these will stretch or conform.

I take it you went TTS?

 

[hitman243]

I take it you went TTS?

yes

sucks to not be able to try on shoes before dropping more than 2 bills on them

 

[greekgator]

Consensus was the Safari fit .5 up...

I agree tho, I hate that too.

 

[tigo0240]

14 or bust for me...might just skip the safaris.

 

[ModernMade]

Yeah my safaris I grabbed a 10.5 and 11. Usually 10.5 but this 11 feels right.

With LeBron getting injured this year, and the scheduling and promotion of the 16 being thrown off by his time off, do people still think that the 16>15?

Many things I consider:
-He had arguably his single most dominant season/postseason and most clutch playoff performances in the 15, making it to the Finals when he shouldn't have made it that far. Compare that to missing significant time in the 16 and not making the playoffs or having a .500 record this year.
-LeBron Watch comes out for the for the first time, including a few PEs of LeBron Watch series (South Beach, Red Griffey, Orange Air Max, etc.) creating hype for the line.
-LeBron Watch lagging behind and already repeating a shoe with a different colorway (SB white vs SB blue). I know they did the white Diamond Turf then Red Diamond Turf later on to finish it off, but that was after all the colorways had already come out before remixing any previously released inspiration.

These are just a couple of the things I have noticed/believe to be true. Obviously, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I’m gonna say the 15’s were better all around. Meaning the look, style and colorways. I think they had a bigger impact because many weren’t expecting much from Lebron’s.

Now as far as actually playing basking ball in them, I’ll have to go with the 16’s.

Yeah that’s how I felt as well with the left shoe. Maybe it will loosen up a bit with more wears.

 

[peakkicks]

That’s how my WTT pair was killing top of my toes tts so I went up half size in the safaris and they feel so comfortable

 

[hitman243]

unfortunately, I ordered these off stockx before the sizing recs came in. the insole seems pretty thick so I am hoping they will compress over time or I can just swap out for a thinner insole. the length is actually TTS, but there's just not enough space. do all the 16s fit similarly? I am interested in the medicine balls as well.

 

[tupac003]

How much?

285

 

[Magic33]

Safari 16 lows are the best looking LeBron ever

Change my mind

You want us to change your bad taste?

 

[redrum3281]

for those that are saying that the Outkast influence isn't there, well you'd alctually be kinda wrong but yeah i get it that no one cares that's a diff story

notice the Outkast crown

it's not a perfect replica and if nike did that they'd have to pay royalties but we know that ain't Lebron's crown

unfortunately this won't be shoe of the year unlike the album it's inspired by and while everyone is dissing the idea, at least nike's actually trying again, this takes me back the days of the 10

 

[alchemist iq]

 

[redrum3281]

nah i jus the vision

 

[cntrolldsbstnce]

Na

nah i jus the vision

It's pretty clear to see, too. Seeing as how I also graduated HS that year and bought SB/TLB, which is one of my favorite Kast albums, I think I'm gonna cop and stash when they hit below retail.
