WRONG!!! There's no such thing as too much purple.

But seriously, you want grey & purple? Basically the SLH 8s all over again?

The SLH 9s are straight exactly how they are. More pairs for people that really want them.

This. They couldn't have made these more 90's Hornets colors. I didn't like last year's pair at all. I like these, but I don't really like purple. GREAT shoe for the people who like all purple and teal. I'm not a fan personally, so I'm not copping whether or not they are limited/worth anything. If you guna do a SLH shoe, do it right like this one.

On that same note. Colorways really saved this shoe. I wasn't a fan of this shoe until all the colorways dropped. Somehow I ended up with 8 pairs of Lebron IX's, something I never thought would happen...

Pretty much. Got to check them out last weekend at FTL and they did absolutely nothing for me. Of course this is only my opinion, but the SLH 8s >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> SLH 9s.

Edit:

@ "summit house"

 

[brewc1ty]

those could really be the elites...the midsole is different, the tongue is different, and the lace pattern is different.. yeah it looks pretty much the same but maybe thats the point.. just a thought. Im not saying i think those are the elites but everyone just says those are the hyperdunks even tho they have a number of things different than the hyperdunks

 

[bigbrandon]

I don't think those are elites and I thought I read somewhere that JP said those weren't Elites but if the color blocking is similar to the Kobe elite is with the black gold cw I think I'll have a hard time passing on them even at $250. Don't know if it's just Marqueesole's pics but the color blocking on the Kobe 7 elite is perfect.

 

[bigsupa]

got my DM's really not sure if im upset bout not getting the halo or not. swoosh should have stayed silver but at least the 3m is there...

Yeah....I seen that "summit house" comment too. Wasn't even gonna say nothing but......

 

[The_Isomotion31]

My wife surprised me with some dunkmans last night and got a chance to ball in them. Pretty nice, I didn't feel to high off the ground and the cushioning was welcome especially after going for a run earlier that day and the court we play on although indoor not very forgiving.

 

[nimhet]

I'm still working on my collection. Got the Chinas, Big Bangs and Dunkmans. Swingmans and Christmas being delivered tomorrow. Looking for some Freegums at a good price and then SLH and then I"m done. This year's LBJ line destroyed the Kobe's.

somebody on sole collector said that that the wear test sample for the hyperdunk 2012... sure looks like it:

 

[mrdozo]

A quick question for the room......do the miami nights fit the same as cannons?
I hear some of these colorways dont all fit the same. Which is illogical.

 

[bigbrandon]

^I don't get what your trying to say? Yeah those are the 2012 hyperdunks. What about the lebron elites? Are you saying its the same shoe or what?

 

[promethod man]

The more I look/rock them, the more I love the simpler CW's. Personally I LOVE my Freegums and Dunkmans the most. Swingmans are nice.

IMO so far:

China
Cannon
Big Bang
Freegum
Dunkman
Swingman
Mango
Miami Nights

 

[natenate04]

i need them free gums and the U of Miami joints now. Those Big Bangs gonna have to wait a lil minute.

 

[fog]

The SLH's just doesn't do it for me. The color arrangement seems suspect..

 

[parry36]

anyone have a pic of red laces from the xmas 9s on the swingmans???

 

[carolina finest]

In my defense I uploaded those pics from sneakerfiles.com and they are really legit. Rarely wrong. But my question would be. Do you see the similarities in the tongue and air bubble? Only difference is the air bubble is shown in the front instead of being hidden on current model. Also it makes perfect sense that how the 8s looked and the transition to the 8 p.s. So I notice the trend and btw the 8 p.s. Is still siting in stores in my area. Don't kill the messenger lol ty rugu
