did they really just make up a random story because he's not with the heat?

cmon nike we see you

Black and reds are nice. Need black laces like everyone else said.

How easy is it to dye soles? 

Very easy.. tons of tuts on youtube, you can either use a paint brush or q tip if you wanna move slow and steady, or you can use glassware with a dunking method. i'm going to go paint brush/q tip myself on some beater Oreos i grabbed for a project

I'm feeling those and need a new pair of bred shoes, but just because they're black/red doesn't necessarily mean its a Heat cw, he been rocking breds his whole career

 

[The7onius]

Someone with photoshopped skills black the laces on the breds, I think the laces should be black and red personally.

Also if a PS skilled person could change the posite on the Christmas pair to all black and/or all white

 

[dwoodactennis]

Had high aspirations for the court visions, those are pretty disappointing, not much creativity there.  Sure looks like a Heat away colorway to me.

Lebron 12 "Pizza Hut"

The latest colorway of the LeBron 12 is inspired by Lebron’s legendary work ethic at the local Akron Pizza Hut, while he was in high school. LeBron James' pizza ingredients always showcased an extraordinary blend of cheese, premium meats, and explosive spices of the highest level in the fast food industry. His rare pizza-making skill set requires innovative footwear tailored to the specifications of hand tossing a pie, or taking the delivery route at a moments notice.

I'm pretty sure the shade of red changed when he went to Miami.
When he was with the cavs, it's was pretty much Crimson. I think it went to more of a variety red when he went to the heat.

That said, i can't tell if these are Crimson or not in the pics

You're right I never thought about it like that, but yea it's hard to tell from the pics

These remind me of the pressure X's

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

may go after the black and reds instead of the datas

I only noticed because I remember being happy when he went to Miami since his shoes started being a more "normal" red since I barely have any Crimson type of clothes at all.


On that note.... I still can't believe nike hasn't brought back the bday lebrons. Of all of these colors nike drops to milk his shoe, they just don't give up the goods no more.

No you won't. You are only a pinky toe in on the bron 12s so far

Exactly I really wish I could go to a meeting when they sit down and think of colorways in inspiration because it totally dropped.
Man I still wish I had my birthday IV's/V's

 

[norwaydre]

Those black/reds are kinda tough

[201steez]

black/red pair is easily my new favorite colorway. Problem is I have too many shoes that are black/red already lol. 

 

[dark steel]

If only those laces were black 

Would grab em with a hefty disco tho...

 

[serstylz2]

ppl are turned off from the CVs due to red laces and knowing it'd be a full day process to swap them to black laces hahah

Don't feel bad dude I almost believed it at first as well

It seemed made convincing, perfectly worded to sound exactly how Nike would write it up an all :x

Then I read it again and said to myself no way in hell this can actually be serious!
