THE REVISED LEBRON 8 THREAD Vol. No Ring This Year

last time i checked Wale wasnt a niketalk member... so hw cme everytme someone got to post his pic here so people cn hate on dude.... come on now! this cant be life! just saying....
 
no hate for Wale at all. i think he's a tight rapper and his style/shoe game is pretty tight. i just thought it was funny that some NTers will change their point of view about a shoe just because they saw him with them on.

reference the celebrities rocking heat post or turn this post back a few pages to where he had the SBs on and the solars.

i just thought it was funny.

Lol he actually is a NTer, his username is iLoveHipHop43 or something, search it Anywhoo I was reading an interview with DJ Clark Kent on some sneaker site and he said the Denims are actually called the James deans, and that he does not control whether or not 112s release, that's Nikes decision. He also said that the only thing that may change in theb112s colorways down the line is the color of the elephant print.

low 8s are great also.

I agree 100% with you. I have the all black v2s, entourages,vets and xmas. Theyre the most comfy shoe I have. And I have about 60pairs of nikes. That says alot about these.

The lows are cool but the colors are too similar to the highs.
Solars = xmas
black v2 lows= black v1s
Sprites = entourages

comfort has no equal
 
Gotti there's no age cap on your love for kicks my man.

People use to try to go in on dudes over 40 in NT but I'm 39 and I challenge you to answer how old some of the best designers are?

I will be rockin grown man suits of course as needed but best believe if I'm still doing tv and radio at 50 I'm busting out the tightest kicks possible.

I won't care what the new age NTErs think either.
 
Well said, as long as I can walk I'm wearing a fresh pair, scratch that, I'll zip past in my hoover round wearing a pair of SB's.

Oh i never said age was anything. I will be rocking fresh kicks for as long as I can, no matter what age I am. Its just a shame 80% of the week I'm in dress shoes because of work. But best believe when I'm in Kix I show out no matter what!

And Rock you 39? You look nothing over 27, my g, seriously. Props to you.
 
Sad to hear that no more 8's are releasing

i dont think he was going in on our age either... but i think that if you can remember the good days when there were only a few colorways of each jordan a year and if you remember when you could walk into a shoe store and get them almost any time. if you can remember when most people though a shoe that was 85 bucks let alone 100< then you are a true purist. i remember when this thing wasnt a game. there were no resellers. just dudes who loved a fresh pair of kicks. those days are long gone. that is why i still buy kicks but...

i dont collect anymore
i dont go back toget shoes i missed
i dont pay resellers past a certain point
i dont buy duplicates
i wear ALL of my ****!

those are my rules
 
yea but as time goes, things change, things change.
And I wear all of my kix EXCEPT my DMP 11/6 pack.....I just can't do it after beating the pair i got back in 06...smh...I didn't know what i had then.

Thanks bruh I appreciate that. Nucca's just trying to maintain lol. Naw I didnt think you were goin in on us older refined NTers. I was just saying some of the youth of yesterday wouldn't understand that shoes and the love for them never go away. I won't be wearing Dexters or strappy sandals with socks when I'm older. I'll be sporting some Zoom Mule Easy slides for real lol..I learned the hard way when movers "lost" all my my kicks when I moved back to dc from Beaverton that I'll always wear every shoe I get free on discount or retail. F that. Just glad I had insurance

Agreed, and I have thought about copping them simply because of the yellow.  Wish they had used that color more- hopefully they will moving forward.  Also, re: above post on Xmas v2s, I don't think you will find them DS for less than 200 or so. figure 200-300 max I would say.  I think they are one of the best Bron 8s. 

My top 3:

Bred v1s . Need to grab a second
Xmas v2s
Entourage v2s = ASG v2s ( which I regret passing on- would probably swap my CG v2s for em if I could )

No SBs for me.  Had them and got rid of em.  Could not see wearing them on the regular.  Besides, now we got retro blue foams which are just as hot IMO.
 
For those looking for the bred v1s, get a sku or UPC and go to foot action to do a stock locate...the local foot action here has plenty of pairs available....$109.99. I picked up an 11 a few days ago..
