[captainsneakerhead23]

How many people would have gone after the Lebron IX this year if the II or III or even IV in a lighter sleeker version had been released?  It doesnt make smart business sense for Nike Basketball to let that happen .... but yes..it will be a consideration if he win's a Chip.. perhaps a Package.. But I wont lie.. if Bron won a Chip.. I would have LOVED to have seen a VII or VIII Package... and some Retro Releases.

Thats just me.. but I wanted to share

Great point. Lebron's sig is just starting to break out and releasing retros would only break the momentum. Once we see sales dip for his sig shoes, retros will be brought into the discussion again.
Again shout out to JP for bringing the Lebron line back to life after a few years of struggling. It only shows how talented the dude is at what he does.

IMO the LeBron line NEVER struggled... Just people weren't very fond of it... I've purchased every LeBron since the Zoom Generations... Most people were just stuck on Jordan because that was the early years of the Retros... I Grew Up On The LeBron Line So I Appreciate It... I grew up on the Jordan Retro Line.... If I did have OG Jordans it was 15 and up but by that time he was out the League so it didn't really count... This Is Just My Opinion

 

[jordansneakerhead23]

They need to do the crimson first game air zoom generations for sure

 

[geoff2005]

Jordan was still in the league when they started retroing his shoes. Please read my post near the end of the previous page for more info.

 

[jumpmanpro97]

[bawayfrombless]

Right because of course every player that has had their shoes retroed have won Championships. Oh Wait????

 

[1212theory]

it seems too early for a retro dont you think? maybe once lebron's line really takes off, then we will see retros. by take off, i mean doing what jordan brand is doing, not just having a "soldier" model outside of the yearly models. and those slippers dont count!

Jordan retired after the '92-93 season and came back to the Bulls in '95. Then he retired again after the '98 season. He didn't come to the Wizards until the 2001-2002 season and retired from them after the following season. They started doing retros in '93, while he was still with the Bulls.

 

[mcgregor triangle]

Long overdue, IMO. Would love another pair of AZG's to hoop in (they were GREAT) for that. Do you remember the camo color way that never released?

 

[mcgregor triangle]

Oh yeah, and II's all day! Best cushioned shoe ever!

statement is misleading considering retros were a tremendous flop in 1993 and weren't done again till 1999 when he was out of da league..again

Three is heel and forefoot.

Not sure any triple stacked zoom shoes exist at all.?

 

[dauldierce]

i dont think they'll retro anything crazy.

 

[cmore501]

ninjahood, you are right about retros flopping back then. However, that still doesn't take away the fact that they did start doing retros then. They also released the low IIs and the white/cement IIIs between then and 1996, as well. And, actually, the ones came out in 1994 and not '93. I just found out that out. My mistake.

triple stacked zoom doesnt exist.  but i do think the 3's have full length zoom.  the plastic that extends down basically the whole shoe is the zoom unit.
