Throw on a tee and some pants and let the shoes do the talking

This.

dont y'all know matchy matchy is all the rave, u gotta have the snapback, socks, shirt to go with the shoes, watch next we're gonna see pants made to match the design of the shoes lol, on another note i got to thinking bout how these could be an ext and i think its gonna be like the premuim foams type deal mixed with the x ext style so like a camo foam with denim upper loleither that or it'll b like the lifestyles with regular soles

yeah if had thrown a meme on that one i probably wouldve fell out the bed laughing harder than i did, but i respect dude for having his own uniqeness, wear what u want regardless of what people think, like dmx and rocco said "do u"

Rocked my King's Pride today and it's amazing at how MANY PEOPLE were looking at my shoes and just looking down at them as I passed by.  Holy crap.  Random people on the streets were telling me "THOSE are some SHOES! Right there!", no one ever says crap about my Kobes or Jordans. These Lebron XI's are probably the most complimented shoe I've ever gotten so far... I am in love with these so much more than the X.

Bring on the Forging Irons, Away and Black/Gold joints.

I should of went a half size up but I got my shoe trees in there to hopefully open up the toe box a bit.

Thanks. I didn't think of this. I just put my Alden shoe trees into them with extra padding on the left shoe. Like many others I found the tts length was perfect on this but I get squeezing/pinching on my left foot.

These are actually growing on me. Nice pick up.

Same here. I might pick up the KP's in the near future. I hated the XI's up until the last couple of weeks.

the crimson sole is the only thing bothering me...translucent red woulda been better imo

 

[loudiamondz]

the black / red (away) colorway are looking sexy.  but i think it's a shoe that you can cop later down the road discounted.   Too many black / red colorways this won't fly off the shelves on release day , but what do  I know.   I could be way off.   just my thoughts

 

[barbarianbob]

Haven't worn my KP's yet but my size 13's felt ok when I tried them on in the store, I wore a size 14 in the lbjX's so I hope I don't regret going tts

 

[kingjay718]

No word on a triple black colorway this season?

 

[1Cn9wL8dg3]

I believe it was mentioned earlier by JM that there wouldn't be a triple black this year.

LONG READ

let me tell yall how my experience was today. So i go to university mall here in tampa. Went to champs and tried to use this $10 coupon i had. They said they wont accept it for any release day items. I said release day was 2 weeks ago, wtf? They said by release day, we mean...any product that has a release date. AKA EVERYTHING WORTHWHILE. He said they dont even accept military discounts anymore for rd products smh.

Then i said whatever, ill pay $200, let me get the lebron 11s in a size 13. Kid goes to the back, then comes out with em. I sit down getting ready to try em on and then another employee LITERALLY runs over to us. He grabs the box out of my hands and checks the size really quick. Then he snatches em outta my hand grabs the other associate and says "lets take a walk really quick." and they both walked to the back room. Im sitting there wondering wtf.....

They both come back a minute later (without the shoes) and say "Im sorry, we cant sell you those. Theyre the wrong ones. Wrong size. We dont have any 13s left." Now i KNEW this muhf***a was lying cuz the box was already slid open IN MY HANDS! it was two size 13 lebrons right in my face when he snatched em! I stood up and left.

Then i went to finish line, they didnt have any 13s, nor did Jimmy Jazz, or Foot action. Foot Locker had one pair left so i took em. but the quality on these was SOOOOOOOOO Fed up! The left shoe looks like someone just stopped giving a f*** midway through making em. Glue is showing all on the mesh. Theres tiny dents in the toe box. A small hole under the armorposite too. SMFH!

Now champs corporate is trying to soothe the situation, and nike is getting a call tomorrow about the lack of quality of these $200 shoes!

edit: by the way, at finish line they showed me the aways in person. They were absolutely nothing special and the red is nowhere near as crazy as people were saying. They looked just as plain and bland as i originally thought.

You don't fight to give a company your business. I just went elsewhere and got em. Now I'll likely have a discount there AND he'll get in trouble. Chess, not checkers

that the 2nd crazy employee story, and worse than the employee that got mad about dude wanting to switch the insoles

You made the chess move in the end, but I can't imagine myself letting someone just run up on me and snatch stuff out of my hands like that. Especially some minimum wage employee.
