By no means am I wealthy or balling by any measure but that $50 increase means absolutely NOTHING to me. I'm still excited and will go full fledge for the FI.
Wish Nike would've did a box made of something like cast iron, laser etched with something championship related. Would've been heavy as heck but, do one of each size at 5 major Niketown's only would've been cool...
The outcry on a $50 increase when most of us have $5,000+ sitting in our closets unworn and a handful of iD's, I mean really.

Right!....all the talk about the FI since pic 1 appeared....all the posts about how people are going to wait to cop KP's -Aways on discount or even pass all together but most been saying they are all in on RD for the FI.....there was no indication of any of these early CW's costing more than the 200$....last year we had all three price tags for each model of the lebrons releasing before any shoe dropped so yea I believe nike set the price once they saw how popular this cw is....I mean how long does it take for someone to slap a sticker on a box..its so easy even a caveman can do it

Terracotta Warriors with the lacelocks I made. I have some made for the King's Pride (Mint colored) as well, I just haven't gotten around to take pictures yet. This was a quick shot before work.

Stratasys Dimension SST 1200es 3D Printer and then an air eraser to smooth it out.
Friend is studying abroad at Tsinghua University in Beijing. Since he has a Chinese address and bank card, he was able to proxy a pair for me.

TBH the Nike + in the shoes were always a gimmick to bump up the price. I'm willin to bet right now, only 10 ppl or less on NT that has a + shoe don't even use it

The price increase blows no doubt, and its not like the price isn't already high enough, but unfortunately it is not going to ween me away from buying them. If they were all $250 i wouldn't be copping (same reason i haven't been buying foams lately) but for a "special" pair here n there? yeah i definitely want them and will not let this stop me. I as well have a 20% coupon and hopefully I'm able to cop online. if so ill use it and pile up the order with some IDs at the same time, to capitalize on that discount.
With that said, bring em on!

$250 for the FI huh??? So, I guess Nike gonna run w/ it now...Any popular nickname shoe gets hit w/ the increase. So, I guess I'll try to prepare for the All Star kicks to be $250 as well...Hopefully they're ugly and I won't give a damn

Same boat as well...Like I said I really want the FI, so I guess I'll be passin on the Gammas, which I know they're gonna sit for a while. But, that 250 hurts like hell when Christmas right around the corner. I'm not tryna look like Scrooge in the family

Allstar game is in New Orleans this year. Maybe they'll do a Mardi Gras Theme to kicks. A GOLD lebron 11 would be sick.
