I hope they have some speckles or something on that sole

Not a fan of the white sock liner either

Saw the Aways in person today.  That Candy Apple/Metallic Red is SICKKKKK!  I was at Nike Lenox yesterday and saw a red on red iD pair, I def wanna iD an all red pair.
 
looks pretty photoshopped to me, like what is that in the background ,a walkway?? looks like identical sides if u look all the way back. must be some huge flipping shoes. idrk… confused. very clean color way though.
 
I agree on the AvM to Cannon comparison not being spot on based on the pics I used in the post but then again every new pic that comes out of the AvM's the sneaker looks different lol
View media item 637192View media item 637193View media item 637194There was even an Instagram video that was made of them where the armorposite looked a lot brighter and closer to the soles color in the sunlight, I more so draw my correlation from the color selections on both models being navy, the light shade of green and light orangish/pink (or whatever it is) being so close but I truly reserve judgement until I see them in person....
 
Blk & golds look aight but I hope they aren't the BHM pair.

Have we seen a color code that sounds like that pair?

I don't know what the meaning is behind the cannons concept but the AVMs do seem to be inspired by them.

Just different shades of blue, green and orange.
 
Once again, clear sole = pass for me. I'm too OCD for the yellowing.

Dude this was me to the exact with the clear soles, my best friend who is also just as deep into sneakers as me has changed me somewhat though after the endlessly repetitive "let it go, the clear sole makes it" sort of advice/preaching lol.. I can't be a hypocrite cuz I still feel that way but mostly only with Jordan's (retros I don't buy anymore anyways, the Jordan game has sucked since '06 IMO) but ESP with non-Jordan newer sneakers just enjoy them and embrace the yellowing.. If ya just can't do it I understand cuz I'm unbelievably picky with my pairs too but in some cases, not all, slight yellowing actually gives the sneaker character..
Anyways to make a recent example I passed on the pressure x for it's "glass clear" bottoms, not even smoked or tinted at all but super clear (nasty yellowing) and looking back I wish I could've gotten over that and grabbed em..
That's it I'm done lol

17 – Nike Lebron XI “BHM” 646702-001

Color code doesnt really say much tho

I think someone said theyre calling them the prohibitions

...It's one foot of a shoe, flipped around with a basic picture editing option...
 
There's a difference between two shoes LOOKING the same, and resembling each other, or reminding us of each other. I'd agree the Cannons don't LOOK like the AvM, but I definitely think they bear similarities and a subtle resemblance to each other. Of course, NT isn’t necessarily the best place to argue subtlety.


Could these be the BHM's? Saw a dude post in the JB thread that this years theme is Kings and queens and that they were going with black and gold. Would explain why these look higher quality than the other releases and why they have a lace lock

Thanks for passing that along......that would definitely an interesting concept for BHM.

Cannons were inspired by the 2010 Heat preseason camp being held at the military base in Fort Walton Beach FL.

I can't get past it, plus it saves me money. I see it as a win :lol
 
Nope


:lol statement sounds like a oxymoron

Dunkmans been using a different shade of green every year, no one calls that a stretch.

There have a been a ton of concord inspired shoes without the actual aspect behind why people call them concords.

Still no one says its a stretch.

My point is that it's not a stretch that a blue green and orangish Lebron reminds some people of the cannons.

I love the cannons and I'm not at all interested in the AVMs.

Still I see the connection between the two
 
What makes it a stretch is that you said basically yea they look alike but you acknowledged that they have 3 completely different colors
