Nike LeBron 8 Retro

[rafbuddy]

SB's will be interesting, because of the HWC. People obviously thought there was resell in HWC, probably because Nike had them as draw. But if you're a 8-11 you're pretty much taking a loss on StockX, and pairs aren't in hand yet.

That's the annoying part about it, because you're paying fees plus taxes for something that somebody didn't want in the first place. Glad I was able to get a pair for retail.

The tax thing really irks me. Tax on top of resale is such a cash grab

Yea the government some double dipping mother****ers. Taking tax on original purchase and resale.

It’s that damn blue suede. If you rub it with your finger it will be on that as well.

Yeah I noticed that too

Cant wait for the SB's. I still have my 2010 pair. Im copping another whether retail or off stock x and goat. lol

 

[sergei]

broke these out with my little dude for good juju

Lewiup here.

And wish they’d retro the IX and X. I’d be okay with a XI retro but they need to make those a 2.5 inch more toe room lol.

I mean. I dig the SBs and all, but I don't understand that hysteria behind them. Svsm, hwc > SB imo

And not saying they are wack.

I agree. They are nice but the HWC colors are better the SBs have hype on them that's all

Oh so beautiful can't wait

 

[g-time]

NEED!

 

[watermelondeity]

Mine are the same way. Laces too..

people thought I was joking about the suede bleeding on these 8 retros...

 

[witnesskb24]

I saw someone saying the print around the lace holes is different from the original? Anyone got both to confirm? Looks the same to me

IDC either way was curious

 

[bestintheworld]

I need them south beaches. I have different goals these days and I am slowing down significantly on sneakers but these are an absolute must. I owe it to my 16 year old self back in 2010 lol.

First V1s I had were 1/2 up then when I got my second pair in life. I found that TTS was better for me. Going 1/2 size up had a weird crease in them.
Will say when TTS there’s certain socks I can not wear.

I never had a pair of VIII before. Though, I was surprised that retro VII fit TTS, I was aiming for 1/2 with VIII. Unfortunately, I had to settle for TTS (10.5), 1/2 is definitely the way to go.
Everyone feet is different but TTS is some wild talk to me with these HWC VIII!

2 pairs but happy with 1

I’m trying not to get excited for the sbs because I don’t want the disappointment to sting that bad

SBs gonna be the LBWatch this month?

SBs gonna be the LBWatch this month?

I highly doubt it. If they are releasing in Europe already it's most likely not the LW pair. The way Nike been doing us on the LW we probably gonna get some whack Lebron 13 for this months pair.

Nike wants ALL the money for SB’s.. No watch or raffles I bet..

In my opinion Nike has diluted the SB cw since they’ve released the SB color schemes on various Nike models it’s not the same anymore has having it on one particular shoe instead of many

In a way I kinda agree with you but for me it doesnt take away from the 8s or the 15s. If they actually released the 15s I'd be on those like white on rice.

Good point and a reason I dont think the SB will be limited. They gotta make up money from no more kobes too. Like I've said before I think most that want these will be able to get them. If Nike learned anything from the Grinches it's that they need to make these plentiful. They will easily sell out. I can't think of a more popular or famous GR release Lebron than the SB 8.

 

[rafbuddy]

hope nike makes plenty. everyone should eat even my nephew

 

[WASHED KING]

I need 2 pairs. This is the shoe that got me on NT. I remember being a freshman in high school browsing NT watching you guys wear your pairs. (Before I eventually ended up joining 3 years later)

1 pair to wear, 1 to hold.

I won't front, I've never been on South Beach VIII like that, I will try to cop strictly for collection purposes.
