I wonder why every time a new pair of Lebron X's surface they have to be "the best color way " ever out of the whole line? Why can't they just be a nice color way?

In looking at the pic of the "Possible" elite, the upper looks to have changed as the vent panels are different. The tongue, although a different looking material, looks more like the more flexible version they put in the 9 elite. I didn't like the 9 tongue, but the 9 elite tongue wasn't much better and usually creased when I sinched up the shoe to ball.
I hope they come off with something wild and actually put color to the CF...that would be sick!

Funny part about this is that Mache did similar color blocking styles to what the Elite will look like without having a clue. A certain designer was amazed that he replicated the blocking and its even funnier because Mache put his stuff out first so to many who don't know the backstory it may seem like Nike jacked him for the idea even when these had been done way before he put out any of his stuff.

You guys gotta remember even if its similar that doesn't mean it was derived from that. Nike is already making moves toward the LeBron 12 at this point. This shoe has been done for months, just a major coincidence.

These Dolphins were like a limited GR, well at least it felt that in my area. Hardly any stores had em, and most ran out of sizes already or didn't even have my size on release date. Footlocker, eastbay, etc ran out of certain sizes. The only place really to get them with a FSR is on NDC right now.

If Kobeoverbron can post info about the upcoming XI release in October, then you already know they are underway on the LBXII. Those elites are nothing but a gimmick to an already gimmick'd out shoe.
Are the X's comfy? Hell yes. Are they meant for everyone though, no. And I get the fact these are built for LeBron, but LeBron is an animal that nobody else on earth comes close to as far as combination of size, speed, and power. In a way, having the greatest athlete and a sig designed for him is a double-edged sword: on one hand you've got the best and offer him "the best" with the new tech and all that, yet on the other side of it all you're trying to sell to masses a shoe designed for one player, and one player that is not like any other player physically.
Oh well, bring on the XI lol.

Even with the Lebron X Easter Lows being so disappointing...they're still the best looking shoe out of this pack

I'm not grabbing a single low. I don't care about colors. They're just ugly. Those alleged elites look nice tho. But if they have a price hike forget about it. 180 is already too much

It's more like a no-brainer, like different colored vents, that Nike's refused to do until now

If the lows had the same vis zoom i'd be on board 100%. Throwing in old tech though makes me not give a damn.
The Kobes though.

The Kobe's are designed to look like a tie dyed/multi colored Easter egg so kind of have something to do with Easter. I do wish they got more creative with the lows though they just seem kind of bland to me

True that colorway is lazy, I probably wouldn't even cop if they were the regular Lebron X
