Official: Revised Lebron IX Thread. MVP's revealed! MV's WILL have toddler sizes! 6/2

[royalflush1230]

I like the cut on these...I just don't know if these will look good with jeans in these pics. I hope they do man. I hope.

 

[never wear them]

hopefully the rest of the shoe is dope tho.... b/c that ankle cut is kinda strange.... but the regular fan will let it grow on em.

 

[mrdozo]

I wouldnt be surprised if the released colorways are dope since the design of the shoe appears to be lacking

 

[jst628]

the lion on the tongue was one of the best parts of the previous lebron shoes... smh for getting rid of it for his sig?

 

[sooperhooper]

I wonder what crazy colors/ nicknames will be released with these and go for 600+. I can see cats lining up now to get the "Burger Kings".

 

[emm23]

Should have retained the lion on the tongue...The signature only looks good on the back or the side of the shoes...

 

[bronle]

If we dont get full pics tomorrow then I'm totally convinced we waiting until December when they drop

 

[kingferic]

Yeah they should have kept the lion on the tongue.

Yea the lion would have been nice to sort of start an identity. But not a deal breaker. The sig on the tongue did look good on the vii though imo.
I'm also wondering if these are samples or if they're the finished product.  Looking at the tag on the bred 8's production finished in late june so it might be the same deal with these. Which might be why we didn't get pics until a few days ago. 

 

[mrswagtastic]

i'm diggin what we have seen so far.

 

[soledout23]

LeBron 8 were the best ones so far. Might have to pass on the 9 from what I see in the pics so far.

 

[airjordan jb23]

The inner outer (? Don't know how to describe it

) looks cool, just like the 7's & 8's... The outer & upper looks like it could be hit or miss though.

 

[billionaire swag]

Can't wait to see better pics.

I'll have to cop at least one pair.

 

[look like jesus]

hott

Not bad, but certainly not great.

Good colorways can do this design justice.

 

[bahunt8]

Shoes look nice. Looks like they didn't go OD with that pro combat inside. I like what I see.  
But they could get a bit more inspiring with the bred colorways now. Add a touch of yellow in there somwhere

 

[maxtempo96]

the silhouette reminds me of zo's old sig.i guess they really dropped the lion head this time around.

they're ok but definitely not worth retail.

 

[jersey sauce]

Hmmmm.....From a quick glance, this looks like a performance beast which is what I'd want. Dont need casual sneaks...

JS"

 

[downyboy]

ummm not feeling them right now.

 

[bronle]

Not as bad as I first thought but they will definitely have to grow on me, and I definitely won't be copping any of these at retail for 165

 

[lbj23navo]

Huge stepdown from the 7's & 8's.. These will strictly be for balling.

No shot am I paying retail for these either

 

[quanb24]

i like em from angle this pic was taken

 

[theking23]

I like them.Almost look like they took the hyper-fuse model and tweak it a little to make this shoe.Anyways I will be copping these and I think Lebrons shoes are becoming the best thing out right now due to their casual styling and the quality which is much better than JB.Move over Jordan,Lebron's shoe line is gaining on you.
