THE LEBRON 13 THREAD *Elites released**Command Force 6/11/16

[romcadoo]

Is it me or does this design seem like a pretty "run-of-the-mill basketball shoe" compared to the bold design of the 11s and 12s? 


Jason and his team should've taken some risks with this design since it paid off so well for the past 2 models... Maybe Lebron wanted them to focus on the performance aspect more though.

They are taking a risk now these look horrible

I don't see the strap either.

One more shot, lighting still isn't good enough to really see them 

Really like this colorway.

Team Red and Orange

Have a feeling it will be the first release and will be the 13 KP and NSRL.

Looks like we will actually be getting Cleveland colors this year

Am I the only one who doesnt see a strap

i like what ive seen so far just thinking about these and some blue jeans

I did a horrible job in paint to help you brahs out

There seems to be some sort of stray or band running across the shoe. Notice there is a posite section on top of the laces

But until we see high quality pics, we won't know what it is

 

[All Ready]

hopefully those arent the 13s

they're horrible

 

[nrmancruso]

The colorway remind me of these

 

[JPS]

those soldier 9s look pretty cool

I wouldn't call this a strap as much as an evolution of the megafuse. It looks to me like a foam cushion embedded into the fuse to take pressure off the area of the foot where the tarsal and metatarsal bones meet in the forefoot. This section seams to have the same sheen as the ankle section of the the shoe. In my opinion, due to the advanced nature of this fuse, if I am correct, I am lead to believe this is the "Elite" version of the 13.

Only my opinion.

[danilobotejr8]

Just my imagination

 

[mouerf]

these are bad, look like a soldier pair 

 

[nonstopdahitman]

It's crazy how much i don't like them so far.

means I'll probably have 15+ pair

 

[datboi81]

I like those shorts.

The shoes look horrendous, which means I'll probably love these just like I did with the 9s

 

[Olympus]

Everyone preparing themselves for the turn.

I'm not 100% sure myself that it is a strap from those blurry pics. But what myself and some others are seeing is a thin like strap that overlaps the laces towards the mid area of the 13's (if these shoes are officially the 13's) similar to the strap seen on the Lebron & solider. But again it may or may not be, just throwing speculations out like everyone else.

From what I'm seeing, the 13 design looks real sloppy. I know I have to wait until more definitive pictures come out, but man what is that.

I'm seeing 3 leaf clovers and figure 8s. Maroon that kinda fades to black. The shape is real funny too.

It really looks like a lot of those generic shoes you see at Ross.

 

[liger420]

The cloverleaf if you will looks just like it would on the side of IX.

Yup, it looks to be the same pattern just inverted.

1 pair for the collection (on sale) and that's it. They look at cats buying multiple pairs and they don't even bother with the designs anymore.

Just keep the signatures inline with the generic Nike stuff so that not much is needed in the way of production tooling and call it a day.

 

[kingsin]

the big 3 are taking another nose dive this year

 

[dwoodactennis]

I think @BarbarianBob  needs to get up in here and make one of his "lists."  

Turn will be monumental on these.

Kyrie, PG-13 and Harden (I thought I read Harden somewhere) getting sigs this year so at least there will be more Nike Signature Options.

Speaking of which, what happened to the LBJ13 being called "Zoom Trece" lol.

 

[MoneyAmeer]

Zoom trece is Paul George

 

[picasso swerve]

I like.

May be a pre-production model anyways, im a fan of the higher cut personally.

Liking the feedback so far....I can smell the Sports Authority discounts from here
