I still think these have potential.

Like i said on twitter... Those pics sold me.. The Leather makes the shoe WAYYY better than the Nubuck/suede... Cant wait to see more c/ws

 

[fullmetal]

imo, without the Lebron name attached to these, I think no one would be giving these a second look. But someone always says this about a sig shoe and to each his own

.

The Cavs wear blk shoes for road games when they wear the wine/red uniforms, part of their color scheme is wine/red, so it's not rocket science bro...

i'd rather read 5 pages of "i don't like lebron shoes because they don't fit my game" instead of "kobe> lebron because john wall had a bad half in lebrons. and boy, that ronnie turiaf sure has taken his game to new heights while wearing kobes."

c'mon son.

if you don't like a shoe because you honestly don't like it, leave it at that. trying to justify your feelings by posting something crazy is just

.

also 

@ the 7's being too heavy to ball in. really?

and i've seen countless amounts of people balling in head to toe kobe outfits who [kobe] couldn't throw the ball in the ocean if they were sitting in a boat [/kobe]. that easily goes both ways.

They look so Monsterous in white. I seriously still think these are way better than the VIIs. These actually have a design to em. The 7s were just blehh to me...

I don't know, LeBrons always grow on me but right now i'm its just kinda

, the white ones do look better though and his shoes always look better in the limited cw's.

[swingshot]

Leather looks better....... but that's coming from a pretty weak starting point.

IMO, Decent colorblocking will make (barely) or break this shoe.

 

[lebanesesneakerfiend]

i think this shoe has potential

THIS if you're reading JP.  Stick to the leathers and perhaps mesh.  I'm liking the design though.

 

[bigtimejerky]

these remind me of AJ VIIs...

Im glad to hear that they feel more comfortable than the VII's and have more ankle support. From a far they look really good, but up close the suede is really holding back the black/white/red cw.

exactly how i feel. colorways better be point.

  

 

[dj236]

I'm def digging these, just not the blck/wht/red cw (mostly because of the suede)

That pebbled leather looks great on these

The VII gave me blisters and I didn't feel the Max Air at all, whereas my Air Total Max Uptempos felt like matresses under my feet.

great.......another all white nike most likely won't release. Lebron line is full of fail. That leather looks extra good too.
