the pics aren't very conclusive almost look foamish in the last pick. But still in wait and see mode. Coping a ton of LBJ 7s now before i can't anymore
 
Can't go wrong with an all black pair. I think i'll wait for those. The white midsoles on the first cw kills it for me.
 
The leather makes them look alot better imo and the all blacks do kind of look foam-%@$. Can we get some lebron elite socks next season while we are at it?

Yea it doesn't even look like the same shoe to me honestly.
 
ehh did something quick.

To me this still looks like something for Amare's short lived line.

To be totally honest from the CW's I've seen I will be passing on the LB VIII just a downgrade from the LBJ VII....
 
^No you won't. You WILL buy a pair. We all will be owning a pair sooner or later, that's how it always ends up lol
 
I didn't realize the air bubble extends past the heal like that....looks really dumb.
 
A lot of people will be changing their opinions when they're released

These look a lot better than some of the Lebron's that you all like. Slap a limited special colorway on a pair of sneakers and opinions tend to change quickly

Oh, the irony.

In any case, colorblocking and overall weight of this shoe are what will sell me on the VIII.

(Can't wait for those Miami Heat PE's!!!)
