THE OFFICIAL LEBRON VIII THREAD Updated V3 release 4/16/2011

looks like they used nice materials, but the hints that i've seen don't appeal to me.

I'm SURE there are some legit pics out there...
 
I've seen a couple colorways of these. Y'all won't be disappointed.

MaZe
 
And 5 out of the 50 colorways will br GR

in that second photo, is that a carbon fiber weaved forefoot upper element? it sounds good in theory but looks to be out of place just plastered onto the side.

I could be wrong though
 
If these are anywhere near as attractive as the VIIs, I might cop. BTW, the VIIs were my first pair of Lebrons.

Haha, sheesh that would be insane!
Not to mention expensive!


  

That shoe would be ridiculous and not in a good way. Flywire to make it light, but Posite would make it heavy its just things that don't necessarily go together.
 
im really anticipating this after seeing what they did with the VIIs,  hopefully nothing keeps me from coppin

lol!  i hope that original comment was a joke.  either way it made me laugh.
 
I hope you're not saying the AMVIIs look like the KobeVs. Cuz if you are, you might wanna get your eyes checked bro lol

The big swoosh isn't so bad! Out of all the 7 of the main LJs ,only 2 of them had the HUGE swooshes (VIs & VIIs). The AZGs had a medium sized one =P

Agreed, those fake producers have been ridiculously on point haven't they...and a good way to sneak peeks at the 8s...cuz look at those damn soldier 4s!!!! They look freakishly good!

 They're definitely not hiding in basements anymore producing kicks...
 
im liking that they are using a cushlon midsole like the air max 2009. the phylon mixed with this 360 bag just didnt give it the same plush feel as the air max 2009.
 
So basically the Lebron VIII is gonna feel like the Air Max 2009?


Why cant they just got to a heel Air Max/Zoom forefoot setup? Why has Nike abandoned this setup?

true.. but i think that technology is so 90s. Jordan did it. Charles did it. Penny did it.

Its nice to see them try to build on the 360 air technology...its something new and refreshing to basketball shoes.
