" HOH opens in Miami."

I been waiting along time for this.

 

[thapointguy]

That colorway is hideous, they should stay in Miami. I did not like the allstar vii either.

.....calls homie that works @NT Miami. Besides, I WOULDN'T believe the "Miami ONLY" label. For those who have contacts @ their HOH's. Ask them if they have anything popping up on their manifests this month!

 

[only mjs collected]

^already did... and they dont (my guys run both HOH's in CHICAGO)

 

[diddydadagger]

The Mia VIII is the epitome on the vibrant vomits down there and it's a clean look.

 

[elijahbrohammed]

Would have looked a lot better with black being the main color with the filament green on other parts of the shoe.

 

[you big dummy]

Thanks. I was thinking they were going to be a .5 size smaller like the VII's.

Same here.  If the VIII fits small/true to the size, that's a good look.

 

[torotrigger]

i have to say, i definitely like the "Pre-Heat" miami versions...

icy soles, i like that blue they used as well...definitely a cop if i can find my size

ahem...11/11.5 - thanks.

 

[smurfdavid]

Damn i already got over 50 pm's and text's i cant help anymore people the people i replied to already know what time it is 

 

[metallic]

^wow what did I tell u. Well it's been a couple of hours since pre-heat VIII was announced and now there is about 7 diff rumors. I wonder which one is true?

 

[asmathews]

China's look good

 

[bak ymmij]

Those are amazing, exactly the colorway I thought of when LeBron announced he was going to Miami.

I haven't bought a shoe in so long, I have to have these. Just hope I don't miss out.

 

[freakshow]

These are more Miami than those.

 

[downyboy]

pre-heats are dope, just not worth the trouble for me.

 

[jordan23 4xl]

Here's a few pics with them on..

 

[mrdozo]

Those miamis look cool. I like that blue. All I want is 1 pair of 8's in the blue hwc colors, aka Knicks colors.

 

[never wear them]

Not feelin the chinas on feet.

The Miamis are cool but need to see more pics. The tongue is what set it off. They shoulda made the sole pink as well.

The China's look really plain. The Blackouts are garbage, the Miami's are hypebeast deluxes, the only ones so far that are ok so far are the Black GR's and to a lesser extent the USAs.  What a huge disappointment, I was really looking forward for the VIII's to be groundbreaking. This reminds me of the Jordan XVI's when they came out.

 

[never wear them]

But seeing Jordan (his magnitude) wearing em, made them cool

And even tho it wasn't groundbreaking.... They at least added a shroud to make the sig unique.... That counts a little bit no?

But agree. The 1st GR is nice.
