The Official Nike LeBron XII Thread- "July 4th/USA" & "King's Cloak/Red Paisley" 06/27/15

[Gordonson]

I'M FEELING THE LOOK OF THE LEBRON 12'S. HOPEFULLY WILL BRING ME BACK TO THE LEBRON LINE. WASN'T FEELING THE 10'S OR 11'S AFTER I WENT HAM ON THE 9'S.

I take it that you being done in December is now up in the air?

I always wonder, do you guys think Nike is incapable of lying? Is there no way possible all those "numbers" and "sales figures" could be a tad bit fake... Just saying.

Nike like most large corporations can use creative accounting on their fiscal reports but you simply cannot manipulate hard figures and sales volumes - that would constitute fraud. If caught via internal/external audit the fines and consequences would be stiff plus Nike's reputation would be severely tarnished.

and what is this specimen on the right?? 

 

[barbarianbob]

The right shoe looks like it may have some potential, the new shot of them with that low *** check still there though :x

Those Pods look real small, thought they would be a lil bit bigger for more cushion which is what the previous model lacked on..

The XI lacked cushion???

Some would say the XI has TOO MUCH cushion... midsole just sits a little too high because of it, IMO.

As long as the XII toebox is flexible/pliable, I'll give em a shot.

the potential is there, pics getting better and better

and what is this specimen on the right?? 

Could be lateral and medial shots of 2 different colourways of the same shoe.

Not bad can't wait for final product

im not buying 200$ shoes just to go hoop at the ymca. I buy sneakers for style. This isnt like mike. A pair of hyper whatevers for 70$ will do just fine. With that said, these do not look promising but we`ll see

That makes no sense at all. You rather wear them outdoor walking through dirt, sand, puddle of water and everything else that would destroy these shoe with super soft outsole? Personally I rather play ball in them on clean indoor floors because they are comfortable and can last longer.

Now that pic is definitely getting me excited .....the right one makes me think of an X and XI mash-up

When you consider the likelihood of somebody stepping on your shoe during a game (and the indoor floors aren't that clean, dust and dirt are inevitable) against the possibility that a person can avoid dirt, sand, puddles of water I'd take the latter.

I'd bet majority of people who buy "basketball shoes" don't actually ball in em. Think of the majority of collectors who have DS shoes still in their original box

Gold flake looks like it is in the paneling and is not paint speckle. Same with the outsole.

 

[jedv21]

I'm liking the right pair on that pic.

 

[thapointguy]

Not liking what I see now as it may be reality that the Swoosh placement might be official? Why have they not fired the speckle guy :x

Because the speckle guy's mentally deficient and Nike would get sued if they did, can't have that bad press ......

 

[thapointguy]

eh bad press = good press for Nike |I
