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

Pair came in from SNS finally. $125 = happy camper

Nice. My SNS shipment actually got here yesterday but I wasn't around to sign so I gotta go pick it up

Easter is easily my second fav.
For basketball/LeBron fans....it's because I don't want Miami Heat leftovers. Nothing against the team...nothing against the colorways....not calling anything trash. I'm just saying....it's as simple as that. The same feeling you get from seeing the pink on the DH....is the same feeling I get when I see a giant chrome 6 on the front of the shoe.

Now go tend the rabbits Lennie, class is dismissed.

So you're George?

Some people are just nitpicky. I don't even pay attention to the 6.

bet those same nitpicky folks got j's with the number 45 on them! If that posite on the Easters are 3M and what seems to have rose designs on them are shown once a flash pic is taken I believe people will be singing a new tune!

I wonder if this Flight series is gonna drop out of nowhere.  I peeped the KD thread to see if they had a RD for the Thunderbolts and I saw that Kickzstore already had a couple of sizes for sale.  Cowboys this weekend, Easters and Wheats not coming out for another 2.5 weeks or so....if they were to drop mid April (since RD calendars haven't gone out that far), it would definitely break the trend of early on foot pics vs. release dates that we've seen with the XII's.

I remember someone saying they didn't cop the instincts because of the quarter inch volt crown on the tongue it's so minute you probably wouldn't even notice it.

Looks like Nike stiffed LeBron on the sixth hex zoom unit.........I thought his PEs would have zoom in that pod.

 

[Mister Meaner]

Those PEs remind me of the Gundam id I mocked up last year. I checked it out now and the options are very mehh.

So what's the tally of how many c/ws we got for the 12 so far? Anyone else feel that over-saturation has led to the lack of "classic" must-have pairs? It's like every other week a sig gets rolled out.

 

[The7onius]

16 we've seen so far and 3 of them I wouldn't wear.

 

[andersonrezende]

Yes. Looks like they're focused on making tons of colorways, not great colorways. Quantity over quality is what is going on here. Right at the shoe's launch, seven colorways were unveiled. NSRL and HOL were the coolest to me, but none of them is sets the model apart. Because of this, I don't think the XII will be remembered as a great shoe like the older LeBrons are.

P.S.: When I was counting how many cws were shown at first, I realized there was one missing. I did some research (like looking for it on the first page) and found out it was the forgettable Six Meridians. See what I mean?

Nowhere near the XI's as far a over-saturated

Those PE's remind me of these
