I tweeted NikeBasketball and they said they'd be live tweeting the event at 4pmEST and to stay tuned. I wish they'd get someone to throw it up on USTREAM
What time is the launch event tomorrow?

^ Good looks.
Coming in late on the lebron 12
I assume these have the drop in sole
aka less tech for more $$$ ?
this...i wanna like this shoe but i just need a cw that will grab me
Hopefully we get some good looks at some new colorways today
Pure speculation but my guess is the mesh portions are like the "flyknit" portions from the XX9's in terms of a structure inside. The XX9's have a type of "hardened" skeleton in the toe and heel portions of the material to provide support and protection. With these I could see the mesh like material having that same type of form underneath, then the extra layer with the "shell" pieces around the ankle and down near the sides of the foot on the outside of the shoe with that plastic. I bet they will be pretty comfortable too, based on the materials. But that's just my guess from the pictures.Really lookin forward to all the nerdy stuff: weight, why a podular set-up (hopefully not a bust like lunarlon for lebron), materials, etc. Really hope these are comfortable out the box with none of that break-in stuff. Mesh, if that's what it is, looks promising but does appear to be somewhat rigid. Guess we'll find out today!

the hype alone would cause mass hysteria and panic i can see it now...hypebeast crying out "they bringing back galaxy!"
looks like a PS but still pretty dope
I hope you're right bro. I'm somewhat anticipating a kobe 9 type of feel, where it's not technically functional flyknit because of the hyperfuse interior, but instead of faux flyknit it's faux mesh. We'll see though. When it comes down to it I really just don't wanna go through that inital pinky toe hazing lol.
Are there pics of the XIIs black/red? I'm a sucker for that C/W.
I read 4 PM ET on NikeBasketball twitterWhat time is this event supposed to be?
Definitely, the shirts and limited promo stuff I've seen has been subway maps and map type print. Could be interesting.
cant wait to see what theme they use for the All Star game being that its over here in NYC...
