Just like his game, his shoes are rounding into form as well. Expect these sleek new additions to his catalogue to be a big seller.

Looks like a flatcoloured cellphone with a band-aid over it.

Not really my cuppa.

Exclusive? The pics of the V's have been floating around the shoe community (NT and ISS) for months now.

BTW, like LeBron himself.....these shoes are garbage!

There's been pics floating around of the new Brons since mid season LAST YEAR. Not to mention the huge launch party in Vegas over the summer. Damn, you call yourself a LeBron fan?

[RIMMER]

I still prefer the LBJ2's.

You see the Air Zoom Kobe 3's, fam?

They look like a waffle, but I bet they are the most comfy joints to play in ...

I'm still holding out for the re-release of the Air Penny II.

:ohwell:

LeBron hater haha.

Seriously though, the shoes are alright, nothing that special.

in 1996 i never expected basketball shoes to reach their peak. how sad.

They use such cheap materials and production methods. New sneaks barely even last w/ you play in them. Basketball shoe technology has regressed. Quite sad.

Actually these high tops remind me of the 90's shoes and my childhood.

[SomeBunghole]

I haven't bought a single pair of basketball shoes that were designed in the past 10 years. This would basically be why.

hmm. im not seeing it, but if you are then thats cool.

i wish i had bought boxes and boxes of shoes back then and just stored them for now.

[wang4three]

They gotta bring back foamy designs like the Penny's were. They just looked like a sock cloud.

Too much color + not enough black/white = I ain't gettin' that ****.

They are re-retroing the Penny foamposites. That was my all-time favorite. Only shoe I wanted but could never get. Came out in 1997 and they were just SO sexy. So futuristic, yet subtle @ the same time w/ no whack designs or logos. They were ultra-light and they adapted to you feat. Love 'em. So flashy. I would've dies to get a pair. But @ the time, my foot wasn't big enough. They only had them in men's sizes, and even then they were extremely hard to get and they set a record back in the day as being the most expensive hoopin shoes. I would've been emberassed to ask my folks for them. Hell, the year prior was the first year Jordans got ridiculously expensive. W/ the AJ XI, I wore a size 6. Which is that tweener shoe size right before Nike gets you in men's. The AJ XI cost my folks $100 for a KID'S shoe. I believe the men's was $125, and that was the most expensive a shoe had ever been.

Then the next year these sexy all blue foam Penny's come out, not even a Jordan shoe, and are set @ $180 in 1997. In today's market, that would be like paying close to $300 for A PAIR of shoes.

I'd get 'em if the re-retroed them the exact way they were originally. In the Penny Blue is the ones I'd get.

I liked the white ones with the big black nike logo on the side. Jesus Shuttlesworth wears 'em in He Got Game.

But the Blue Penny's was where it was @. Like I said, so stylish and flashy. Yet also subtle. Man, what a great shoe.

Pics ...

Oh so SEXY. I would so get them if they re-released. First shoe to form to your foot.

I remember only one guy @ my local gym having them. And the only time you could literally get me to stop playing @ the rec center I went to ... was to watch this guy when he broke them out his gym bag. It was like when he opened his bag, a shining light would encompass the shoe. My jaw would hit the floor. And I'd just sit there and watch the older guys play full, not even paying attention to the game. Just watching dude's feet. LMAO

[Quickness]

time to get rid of my fireplace and buy one of those shoes :banana:

[NBA4EVER]

this is what i hate about lebron shoes....they are really nice looking and everything but the cost so much! if you want fans to buy your shoes you dont make them 200 dollars. kids parents dont want to spend 200 dollars on basketball shoes when they could get some of those starburys or the new cheap ben wallace ones.

in my city they have a marshalls which is a pretty cheap store. i am a d-wade fan and they sell wade shoes there for about 20 bucks! i got the wade 1.3 for $20 and on eastbay they are 75 dollars. and the wade 3.0 were 30 dollars there. online they are 100 dollas

[raptorsfan]

thse are sexy:banana:
