He got some heat in there, 3s 6s 10s and 14s. The thing is his logo isn't as recognizable as a Jordan shoe, so only sneakerheads would instantly know that some them joints are Lebrons.

Man U just assFukk Lebron.
His concrete block kicks cost me a starting spot in high school.
I don't remember what number shoes they were, but they are all white with some gold. They didn't have my size at Champ's, so I bought one size too big just to stunt on my teammates.
In warm-ups heard my teammates looking down saying, "Kal El got the Lebrons" "
"
Me:
I didn't even practice in them to break them in, I just went straight to wearing them on gameday. I could tell during warm-ups when I was dragging these boulders on my feet just to make a left handed layup that I was fuked.
I got pulled less that 5 minutes into the game. Didn't start the rest of the season.
Fukk u Lebron
I used to see a lot of people wear the J Kidd's. Interesting look.
Horrible taste in shoes displayed in this thread

Bron stans stay bringing up numbers. I'm talking about looks nikkas.
Show me one iconic looking shoe Bron has?
The 9s?How those look again?
The lebron II, III, IV = foam, bron air force ones, the bron eight and bron nine were the bron best designs.
It just so happened in those era's.
People were kinda just still air force one wearing people and just basic.
To the point the lebron air force one vi is unheralded and should be given its props.
As resale of those in the know have the prices for resale through the roof.
Let this nikka win this title this year and I off my three's and my two cool grey more than likely.

These have been re-imagined with flyknit and a rear zipper based upper.
Tony and bull1trc reviewed them recently.

whole shoe "game" changed after the thirst for those elevated after they released. I got 2 pair the day they dropped w/ ease....then a week later folks offering $600 in cash while I'm walking in the mall...I was like.....after that release it became harder to get good releases....everybody was a "shoe" head
Yeah, that's what I was trying to say about the SB8s. It didn't reach its peak hype until after release, whereas most other shoes of it's ilk are hyped to hell and back before they are available.
LeBron retros will not sell unless they're really limited. The sneaker market has exploded since the times when AJ retros were nothing special. Despite what this thread will tell you, LeBron doesn't have enough game changing shoes to garner much hype for a retro. That's not to say no one will by them, it depends a lot on pricing but most will be at outlets next to current LeBrons.
That last pic looks like a rock climbing wall straight
Everything isn't for everyone.
4s will forever be the goat hoop shoe
But the nines shifted the culture
Right numbers but the wrong player
MJ been retired but still has kids who never saw him play buying his kicks. That is iconic

I find the majority of Lebron sneaker designs to be ugly. I don't count the Chambers of Fear air forces because that's just different color blocking on an already iconic sneaker.
Lebron's didn't sell well until the 4's which resembled "posites".
There were always PE collectors who bought his kicks but they took off when Nike really added the hype.
Making Yankees inspired pair, China & All Star colorways.
A lot of people don't buy $200 kicks to ball in. They buy them for casual wear & his sneakers don't look as good with jeans as some others do.

Nah, basketball kicks are outta here. Adidas changed the game and pushed people towards running silhouettes. A few years ago everyone in NYC was literally in J's, foams, or occasionally Brons. Now all I see are Ultra Boosts, NMD'S, Yeezy's, Presto's, and Huaraches. Presto's are what I see the most. This would be the worst time to retro Brons.
