My personal favorite brons are the 7s, and particularly

Red Carpet 7s (own)

Jordan and Iverson the main two honestly. Next up would be a few of those low top Kobe's like these VIII's:

Everything else are the same level.

Lebron's shoes are weird, they look like they're really dope when they first release, but give it awhile and they lose their draw:

Fukk 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 :whoo:" ":lupe:"

Me: :youngsabo:


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

Never wear Haynes draws either. I woulda been in the league but I got a wedgie during tryouts. :yeshrug:

fukk you Michael Jordan :pacspit: :mjpls:

Impossible to wear a LeBron 7? :dahell:

It's patent leather it looks good on feet, there was a lot of great colorways for that model.

What do you expect the shoes are from 7 years ago :dahell:

Casually they was hot back then you claim they couldn't be worn casually. Now it's more fitted clothes and runners over basketball sneakers. Wale's fit ain't bad it's just a throwback Padres jersey and camouflage cargos. The color ways, air max bubble, patent leather make this a nice shoe on feet.

LeBron brought them back out in suede with a Tech suit, if you want a more modern example.

Do you see what theya re wearing it with.... big ass jeans? baseball jerseys? 2009 shyt.... and then sweat suites.. The difference is you can wear 1s....3s...Yeeys..... to a club and not be bothered. That is what I meant by Lebrons not being a casual shoe. You can wear anything with a sweatsuit lol

Lebrons are a basketball sneaker, not a fashion sneaker at all.

Nikka they came out in 2009 what you expect :heh:

They haven't been retroed, that nostalgia isn't there yet, Nike ain't marketing LeBron's yet. Talks about retroing the 1's just came this year, dude is in the middle of his playing career.

Where are you from? Baseball jerseys been made a comeback for at least the last two summer.
