Literally No ball player has any iconic or cool shoe except :mjgrin: and that's it
Nah. Reebok Kamikazes (Shawn Kemp), Shaqnosis (Shaq), Questions (Iverson) are iconic and sold well as retros just recently...
Penny from the Foams to his player models are iconic and sell well as retros...
Ewing Athletics, as an independent line is still selling...
Pippen's Nike Air Up Tempos are classics
And there's more examples

Even today I see people wearing the Puma suede Clyde's and it's been like 40 years

:hhh: LeBron is Nike's highest money maker and sneaker seller...

He has several great models and once he retires he'll get retros.

The South Beach 8's were some of the most coveted sneakers in modern sneaker culture.

LeBron's sneakers were more innovative than Kobe's. Kobe made the same low tops with slight variations over and over again.

The LeBron 9's are the best basketball sneaker I've ever owned in performance and durability and they look good too.

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
:dead:
