Nike LeBron 8 V.2 Christmas   Special Packaging in Beijing Release

In Beijing, Santa arrived with a little something extra for the Nike LeBron V.2 ‘Christmas’. While the U.S. release of the Christmas-inspired LeBron 8 V.2 shoe came in a regular slide-out box, the happy (and go-lucky) customers in Beijing received a special black wooden box with a special Christmas-themed etching on the outer facad with the shoes stored in a black suede bag with a golden LeBron Lion logo. Also included was a special booklet called ‘Christmas Day Battle in Beijing 2010′, alluding to Miami’s bout with the Los Angeles Lakers on Christmas Day. These special wooden boxes are usually reserved for special edition releases – and it seems like the Christmas V.2 just made that cut. Take a look at this unique packaging set-up after the jump and let us know what you think. via LRJ23.

  4. HotSizzle11 Says:

    HMM GREAT BOX FOR A WACK SHOE

  5. Boogie Says:

    Yeah we would get just the box with his mug on it lol (pause)
    But honestly makes me no nevermind that other packaging looks like the Masonic star low key, if it's not don't bash me, sick shoe regardless of how It came wrapped up I'm jus glad I could get a pair!

  6. John B. Says:

  7. Crwuser Says:

    I swear I hate China!

  8. Lem Says:

    Like everyone else said. Good looking box. Ugly shoe no matter the color.

  9. Giovanni Cordero Says:

    The box is hard.. Don't like the shoe though

  10. MaxAir Says:

    its pretty complicated and im not joking!

  11. MaxAir Says:

    wake up man no disrespect but this is what happens when our $ is worth shit and we owe trillions to china…..did you ever wonder why most sig shoes have had a china edition for years now not to mention the shoes are made their and china is the biggest country more we get them interested in hoops more $$ for NIKE

  12. cookie sheet Says:

    its the shoe that matters…china gets these releases b/c there is more people and their economy is better so they can pay for senseless shit like this. They also ride nikes joystick like a fcking COD addict so they KNOW for a fact the shoes will sell well. They all look the same wear the same things…thats where the term hypebeast was originated; lol, naw thats kind of racist but you catch my drift.

  13. datkidfelix Says:

    Huh? It looks like a star you put on a Christmas tree my dude? Can we leave the conspiracy theories in 2010. Please and thank you.

  14. MaxAir Says:

    4sho it is

  15. rah_money Says:

    how much did it cost thou?

  16. MaxAir Says:

    u put a pyramid with a star on top of it on your tree???

  17. @MartyMcLea Says:

    they don't even celebrate Christmas??

  18. cookie sheet Says:

    i cant convert peso's (or whatever they money called) to dollars but i can guarantee you they were too much. hardy har.

  19. @supermanXI Says:

    Just keep it to yourself buddy

  20. @supermanXI Says:

    Umm, no, half the people in china can't even afford these

  21. John K. Says:

    You clearly don't comprehend the amount of coin Nike earns from China. You think Americans can afford a $160 shoe? Hell no.

  22. double R Says:

    THAT PACKAGING LOOK EVIL AS HELL.

  23. grownANDsexy Says:

    I think more and more of us are getting that my friend, . i still wish that more people had a balance between looking good and making sure they also understand whats going on in business and politics

  24. grownANDsexy Says:

    china is gonna get you for saying that lol

    no more pants, shoes, toys, money, or anything else for you1 guess where its all made now?

  25. liuzuoyi Says:

    it is just for China!

  26. SneakerCraze Says:

    You're wack…

  27. @supermanXI Says:

    No its that people in America don't want to spend $160 on sneakers, not that they can't afford it.
