ewwwwwwwwww cmon nike i was excited when i saw the teasers but this is like the poor mans golf ball version of the v2, lets hope the perforance makes up for the looks
these are crazy!! that air bubble has never been seen before, very innovative! i bet they are super comftorable for on court, definetly fit for the king and his first run to a ring!!
I wouldn't waste my TIME on P.S it's just another reason for nike to make Money ………………. Im a lebron fan but come on who really needs a shoe just for the playoffs????????????
Wow! These lookin' good! Hyperfuse, air max and zoom. No way my feet will ever complain about anything ever again. Cool and comfortable. 24-7 in these. Wow.
Best of the bunch so far. That said, three versions of a shoe during the season is overkill. Should have released the V2 as the regular season version and this one as the playoff shoe.
i mean nike enjoys there work but the whole point is to make money they don't just do this voluntarily, there the best in the world but there goal is to make money and have fun doing it, it was lebron and jason petrie's decision combined and they earned the right to even make a different shoe every day of the year
translation: these will be more than the hyperfuse b/c LeBrons name and nike IS actually out to get your printed paper and they're having fun while doing it……one shoes retail is the same price it costs to make 50 of the same shoes. dont do it for charity but dont rob us either.
I am really kinda disappointed! I thought they were gonna look WAY better. I'm sure they will be super comfortable. I will still get em, just not this colorway
Not what I (or may I say…any of us) was expecting, but looking good! I know the performance of these will be ridiculous. I definitely cannot wait to see more colorways and of course the Dunkmans!!!!
if you dont want them to "rob" you then don't buy the shoes, its a pretty obvious choice if you think your overpaying and if you like them enough to buy them then there being smart if your willing to buy them then theyll make more profit
Agreee!!!!! These are actually hideous… Not a fan of the Lebron 8's at all but these just brought it to a new level… As a designer i have to say these are a bust…. Lebron 7s were prob the best lookin shoe so far from LBJ
i like the whole concept of being innovative but there is just way too much going on even in an all white upper, literally the only thing i like about this shoe is the new air usage, i think it looks really good and its something new that hasn't been done yet, i hope this is a sign of something to come as being the newest and best bball shoe kind of like how j's were like the usage of patent leather on an athletic shoe, or the use of zoom air, or using color on shoes, or icy soles, or 3m on shoes, and so many more
that was the dumbest thing ive ever heard, try getting that much leather, the laces, the fuse material, etc. for under 15 bucks, u may be right that the PRODUCTION of each shoe is 3 cents back in china but not the shoe as a whole
not another version of this crap just say "we fucked up" and come out with a diffrent shoe already redoing the same one over and over is another way of saying "we didnt try hard enough the first time" bums anything for a buck and most of yall will buy it so more power too you but fuck this shoe let me see the 9 if its gon more of this v2345678 crap

January 27th, 2011 at 2:06 pm
i would like to see a black or blue cw. the "flywire" would be nice being a different color than the fuse
January 27th, 2011 at 2:14 pm

January 27th, 2011 at 2:18 pm
i guess LBJ needs them…
January 27th, 2011 at 2:21 pm
You sound like you work for NIKE.
January 27th, 2011 at 2:33 pm
effing crap…if these are priced more than the hyperfuse nike is just out for your printed paper.
January 27th, 2011 at 2:35 pm
dissapointment
January 27th, 2011 at 2:39 pm
These are dope, very impressed cant wait to see if they actually release the dunkman version of these.
January 27th, 2011 at 2:56 pm

January 27th, 2011 at 2:56 pm
ARE YOU KIDDING ME…THE V1S AND V2S WERE FIRE AND NOW WE GET STUCK WITH THIS CRAP…CMON
January 27th, 2011 at 3:03 pm
lebrons making a big mistake
January 27th, 2011 at 3:06 pm
i think these may look better in a darker cw
January 27th, 2011 at 3:27 pm
the inside look of these look like the reebok questions to me lol and i love that. the way the inside looks definately made me want these more
January 27th, 2011 at 3:42 pm
Only if it had a 360 air unit.
January 27th, 2011 at 3:47 pm
Wow these are niiice all three versions of the lebron viii are niice

January 27th, 2011 at 5:10 pm
Wow, can't wait for the Lebron Off season and post season press conferences.
Lol how many signature editions can one guy have? I'm a heat fan but c'mon! Lol
January 27th, 2011 at 5:17 pm
these shoes look like fly swatters… -___-
January 27th, 2011 at 5:44 pm
these look much better than i thought they would from the teaser pics
January 27th, 2011 at 5:49 pm
These are fresh i wish they would have released the hyperfuse version of the LBJ 7
January 27th, 2011 at 6:10 pm
are you kidding? the v2 lookings way better than these
January 27th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
V1 nice, V2 WOW!, V3 crap! Im expecting something mew not this one. This is a down grade! Hyperfuse low is much better than this. Sad!
January 27th, 2011 at 6:17 pm
Hope they come out with darker color. White fuse material tend to turn yellow (sa per my hyperfuse USA) gona get them in a different CW.
January 27th, 2011 at 6:50 pm

January 27th, 2011 at 7:13 pm
wack….da v1 were da best 8′s
January 27th, 2011 at 7:31 pm
Easy pass on this model. Version 3 definitely comes in third out of the group.
January 27th, 2011 at 7:49 pm
it takes less than 3 cents to make a pair of nikes
January 27th, 2011 at 7:56 pm
some 24fans are jealous
January 27th, 2011 at 9:05 pm

January 27th, 2011 at 10:22 pm
Damn if they keep stripping and making the shit lighter they're gonna be flip flops

that was the dumbest thing ive ever heard, try getting that much leather, the laces, the fuse material, etc. for under 15 bucks, u may be right that the PRODUCTION of each shoe is 3 cents back in china but not the shoe as a whole
January 27th, 2011 at 11:50 pm
v1 was dope..v2 was even doper the PS is just BS… yuck (throw up)
January 28th, 2011 at 12:45 am
not another version of this crap just say "we fucked up" and come out with a diffrent shoe already redoing the same one over and over is another way of saying "we didnt try hard enough the first time" bums anything for a buck and most of yall will buy it so more power too you but fuck this shoe let me see the 9 if its gon more of this v2345678 crap
January 28th, 2011 at 4:37 am
I think they're ok… more CWs please (dunkman!)! i will cop as well but not this CW… i think they shouldn't have taken out the heel tab though…
January 28th, 2011 at 10:19 am

January 28th, 2011 at 10:52 pm
I would much rather the Dunkmans to have been a V2 but oh well….sigh…..
January 29th, 2011 at 4:01 am
darnit you found out…
January 29th, 2011 at 7:00 pm
hahaha id love to see the heat miss the playoffs now.
February 11th, 2011 at 11:23 am
jordan has had numerous playoff colorways, the shoe isnt worth lookin at but the gesture is right on time
