There’s quite a bit of favorable buzz about the shoe pictured above these words, but how it’s remembered in the coming years will depend on the outcome of the next two or three games. LeBron James is closer than ever to his first NBA Championship, but he no longer has a chance to celebrate before the Nike LeBron 8 V2 Low ‘Sprite’ hits retailers. That’s because the lemon-lime flavored LeBron 8 V/2 Lows are prepped to hit Foot Locker’s House of Hoops on Friday and have already been spotted at select Champs Sports locations. Click through to see some new images and avoid the rush at your local Nike Basketball retailer by buying yours on eBay.

June 8th, 2011 at 11:37 am
I guarantee you somebody from nike messed up the shipping dates.

nike kinda wrong for dropping these less than a week from the true blues… many people got empty pockets… .$150 for lows is a lil much tho…..

I really like this shoe alot, but i don't want to pay so high above retail price just to get it early;imma be patient and wait for these to drop, saving me lots

Nike and JB just caught me with the Okiedoke lol You got the Air Jordan 2011 Warriors pack releasing tomorrow, the Lebron 8 "Sprites" on Friday, and the M7 Advance in black/white on Saturday. C'mon Son!! The LeBrons and Melos are a definite cop though! Time for more OT at work! This is definitely a sneakerhead's summer!

June 8th, 2011 at 5:09 pm
does anyone have any news if boston is getting them
June 8th, 2011 at 5:10 pm
Man these go hard the color is great and you could definitely break necks with these. but for $150 that's just asking to much Nike you know a'lot of people went to go get the true blues and there's still people waiting on the cardinal 7s bad timing and price on your behalf.
June 8th, 2011 at 7:36 pm
Good luck trying to get them in NY. I just called Roosevelt Field, Queens Center Mall, Valley Stream, and Harlem. Sold out…they came out yesterday up here. Oh well. I'll wait for the solar red joints lol
