Just yesterday Sneaker News gave you a look at the Nike LeBron 8 ‘Denim’ sample, which featured a full denim upper with gold contrast stitching. We also learned that this sample was designed by none other than celebrity sneaker aficionado and Nike LeBron sample extraordinaire DJ Clark Kent. Here we have a first look at the entire shoe, and as you can see, the denim material is used on the entire upper except for the rear Flywire panel. The gum outsole gives this classic American fashion inspired LeBron 8 an even more vintage look – almost like the jeans-and-Timbs appeal. Take a look below and let us know if you’d cop these if they ever released! via Air_Andy.

They're dope but alil too much denim should have kept both flywire patches black. #twocent

Only Denim shoes that worked in my opionion were the SB's and The recent Air Force ones. But these, no.
August 9th, 2011 at 5:46 pm
112 pack – winner
AF1 HI – KNICKS/METS – loser
denim lebron – at least the 112 release was good
let's all guess – he can borrow MAYOR'S roll of camo and make a camo lebron
ATF – All Things Foolish
August 9th, 2011 at 5:51 pm
definitely not for me
August 9th, 2011 at 6:01 pm
will someone please tell nike what ATF is all about? — maybe it should be FeetsMalone — as an employee of Nike shouldn't he know better?
August 9th, 2011 at 6:06 pm
Roll of camo! Hahahaha. Hopes and dreams.
August 9th, 2011 at 6:16 pm
i thought these could have been a reellee sick colorway with a few hits of denim but they turned out like SHIT!!!!!!
August 9th, 2011 at 6:34 pm
mayor's needs 2 rolls of camo for his ego
August 9th, 2011 at 6:47 pm
except for them not being released
August 9th, 2011 at 7:05 pm
There's one thing that will stop you from copping. The fact that they are a sample.
Fuck what everyone else is saying. These are fire. Please ck, drop these and 112's.
August 9th, 2011 at 10:22 pm
Exactly, the teasers had me goin for a bit…
August 9th, 2011 at 10:27 pm
Yall need to stop with this "if they release" crap. If they're not releasing then don't play with our emotions and post
August 9th, 2011 at 11:49 pm
It also depends on the quality of the denim, hopefully they're designer quality considering how much these will cost.
August 10th, 2011 at 11:05 am
Yeah these definitely fail.
Poor execution IMO.
