Nike LeBron 8 V/2 Low ‘Solar Red’ – Sample

They’ve been the two most significant Nike LeBron 8 V2 Low colorways we’ve seen in the wake of the initial ‘Sprite’ edition, but what if the ‘Solar Red’ and ‘Miami Nights’ were a single pair? That probably has you picturing the latter’s crazy splatter-printed upper with some element from the Solar Reds, but if you were to go for roughly the opposite, you’d end up with something like what’s pictured above. These Solar Red LeBron 8 V/2 Lows add a matching full-length Max Air cushion and outsole for an even redder final product; did Nike Basketball make the right choice in swapping these for the released black bottoms?

i got da solar reds & i think they look better wit da black air unit.. but dat red is fierce
Black is better these are too bright, the contrast looks good on the ones released
black bottom balanced the entire shoe. i'm happy with what released
these look a lot better
thank you!
I like the black bottom sole better
The Sprites were the only must-haves. The others are either whack or hype.
For those sneakerheads who copped Solars...NYA-NYA-NYAAAAAAAHHHH!!! you've been duped!...BIGTIME!!! This is what Solars should have been, blackening of 360 air unit totally defeated its purpose. look at those Sprites,...VOLT ALLL OVER THE 360 UNIT...NOW that's a dope! Well, cough up another $150 to appease you when these solar reds drop. Sprites>>>Miami Nights>Solar Reds>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Solars>Wolf Grey>Black
Yeah the miami nights sucked..
yea sprites r the best of the V2 low colorways!
ditto!!! SPRITES and others = ROYALTY and commoners.
i like them both..
i like this version better
Nice!
someone help on spotting the difference
I really like the red sole. The black is Ok but the red makes the swoosh stand out better.
not samples, its a photoshop from nt
Like it with black sole better. Makes it pop!
I dig the ones that released more.
I like them better with the solar red bubble and sole
These are nice but I like the colorway they released better.
looks a lot better with the black air unit
I disagree I feel the red bottoms compliment the entire shoe better, the black midsole and bottom on the released version toned the shoe down too much and sort of left the midsole in the background, if they would have contrasted the outsole with a lighter color the distinction between the levels would have been more pronounced like in the sprites which sold out quicker than instantly. Instead the solar reds are lingering in retailers since its second drop. Personally I have the sprites and the solars once I got the solars quite honestly i wasnt that impressed in person as I thought I would .Another example the blackouts which are still widely available have no distinction of the levels, sells dont lie!
i agree with you man....forget these haters who thumb you down
I wish I could "thumbs down" this comment ten more times...I guess this will just have to do. -__-
nike fucked up. surprise.
Hot!
It look like they removed the bottoms of the Miami Nights and slap them on the Solar Reds.
uhhh yeah....thats what the article just said....
solar reds are nice.
