The official Sneakerhead Thread*************

Y'all are looking at the small picture here.
One weekend of supposed bad sales and a hashtag is not going to prompt MJ (who has stayed quiet on social issues his whole life) to all of a sudden speak out and donate money publicly.
If anything, the NBA pulling the game out of Charlotte (and him losing out on millions of dollars) probably prompted him to speak out.
Watch, next he'll be donating money to a gay-rights group so he won't piss off that group and lose out on more money.

Very well may be. Maybe he's reached a point in his life to speak on this. Maybe Melo (who's Team Jordan) inspires him.

Whatever the case, I hope that more black conservatives speak upon issues in the black community. It's about damn time

[QUOTE="BeatDownRecords, post: 16780812, member: 25919"]I was in footlocker today and was surprised they had the 5s still available.. I guess that $220 niggas wasn't trying to hear it for that price

With tax that's $245 :smh:

shit ninjas is paying 200 for jordans pernt blank. Dudes is broke or didn't want them. The only sweet 5's to me is the OG colorways. All them other ugly retro colors sell out at 200$ ticket:dunno:

Those were FIREEEEEEEEE!!!!!


And yeah, you can bitch about the price tag (which probably had more to do with them not selling than a boycott) but I doubt Nike is budging
 
If you’re one of the lucky few that got to attend MJ Flight School over the weekend, you might’ve spotted the man himself wearing some unreleased footwear during his presentations. On his feet was an Air Jordan 11 Low in a solid red and gum outsole, somewhat similar to the “Navy/Gum” pair that hit stores earlier this Summer. Is this an indication of a release next Summer? Only time will tell. MJ Flight School is still underway and runs from July 23rd through August 2nd, with registration still open for the event, so stay tuned for more potential MJ sightings.

So Foamposites are $250 now:smh:

Been that way for a couple of years. They call them premium :hmm: They used to do it for all the ones with graphics like the gone fishings. Suedes were $250 also. The holograms were $230 though. Nike just makes up prices it seems.

These look way better in this photo than on the Nike website.

I got a feeling when I see someone with these on I'm going to be upset.

Looks like a well put together shoe.

Either the lighting or photoshop on the pics were... well, how do I say it... exaggerated

They're nowhere near that blue, I think they overdid on the dramatics

Nike Basketball is lowering the prices on its signature basketball models. The LeBron 14 will be $175 instead of the usual $200 entry level price according to IcySole.com on Twitter. This news comes on the heels of the KD 9’s own price cut to $150 USD even though the shoe utilizes a premium Flyknit construction. With Under Armour’s Steph Curry line showcasing affordable prices across the board as well as the resurgence of adidas Hoops thanks to the help of their Boost cushion system, perhaps Nike felt that a more accessible price point would be better for business. What do you expect to see in theNike LeBron 14? Let us know if you’re excited about the price cut in the comments section below and stay tuned for more LeBron updates right here on Sneaker News.

My 5s just showed up at my front door.
The back sole is pretty damn blue.
Most 5s and 6s recently have been like this though.
