Throwback Thursday: Nike LeBron 8 “112 Pack” PEs & Interview »

When Jason Petrie designed his very first shoe for LeBron James – the Nike Air Max LeBron VII – his signature line has started drawing more attention than before. That’s also when DJ Clark Kent and Nike Basketball collaborated for the first time and created the “112 Pack” colorway. Apparently, he’s also behind the All Black Everything PE – a reference to friendship between King James and Jay-Z. Following the success of the first 112 LeBrons, DJCK did a repeat for the LeBron 8. The shoe sports a black suede base with tonal elephant print panels, but there are at least two different versions of the shoe – one with 1 elephant print panel, and the other one with 2. Unfortunately none of those will be released to the general public, but let us know how you feel about them in the comments below. Continue reading for more pics and a video interview with DJCK on his Nike LeBron collaborations.

Nike LeBron Air Slide “South Beach” Available at Eastbay »

Pretty much everything labeled as South Beach is an instant sell out these days. Even if it’s not even a shoe. Last month Nike released the Nike LeBron Air Slide in Retro/Filament Green-Pink Flash-Retro. There are four colorways available, but that’s the one that has been very difficult to find for the MSRP of $60, or at least anything remotely related to that price. They sold out instantly at nikestore.com last month, but fortunately Eastbay has them avialable at eastbay.com If you couldn’t justify paying $100+ for a pair of flip flops on eBay here’s your second chance.

Nike Air Max LeBron 8 Denim “James Dean” PE – New Photos »

Most of Nike LeBron 8 Player Exclusive colorways, and there’s been a lot of them, were designed for basketball. However, Nike has created several lifestyle make ups. Initially, the Denim version gathered some mixed reviews, which probably changed after LeBron James wore them during the 2012 NBA All-Star Media Session. Bron matched this well with a nice dark blue flannel and black jeans. Here are some detailed photos of the shoes.

Nike Air LeBron Slide – Wolf Grey/Black – Available at Eastbay »

If you didn’t give into the hype and you’re somehow resistant to the South Beach trend, here are some good news. Eastbay has just released a new colorway of the Nike Air LeBron Slide in Wolf Grey/Wolf Grey-Black. Instead of paying double or even triple for the South Beach Slides on eBay and support greedy re-sellers, head over to Eastbay where you can get the new Flip Flops for $60. From what I hear they’re quite comfortable, but it’s no surprise with Air Max cushioning on board.

Nike Air Max LeBron 8 V/2 “Miami Heat” Player Exclusive »

January was slow kicks-wise so it was a good time for LeBron James to break out some new LEBRON 9 Player Exclusives, which he did. Among the newly introduced PEs were Aways, Homes plus an additional Black & White version. Basically, the same groups of PEs as the last season’s LEBRON 8 V2′s. Among several Player Exclusive styles, which have surfaced afterwards is this new Miami Heat inspired colorway. King James didn’t get a chance to wear these in an actual NBA game, but it would be a nice match with Heat uniforms. Shout out to @artaphax for sharing.

PE Spotlight: Nike LeBron 8 “Post Season” Navy PE »

Last season, Nike released a couple of nice colorways of the Nike LeBron 8 P.S. including a special NBA Finals make up. LeBron James has also unveiled some special colorways of his own, especially during the lockout basketball games in Philly, L.A. and the CP3 All-Star Game. However, what you see below is a new, previously unseen, version of the LeBron 8 P.S.. which comes in a Navy & White colorway. Thanks to KC KING T9X of NikeTalk for sharing!

Jason Petrie Unveils Unreleased Nike LeBron 8 “Miami Nights” Mid »

Jason Petrie has just posted yet another sample colorway from his vault of Nike LeBron sneakers. This time it’s the Nike LeBron 8 V/2 in a very familiar colorway… the so-called Miami Nights or Flamingos, which he probably would have preferred. According to JP, the concept for these Miami inspired kicks, which were released as low-tops, was initially a Mid version. Both of them are nice, but would you prefer the Mids over the actual store product? Actually, my only regret is that they were far too limited. Via @sevenzro.
