Nike LeBron 8 Sales Proving Polls Wrong. Top Selling Basketball Shoe of November! »

Polls and ratings may indicate LeBron James has lost his marketing appeal, but the cash register doesn’t lie. James heads into the holiday season with the best selling basketball shoe and the best selling jersey. In September, The Q Scores Company told CNBC that, thanks to his “Decision,” the general population thought of LeBron in a much more negative light. Yet, Nike’s LeBron 8, which hit stores on Oct.26, is the best selling basketball shoe for the month of November, according to SportsOneSource analyst Matt Powell. Powell said sales of the shoe – which was No. 2 in the entire sports footwear space to the perennial leader the white Air Force 1, generated 20 percent more business than the next most popular basketball shoe that month, the Jordan IX.
