PE Spotlight: Nike LeBron X USA Basketball “Red Swoosh” »

This is how King James rocked his USA Basketball LeBron X’s in the Gold Medal game during the 2012 Olympic Games in London. And this is how Nike released them a couple of months later. Personally, I prefer the original version, but still think the Gold Medal colorway is one of the better ones this season. Basically, the only major difference between the two is the Red Swoosh seen on James’ Player Exclusive model and Gold metallic swoosh on the GR (putting aside the lacelock, of course). However, turns out it goes a long way. Similar to all other regular colorways, which suffer a lot from the flat-Swoosh syndrome.
