This is a pass for me. Just got 2 pairs of the all stars and am looking to get dunkmans and one of the eastbay exclusives. Don't feel like going through the headache to get these also.
Along with the Red Carpet and Dunkman this is my favorite pair. I am so glad Akron is one of LeBron schools. Hopefully I will get my pair soon :smile:
I would like to get an extra set of Gold laces tho.
Still waiting on the cool gray/wht joints??
These Akrons are ok, but if they want to release one, it needs to be the UK ones! the dunkmans are nice too tho!
Cool grey and white joints are out now at citysole.com they will ship tomorrow! and they are on sale.
I like the Akrons too.. My dude in dallas is getting me a pair.. we need a hoh here in cleveland.. Hey Kaz I got the home and away SVSM 7's so if you want better pics hit me up..

Greg I sent you an email, but it didn't go through. Feel free to send me pics to kaczalas(at)gmail.com. Thanks!
ok thanks. i just know that the kobe V USC and Duke are releasing too so all the bron fans AND kobe fans will be there so i figured it would be tough to get in there and get my pair.
im falling out of love with these...i dont know what it is....still a very nice shoe though.
The Akron's are always a step-above the other school releases! These are phenomenal! Alas, just ordered my Dunkmans so these won't be mine... but I think they're top-2 VII's this year. Dunkman #1 Akrons #2
