It Takes $320 to Customize the Nike LeBron 12 Elite

When Nike did the Elite version of the LeBron 10 PS two years ago all records for the prices of basketball shoes have been shuttered. The prices started at $300 for the regular version up to almost $400 for the Nike+ Sportspack. Last season there was no Nike iD for the LeBron 11 Elite and nobody complained, really. This season Nike is looking to allow fans to personalize the LeBron 12 Elite, but again we come back to the discussions on how much can you spend on a pair of basketball shoes. Nike will be asking $320 for the Elite 12’s. Are you going to answer the call? Personally, I’m not so eager after the last year’s Elites, which were more of a downgrade compared to the regular model.

  • Might just do a 'what the' theme for these. Would anybody want the other size 9.5 pair if I did?

  • I used to get all 3-4 pairs because they were easy to find on big discounts... after relatively short periods of time... I'll do the same this year... 1 pair if they prices won't drop soon and big and all pairs if they drop at least 40%.
