Personally, I believe that the LeBron 12 Elite has failed us… again. However, it seems like LeBron James is willing to give these a try… one last time. The shoes alone are not that bad, but considering the price and the fact that The King has reverted to using the regular version and the way Nike’s been handling the case, by saying nothing, paints a picture that’s far from ideal. It’s really too bad cause the first two iterations were really considered a true upgrade and even the colorways were good enough to put sneakerheads on notice. Remember the Miami Vice Elite 9’s or the White/Gold Elite 10’s? Well, I doubt you’ll remember any of the Elite 12’s. Some say LeBron is superstitious now, but I don’t buy that he’s become that way after 12 years in the league. With all that said seeing King James practice in an undisclosed version of the Nike LeBron XII Elite does give us a little hope for the Elite 12’s appearing in the NBA Finals, but I won’t hold my breath.
