LeBron James kicked off his Asia tour in Beijing earlier this week. Nike Basketball took this opportunity to launch the Nike LeBron X+, but so far only in China. We still don’t know what’s the exact price for the Nike Plus enhanced pack, which has become a hot topic. I believe it’s going to be $290, because the $110 extra is what Nike did for the Hyperdunk and Lunar TR1. Also, Nike said that only 20% of colorways will be Nike+, but they kick things off with a USA Basketball version. Too bad for all those fans who want to get this patriotic colorway, but don’t have an intend to track how high they jump. The LeBron X+ has arrived in the Gold Medal colorway, but it’s not what LeBron James did actually wear in the Olympics. The retail version includes a diamond cut Gold Swoosh along with a gold-covered lion lace jewel.

the hell the usa colorway drops in china first???
Same thing happened 4 years ago. It's doesn't have to make sense anymore, I guess. Fortunately, USA will get them.
How the hell CHINIESE can afford it!?
What a disgrace. First Nike bones legit LeBron fans by catering to the bandwagoners down in Miami with the Champions pack and now they release the US of freaking A+ pair in China, our biggest financial and athletic competitor, first? Wow, Nike, just wow.
