Both shoes presented below have been already released in Europe. They are not Euro-exclusives though, and are about to make debut on the global stage. Best thing about them is… they are General Release models. This means you won’t have to jump through hoops nor pay enormous resell prices to get them. Although the official release is on Saturday, they have already popped up in several places. Check your local Nike retailer or visit one of following online stores – OSU: pys.com, kix-files.com, sneakerhead.com, eastbay.com, nikestore.com – Royal: pys.com, kix-files.com, eastbay.com, nikestore.com. Both GR VIs have one great thing in common. They feature a 3M reflective midsole, which is always a winner. The White/Red is also the Home colorway of the Ohio State Buckeyes basketball team. For detailed photos check our previous posts: OSU, Royal. Nike calls them East & West, but since the Ohio State colorway, with Brutus inside, being West doesn’t make any sense to us, we will stick with the original names.

ea and im not surprised that most of these "fake-a$$" Ohio St fans dont know - you people know who you are.
the Maize/Varsity CW is for Michigan University, and the homes are obviously for OSU. the 2 schools have one of the greatest College Football rivalries EVER. it all stems from a border dispute in the late 1800's, the dispute over the 'east-west' line that runs east and west from lake michigan dividing the 2 states.
i dont get why lebron is sponsoring such a hated rival as Michigan, but as a Badger i can't stand either team (and secretly hate myself for collecting some OSU shoes) so whatever...
^ now I know why I didn't like the royal cws being born and raised a buckeye, also the osu look 100x better in person
