There Are Exactly ZERO Pairs of Nike LeBron 14 Available in Europe »

Three colorways of the Nike LeBron 14 have been released in the U.S. However, the limited and popular at resale “Out of Nowhere” edition means that if you saw any on the streets / courts it was either the Chasedown or the BHM edition. There are two more styles waiting to drop this month… “Time to Shine” and “University Red”. This means that the whole season will probably end with 5 styles and hopefully some new ones for the Playoffs. That’s far from the usual volume for the Nike LeBron series.

Still… five is better than zero. That’s how many pairs of the LEBRON XIV dropped in Europe so far. I’ve been in contact with NDC Europe and they initally gave me a couple of launch dates, which didn’t pan out, and now they have no idea WHEN or IF fans will finally get a chance to experience the 14’s.

It’s really sad. I understand the delays and all, but frankly Nike doesn’t even seem to care to explain this situation. In general even in the U.S. there’s zero marketing assocaited with the LeBron 14 on Nike’s part. No commercials. No interviews. No media events. No design cues. No technical aspects. Nada. As if the shoe didn’t even exist.

LeBron James is doing some serious damage this season, his on-court PEs are sick. Too bad Nike decied to tank this year.

Check out one of the upcoming colorways. Nike played it safe and gave us a plain University Red edition. At least LBJ wore this 2 times. The shoe drops on March 25th, however, it’s been already postponed once so you never know.
