This shit is Bananas...

Pics of the new Nike Air Max LeBron VIII V2 “Entourage” edition flooded the blogosphere today but a pair of Nike Lebron's isnt cool. You know what's cool? A Johnny Bananas New Era hat!!! I'm not sure if I should be posting this but here goes nothing....

I Used To Get It In Ohio...

Vintage Cavs starter jacket, sz XL, new with tags!! This Cavs logo was used from 1983/84 - 1993/94 back during the Mark Price, Brad Daugherty and Larry Nance days.

I used to pay Kobe...

..but now I pay Lebron! I've actually never bought a pair of Kobe's or Lebron's but these dont look that bad at all. The Nike Air Max Lebron VII is of course Lebron James’ seventh signature shoe with Nike Basketball and this pair is unlike any pair before it as it features a new Nike Air Max 360 air bubble that was specifically designed for this shoe. Additionally most versions of the shoe will feature Nike’s Flywire technology, however this colorway features a woven material on the upper instead giving it more versatility to be rocked off the court. This particular colorway is clean using a simple Black upper mixed with some Baltic Blue and White. No word on when these will be released but expect something later this year when we get closer to the 2009-10. Source

Lebron VI...

Having been unanimously voted in as this season’s Most Valuable Player in the National Basketball League, Nike is paying homage to King James with a special MVP edition of The Six Witness. The shoe features characteristics such as “triple-stitched lateral stability rand and swoosh come in a polished black look, while the collar, forefoot and heel straps get the Witness treatment in bold black letters.” A special t-shirt was also created on a similar note with some bold typeface on the chest. The shoes and shirt will be available at House of Hoops retailers and Nikestore.com. Source

Inspiration...

A week or so ago the Cavs were playing the Raptors when Lebron aka Half Man Half Amazing (I still can believe this kid is 24, its not right!) got a breakaway dunk and did a little Karl Malone tribute with the hand behind the head. Check the video above if you havent seen it yet.
