The New LeBron James Sneakers Will Be Worth $315. Here are LeBron X Photos and Info on a Possible Release Date


LeBron James is having a good year. In the last four months or so, he won his first NBA title and his second Olympic gold medal. Now his name will be attached to one of the most expensive sneakers Nike has ever produced. The new LeBron X will cost $315. James himself won the LeBron X sneaker during the gold medal game at the London Olympics.
The new LeBron X is substantially more expensive than LeBron's last shoe, which retailed for about $175. It's even more expensive than Kanye West's recent sneaker, the Air Yeezy 2 which sold for about $245.

How is Nike justifying the cost for the new LeBron James X sneaker? They say it includes Nike+ technology that can track your workout and features "the same Hyperfuse construction of the LeBron 9's." They've also given practical reasons for the cost bump, which includes a rise in materials and labor. 

When Does the new Nike LeBron X go on sale?


An exact release date has not been given.

Nike has the right to set their price on a product. People are stupid enough to buy that product at that price. What the taxpayer has a right to demand is anyone on public assistance has it reduced by that amount for each pair purchased by that household. The taxpayers should not be supporting lazy people who mooch off the taxpayers because they "supposedly" can't buy food, clothes and other necessities. If you can afford $300+ for a pair of sneakers, then you don't need taxpayer money!
