I know its been seen today everywhere from the Wall Street Journal to Fox News that the upcoming tenth edition of the Lebron James signature line of sneakers will retail for $315...
To clarify, the $315 tag will be for the Nike + version of the Lebron X. The regular, general release Nike Lebron X will run around $180.
Nike + was originated to be a running tool, with one sensor acting as a pedometer and measuring time/distance. Now, the Lebron X will feature four pressure sensors in the heel, toe, medial side and lateral side. These sensors use Bluetooth technology to measure performance like its predecessor did for running.
Gimmicky? A bit. Unclear technology? Foggy at best. But definitely buzzworthy. Non-sneaker folks are talking about this shoe today. folks will shell out the additional $135 just to say they did. Trust.
