You might be telling yourself “We saw this colorway already!”. What you see here is actually a sample pair of the Black, Sport Red, White, and Metallic Gold colorway of the Nike SNKRS High LeBron VIII that is currently scheduled for a release at Nike Basketball retailers like Foot Locker. There a few minor differences between this pair and the Black/Varsity Red colorway we’ve been showing you, so let’s start from the top; the borders of the Flywire panel are red, the ‘figure-8’ lace eyelet is gold, the midsole does not feature speckling, the swoosh border is black, and the most Top telltale sign that this is indeed an older issue is the ‘L23′ logo on the heel as well as the bottom sole, since LeBron changed his jersey number from Jordan’s ’23’ to Julius Erving’s ‘6’. Urlfreeze News recently provided a number of release dates for the LeBron VIII and while the Black/Varsity Red colorway will still release on October 26th, there’s a chance that this version – with a few changes needing to be addressed – could released. Take a look at the gallery of images after the jump and let us know which pair – this sample or the releasing version – you prefer.
