The buzz over the debut of LeBron James’ new sneaker “The LeBron X” is not about the metallic gold Nike check, but the dent it will put in your checking account. The proposed starting price of the Lebron’s could be as much as $3 15, far sur passing any of Jordan’s original price releases. Compared to ma jority the of stu dents income, it will be a choice of paying rent or hav ing fresh feet. According to espn go.com, the sneaker will, in fact, not be that expensive. This could be a valid statement as support from Nike spokesman Brian Strong said the discussed price is inaccurate. “The LeBron X will be launched in the fall at a suggested retail price of $180," Strong said, in a statement. "The initial introduction of the LeBron X will be the red, white and blue Nike+ enabled version and that price is still being set, but will be at a higher price to reflect the Nike+ technology em bedded in the shoes." By Nike+ Technology it refers to Nike Plus system. Zoom Max cushioning and Hyperfuse materials of the shoe. Zoom Max cush ioning is the lightweight durable padding, and foam, which al low the wearer to jump high er. The shoe is made of all Hyperfuse[d] materials, which are supposed to be most the inde- structable materials. The real deal is the Nike Plus Basketball technology; a chip imbedded in the sole, which monitors move ment and speed. That’s right, it tells you how fast you ran. and even tracks your stats, which you can sync in a mobile app. Feeling like a superstar already? Courieivo/msnbc.msnxom Well the Nike+ Basketball technol ogy also measures vertical jumps, quickness and hustle. Finally, after all your hard work is charted off the court, it can be showcased in a virtual game that matches your personal stats with other LeBron wearers around the globe.
