Nike LeBron 8 V2 “South Beach” Custom

Posted: 20 Jul 2011 11:58 AM PDT

Nike LeBron 8 V2 "South Beach" Custom

The Nike LeBron 8 V2 was undoubtedly the most well-received silhouette in the three-sneaker series of LeBron’s eighth signature shoe; however, the best color scheme was incorporated on the Nike LeBron 8 V1. So, what happens when you combine the best color scheme with the best model? MizzeeCustoms shows us what that would look like by way of his newly-designed Nike LeBron 8 V2 “South Beach” custom design. He also added some distinctive attributes that make us wish this was a general release. The Flywire laced side panels feature an iridescent-like element, and the full-length Air Bag is colored in pink as opposed to Filament Green seen on the V1. Also, this custom design contains the words, ‘It’s Good To Be The King’ on the tongue and a custom Gucci-print insole.

Historical Heat: Shoes that Broke Records and Necks

Breaking an NBA record will get you in the books, but doing so in nice kicks will get you on our site. An elite group of NBA players have managed to make history while rocking with the best. Is it the shoes? With Ray Allen's record breaking PEs set to release this weekend, we take a look back at NBA records that are tied to sick sneakers.

Player: Michael Jordan
Shoe: Air Jordan 1 White/Black-Red
Record: Most Points in an NBA Playoff Game (63)
Date: April 20th, 1986

After missing 64 games during his second season, MJ made up for lost time and lost points dropping one for nearly every DNP against the Boston Celtics. His Game 2 explosion still stands as the most points ever scored in a playoff game. Can't ban the Jumpman.
