We offer compliments to an Elite edition, while two Sportswear selections receive constructive criticism. What?d we select?

Elite White\/Metallic Gold<\/p>\n<p>Are retros getting redundant? Is quality a concern? Common qualms are addressed and Crayola colorways are avoided on the Nike LeBron 9 P.S.
