Nike LeBron 8 "Bruce Lee" customs

Need another reason to love Bruce Lee? Here you go. With last year’s LeBron 8 as the base, Laptop LaSane went all out with a custom designed centered around the famed martial artist. A yellow base is highlighted by red accents, red laces, red splashes on the soles and a red-eyed dragon on the tongue. Sadly, these will probably never be available. Read More »

Charley Steiner, with a tie around his forehead, yelling, “FOLLOW ME! FOLLOW ME TO FREEDOM!” Read More »
