Beaverton Employee Exclusive – Zoom LeBron VI “World Tour” »

On the 17th of July, 2008 LeBron James visited Nike Headquarters at Beaverton, Oregon. Here are some pictures from that event. During his extracurricular activities (non-Olympics related), he rocked a special LeBron “World Tour” t-shirt. However, there was something much more special about that day. Many of Nike’s employees received a special Nike Zoom LeBron VI edition, created exclusively to commemorate King James’ appearance. The so-called “World Tour” aka Beaverton ZLVI features Black mesh upper, Black Patent Leather toe box (with sparkles), multicolored triple stitching midsole, gradient Nike Swoosh, Red/Yellow outsole and some additional Orange details. Also, the event’s details (BEAVERTON, OR – JULY 17, 2008) are stitched on behind the tongue. The whole Yellow/Orange/Red/Black combination says one thing only… they are ON FIRE! A possible release is very unlikely, but I would like to see them hit the streets, instead of the usual and boring at times SVSMs, CTKs, etc. Photos courtesy of Sneakervault.
