Ultra Rare “Haters” Nike Zoom LeBron II Low Sample »

We profiled this Chamber of Fear ZL2 Low PE way back in 2007, but today we have new photos featuring even rarer pair. Other pairs out there don’t have the Sample-Not-For-Resale stamp inside. The Haters Nike Zoom LeBron II Low Player Exclusive is a part of the Chamber of Fear pack, which was Nike’s marketing campaign during LeBron James’ second NBA season. It was created in order to promote James’ Nike Zoom LeBron II. The whole concept was based King James battling 5 stages representing him common “enemies” – ‘Hype’, ‘Temptation’, ‘Haters’, ‘Complacency’ and ‘Self-doubt’. Nike’s “Chamber of Fear” campaign starring James included TV, print and outdoor ads, all of which paid homage to various Asian film styles including the 1970s Hong Kong kung-fu movies and Japanese anime. Despite a positive reception in the United States, particularly the “Fo Shizzle” scene, it was banned in China for being offensive. So far 4 of the COF II Lows were seen online. New photos of the Haters after the break. Props to Sole Supreme for sharing!
