A Second Look at the Early Nike Zoom LeBron VI Sample » We featured this shoe last summer. It’s one of the early stage samples of the Nike Zoom LeBron VI. We profiled the evolution of The Six in our review plus here are some more shots of sample VI’s. Basically after the Zoom Power was scrapped this is how the sixth LBJ shoe was going to look like. It features a different color blocking as the upper part is White and the Toebox is Black. Also, the carbon fiber is much bigger as it reaches the toe box rand up front, while the production model wraps only the heel area. By the way… is you see this colorway online on ebay or etc. please watch out. This colorway was very popular fake wise as there are a lot of counterfeits out there. Do you prefer this color blocking or do you like how the final edition turned out? Pics courtesy of Vulkan.

Two Faces of the Dunkman Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III (3) » The release of the Dunkman ZS3 earlier this month was very surprising, but oh so pleasant. The only downside was a small number of pairs, which sold out very fast. This week this special Mean Green Nike Zoom Soldier III has hit stores in Asia. Considered to be a Quickstrike they are flying off the shelves there too. They are available online at kix-files.com and rmkstore.com, but only couple sizes left. Let’s hope for a restock from Nike, but I guess the rarity is what makes them even more special. Below there is a set of new photos featuring the shoes – couple nice shots presenting the Dunkman silhouette on the top strap and the reflective material on the upper. Notice an error in the signature on the back as the text reads “rignature.” We’ve received reports that some pairs are like that. Courtesy of kenlu.net.

White Midnight Navy Nike Zoom Soldier 3 Hits Retail in China » Among the upcoming Zoom Soldier III styles the White and Navy is definitely one of the most interesting. It’s plain, yes, but at least it’s very practical. Those, who play outdoors always appreciate the use of the dark outsole. As we mentioned before this classic Zoom LeBron colorway is slated for release on 6/12. Lucky those, who live in China, cause dunk.com.cn has just added them to their listing. Be on the lookout on eBay, because once more Asia retailers will get them, that’s where they’ll be.

When All-Star Meets Mr Basketball – New Zoom LeBron V PE » Last week we profiled an unreleased sample version of the Nike Zoom LeBron V… courtesy of lacedheat. The thing about the ZLV was Nike released a relatively small number of PEs (Player Exclusives). We’ve been used to tons of colorways, samples and Special Make Ups, but LeBron James’ fifth signature shoe has leaked in only 36 different models thus far. Apart from General Releases, couple really nice Exclusives (Mr. B, Yankees) and “common” School PEs, only a couple of V’s really stand out – Home PE (both versions) and Hardwood Classic PE. Sure, it’s not like the Zoom LeBron V had the colorway potential comparable with The Six, but it seemed a little odd. Today, we are happy to discover yet another rare ZL5. We don’t know what was the story behind this model, but it seems like the Mr. Basketball has been mixed up with the All-Star edition. You can see Mr B’s lasered upper and ASG’s color scheme. Do you like the output?

LeBron Takes Control as Cavaliers Complete the Sweep on Pistons » James had 36 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 99-78 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Sunday, sweeping the Eastern Conference first-round series. The 24-year-old superstar said his work ethic has been “everything” in a breathtaking career that has surpassed unprecedented hype. “You’re only born with a certain amount of gifts,” he said. “You have to take advantage of them, and put in the work. My work ethic has helped me be the player I am today.” James and the top-seeded Cavs were so efficient against past-its-prime Detroit — earning the only sweep of this postseason — they might be off for more than a week, waiting for Atlanta or Miami to advance. The Cavaliers became the only team to sweep their series in the first round and just the third team to sweep a team by winning each game by a double-digit margin (1980 Celtics and 2004 Pacers). LeBron James led the Cavaliers with 36 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists. He finished the series averaging 32.0 points, 11.3 rebounds and 7.5 assists, becoming just the third player in NBA history to average at least 30 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists in a single postseason series (Larry Bird and Oscar Robertson are the others). James became just the second player in NBA history to accumulate at least 1,300 points, 400 rebounds and 350 assists in his first 50 career postseason games (Oscar Robertson was the other).

Louis Williams of the Philadelpha 76ers has been wearing the Zoom LeBron VI (Black/Royal/Maize, OSU) while Von Wafer of the Houston Rockers has been spotted rocking the Zoom Soldier III (Playoff Edition). Of course some of LBJ’s teammates still can be seen sporting the previous Soldier – ZSII – from time to time.

Nike Zoom Soldier III White Navy Red Grade School Sample » We’ve seen quite a lot of Soldier 3s already, but that’s only a taste of what’s coming. Couple days back we profiled the White and Navy colorway (141), but turns out the sample version was a little different. Below, there’s a GS edition featuring a completely different color blocking. Also, it has that USA vibe as it is a good match with USA Basketball team jerseys. Which one do you prefer? Mens’ version of this one?
