Nike Zoom Soldier III (3) Playoff Pack (POP) Showcase »

2009 NBA Playoffs have given us quite a few pleasant memories. Even though LeBron James is out of the Playoffs, he left his mark. After sweeping his first two opponents he went for 49 points – his new post-season record (on 20/30 shooting) – in the ECF opener. However, it was a loosing effort. In the very next game he made the biggest shot of his professional career with the buzzer beating game winning three pointer. The third performance worthy of NBA’s Most Valuable Player was the Triple Double in Game 5 vs the Orlando Magic. All these big games had one thing in common… the ZSIII POP Edition. That’s right… although The Six MVP edition stole the thunder as the hottest shoe on the market during the Playoffs… the Soldier III Playoff Pack is the one to remember. This Special Zoom Soldier Make Up was prepared exclusively for LeBron James. To celebrate his lifelong love for the game his crest features a nod to his high school Mr. Basketball Ohio honors, a pattern that represents the milk crate that was his first hoop, and the lion head that symbolizes his ferocity and ascent to the throne. We get a lot of questions about the availability of the shoe, but so far it hasn’t been released online. It is available at local Nike accounts. For, those who are desperate to get a pair check eBay as there are several good deals at the moment. More photos after the break. Also, check out the complete 2008-09 Shoes Timeline.
