Nike LeBron VII Low Rumor Pack – Cleveland Browns Showcase »

The new 360 Air Max LeBron VII Low is about to make its debut in less than a week, but let’s take a closer look at the other model. It’s the Cleveland Browns inspired colorway from the so called “Rumor Pack“. Like we’ve stated before, the regular Nike LeBron VII Low is more of a casual than a basketball shoe, however, it’s still possible to play in them. They are fairly light (14.40 oz. in size 10) and very comfortable straight out of the box. Apart from poor ankle support, there’s really nothing else that would dismiss them on the court. I wonder how will they compare with the 360 Max Air version, but apart from the common denominator – LeBron VII – they don’t share many similarities. If you’re looking for a pair visit nikestore.com. They are still available for sale… both RP shoes and regular styles. More photos after the break.

Releasing Now: Nike LeBron VII (7) P.S. USA Basketball Edition »

As it was announced couple weeks ago, today marks the premiere of the last Nike LeBron VII P.S. colorway. It’s the fourth version behind the Black/White/Red, White/Black/Red (POP), and the Summit Lake Hornets styles. The new colorway implements White, Navy and Red, which suggests it was made in order to commemorate USA Team Basketball. This is a common occurrence for Nike to drop U.S.A. inspired colorways around the summer… especially with the 2010 FIBA World Championship scheduled for this August/September. You can find the shoes at your local Nike spot or online at nikestore.com. Please don’t mind catalog pics at NDC… continue reading for actual photos presenting the latest LeBron James shoes, which he did wear once during this year’s NBA Playoffs.

Air Max LeBron VII Low – White/Gold – Debuts on June 4th ($140) »

According to Nike’s official online store – NDC – the Air Max version of the Nike LeBron VII Low will be released on 6/4/10. The first colorway scheduled to drop is the White/Metallic Gold, but the Dunkmans are also expected to follow up this summer. That’s the only two we’ve seen so far. There’s already a bunch of regular VII Lows, without the 360 Air Max unit, but the new shoe is coming to take its place. Now it’s time for some bad news. Although it’s a low-top shoe, the MSRP for the Air Max LeBron VII Low is $140. That’s a lot. That’s probably the most expensive “cut off” ever. The message with the non-360 version was clear… it’s a nice casual wear shoe for the right price ($95). The new AMLVII Low is supposed to be playable for basketball, I think, but for the same price you can get the LeBron VII P.S. Anyway, I don’t expect Nike to go crazy on the colorways, so maybe with only two styles announced so far, fans won’t mind adding another LeBron James sneaker to their collection. What do you think?

LeBron Anatomy – Nike Air Zoom Generation Low Dissection »

The Mid version of the Nike Air Zoom Generation has already been cut into pieces. Now it’s time to see what’s inside the Low-tops. The main difference is, of course, lack of the Zoom Air unit in the forefoot. Additionally, there’s no Carbon Fiber midfoot plate, which is also expected with the usual budget approach to lows. What is the same is the Nike Air in the heel. Continue reading for more gruesome photos after the break.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII (7) Fairfax Home PE – New Photographs »

New photos featuring the latest Fairfax PE have surfaced. It’s the Home version again. If anybody knows where to find the Aways please do contact us. You will be contributing to The Collection. Anyway, let’s take a closer look at the Homes. It’s a predominantly White colorway with a contrasting Red Air Max unit, big Red Swoosh and criss-cross Red/Yellow Flywire threads. The toebox wraparound is made of Patent Leather. The usual L23 logo on the back of the shoes is replaced by the Fairfax sign. It’s a Player Exclusive colorway and unless you play for the Lions… these won’t be easy to find/get. Continue reading for more photographs.

Nike Air Max LeBron VII NBA All-Star Game Exclusive Showcase »

Recently, most of the talk about the VII has been focused around what we didn’t get from Nike. However, in all honesty, we did get some nice shoes. After all there were 15+ different colorways released. While we still hope the MVP’s will be the final pair to drop, let’s take a closer look at LeBron’s All-Star Game Exclusive. This season Nike did a great job utilizing Dallas’ unique atmosphere. You can feel the Texas western theme as the main inspiration here – f.e. wood grain pattern on the upper and special leather patches. The make up was very bright this year (Chlorine Blue), which is something entirely new. Usually shoes are an exact match with the uniforms, but not this time. Nike was clearly focused on bringing more colors to life. All of the graphics on the upper are 3M reflective, which gives a very unique look when hit by light. Continue reading for a detailed showcase featuring the All-Star Nike Air Max LeBron VII.

King City Classic / King James Shooting Stars Nike LeBron VII PE »

King City Classic is a LeBron James-sponsored Nike basketball tournament. It gathers top high school players in the country in an exciting tournament format. The next chapter begins July 8-9, 2010. On the other side the King James Shooting Stars Classic is a massive AAU-affiliated youth basketball tournament. Last month it kicked off for the fifth straight year. Apparently, LeBron James who supports four King James Shooting Stars teams (coached by Dru Joyce II), is a sponsor as well. This usually means there are some special kicks involved. Last year it was a special colorway of the ZLVI for the KJSS‘s. KCC‘s also got some nice kicks (ZS3). This season there is a special make up of the Air Max LeBron VII designed for LBJ’s tournament teams. It’s a Black/White/Red colorway, but it’s very much different from the initial model, which also consists of these colors. KJSS’s join the unreleased pack. Thanks to Greg M. and amazing1 for sending the photos.

Wearing Brons – Diana Taurasi’s Nike LeBron VII Phoenix Mercury PE »

Exactly one year ago (that’s weird) Diana Taurasi of the Phoenix Mercury introduced her special Zoom LeBron VI PE. As you may already know a lot of WNBA players wear personalized Nike LeBron shoes. However, last season the Zoom Soldier III was the usual weapon of choice… not The Six. Diana was the only one to wear the main signature model. This year, in one single game played by the Mercury, she sported a new Player Exclusive version – Air Max LeBron VII – James’ 2009-2010 regular season shoes. It’s a White and Purple (Home) colorway, but it’s something we don’t get to see very often on a LeBron shoe. Seems like there’s also an Away version. Stay tuned for more information.
