Traditional China based shoe styles have come in one color: red. This year’s Nike LeBron 9 switches up the concept by playing up two motifs: dragons and fire. 2012 is the “Year of the Dragon” in the Chinese zodiac. Represented on the tongue of the LeBron 9 is an image of a colorful dragon. And as everyone knows from personal experience, dragons breathe fire, which infuses the blue color inspiration to this China edition shoe. The color blue is known as the hottest part of a flame and gets some extra burn on the heel pull with the Chinese character for “fire” seen graphically on fire.
