Nike Zoom LeBron VI (6) “Think Pink” Player Exclusive »

For our Valentine’s Day special let’s take a detailed look at yet another “Think Pink” shoe from the LeBron James signature collection. Nike has made a habit of releasing Pink LeBrons only in Kids sizes, unless they’re a part of the Soldier line when they do drop in Women’s too (which after 1.5+ size conversion equals Men’s). The presented shoe is the Nike Zoom LeBron VI, which is a true Player Exclusive. It didn’t release to public in any shape or form. This pair was spotted on eBay couple weeks ago and seems like those are the only pics on the net.

Throwback Thursday: Nike Zoom LeBron VI All-Star Exclusive »

The whole All-star collection from Nike X LeBron James is available here. Although it’s already the 8th installment and the main theme stays the same (Bluish Eastern Conference), each shoe possesses its own identity. This year’s edition features a Royal Blue faded upper. It was two years ago when the fade element was introduced to LeBron’s ASG kicks for the first time. The Zoom LeBron VI All-star edition consisted of various shades of blue with Navy Blue, Light Blue and Royal Blue fade around the toebox. See more pics after the break.

Zoom Power – Black/White/Red & White/Navy & Black/Anthracite »

Ahhh… the Zoom Power. The only LeBron shoe that didn’t make it. We’ve profiled all three sample colorways, especially the Black/White/Red pair, but new photos have surfaced to the Internet. Now you can get a detailed look at the whole group. Zoom Power was the prototype model for the Zoom LeBron VI. As you may know the initial design was scrapped in favor of this. Continue reading for more photos.

Throwback Thursday: A Second Look at the Stewie Zoom LeBron VI »

The Stewie Six was a special make up created by Nike for LeBron James… exclusively. Of course the inspiration for these shoes was Stewie Griffin – a cartoon character from Seth MacFarlane’s “The Family Guy”. Absolutely animated and dressed in Stewie’s signature colors, the LeBron VI’s are cell shaded and feature deep black outlines that are stylistically Family Guy. The toe portion of the shoe is dressed in Stewie’s yellow shirt and matching red overalls, and the blue accents on the midsoles are derived from his shoes. His evil eyes are hiding behind the tongue. While these kicks are definitely awesome, they are considered to be unreleased samples and will most likely never see the daylight. Click here to see the previous photos.

Throwback Thursday: LeBron VI (6) L.A. Rainbow Dunkman Sample »

Unlike the Air Max LeBron VII, it seems like the last year’s model of LeBron’s signature shoes came out in a significantly bigger number of colorways. Don’t get me wrong, I know it’s one of those things when we complain about too many shoes one year (ZLVI) and then we’re not completely satisfied when they do the opposite (AMLVII). Still, the VII has been released in 15+ different variations (not counting all MTAG’s), but feels like Nike took a break slightly too soon. Maybe it’s because we want to see some of those beautiful shoes from the Heroes Pack or any of the HWC’s available to public. Either way, our last hope is the MVP edition. Of course there’s no official information, because the award needs to be officially announced first. However, I don’t see it any other way. The question is will we see a new shoe or one of these. Check out new photos of the Zoom LeBron VI in a Los Angeles colorway from last year’s City Pack. One of those energy releases we are missing this season. It’s the Sample version featuring a “Rainbow Dunkman” logo on the back of the shoe.

Throwback Thursday: Nike Zoom LeBron VI (6) Fairfax Home PE »

We are just couple steps away from adding the Fairfax theme to NLB’s The Collection. It’s a little bit harder to complete it due to the limitedness of Fairfax LeBrons. Actually, all school colorways that are not being released to public are a tough task. If you do own any of them please contact us via our contact form. We’d appreciate some help. Anyway, thanks to T.u.L_09, we can take a closer look at the Nike Zoom LeBron VI Fairfax PE. It’s the Home version, which interestingly enough was also worn by LeBron James in an actual NBA game. See the timeline for more information. Continue reading for more photos.

Throwback Thursday: Where Real Cavs Colorways Happen – The Chalk »

I love this shoe. The Six was awesome on its own, but this colorway made things special. It’s unique, has a story behind it, and I’m sure fans in Cleveland were thrilled to get a true Cavaliers colorway from Nike. That’s why I like the Akron edition so much, cause it’s also a nice match with Cavaliers’ alternate – Navy Blue – uniforms. Too bad LeBron James did wear them only once, but at least they made it a Chalk party. Anyway, what’s not to like? Patent Leather toebox? Chalk “spilled” all over the shoe? 3M reflective midsole imitating Hardwood when hit by the lights? Awesome! Enjoy our new photographs featuring the Chalk Six and some real Cavs Chalk straight from The Q.

Wearing Brons – Blast from the Past… Mo Wears LeBron VI Low »

Wearing low tops has become trendy recently. Nike is trying convince players than low cut sneakers can offer protection too. There is some truth in that theory, but there’s also a lot of marketing behind it. Anyway, LeBron’s lows have usually been received as casual shoes, but those who have tried them on court should know they can handle basketball too… especially the legendary Zoom LeBron II. However, the latest installment – Zoom LeBron VI Low – is not too shabby either as it is very light and offers double stacked Zoom Air units. Mo Williams, who suffered a shoulder injury in January, has been wearing the ZLVI Low since his return. Shoulders have nothing to do with ankles, but seems like Mo is doing pretty good. I had to double check when I first saw him back. After all it’s been almost a year since they dropped.
