Paying homage to LeBron James’ alma mater – the Saint Vincent Saint Mary High School – is this new colorway for the Fighting Irish basketball team. Unfortunately, seems like Nike is not planning to release any of the High School styles this season. Be sure to check out previous shoes from the SVSM collection.

Kaczala — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 18:48:50 +0000

Nike Basketball has officially unveiled key colorways celebrating its pinnacle players competing in the 2012 NBA All-Star Game in Orlando later this month. Taking inspiration from space exploration, the collection features a galactic theme on the LeBron 9, Nike Zoom KD IV and Nike Zoom Kobe VII. Graphics pay homage to the supernova – arguably the most powerful force in the universe – while the outsoles glow in the dark and individual “mission patches” adorn each shoe as a nod to the accolades astronauts receive. All three editions will be available at select retailers and at NikeStore.com beginning February 25th.

LeBron James, whose home state of Ohio features more astronauts than any other state, will wear a special version of the LeBron 9 that takes inspiration from the orange space suit. Orange, the most visible color to the human eye, helps identify astronauts. Functional graphics “Pull For Lockdown” are featured on the midfoot harness, while the materials are inspired by space suit textures. LeBron’s mission patch, an honor astronauts receive from space exploration duties, is a lion shooting through space.

Official Release Date for LeBron 9 “All-Star” is Februrary 24th

A release date surrounding the NBA All-Star Weekend is always the most logical, but it’s nice to have a confirmation. And after weeks of waiting we finally have one for the upcoming Nike LeBron 9 “All-Star” Game shoes. The “Galaxy” LEBRON 9′s will be released on February 24th, 2012. The Total Orange/Metallic Silver-Team Orange-Mint Candy style will definitely stand out on the court, considering this year’s All-star Game jerseys, but I’m sure sneakerheads won’t mind that. Nobody will have a problem to spot King James even in SD quality of watching the game on a smartphone, that’s for sure. Be sure to follow @nikestore if you don’t want to miss out the drop.

Nike used an interesting color scheme for the design, which is inspired by Ken Griffey Jr. The shoe comes with two sets of laces… Navy and Red, which are reminiscent of the Red Carpet style from a couple of years back.

The Miami Nights edition of the Nike LeBron 9 was definitely a nice surprise.

The design is subtle, but still eye-catching at the same time. Inspired by the bright lights of Miami, this LeBron 9 colorway is dressed in a simple but also vibrant color scheme.
