Nike LeBron 9 Elite “Miami Vice” Ultimate Gallery by Sneakerbox

Kaczala — Thu, 17 May 2012 09:45:02 +0000

Here’s another look at the upcoming Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite “Miami Vice”. It’s about the tenth zillion time that we profile this South Beach themed shoe, but the new photos will definitely make you awe. Even if you’re not a fan of these shoes. The level of detail is amazing. There are so many pics that I had to split the post into two pages so be sure to check them out both. If you need a reminder, which is doubtful, the Wolf Grey/Mint Candy-New Green-Pink Flash colorway of the Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite will be release on June 2nd, 2012. Unlike the Taxi colorway, they will be available at Nike’s online store – nikestore.com and other major retailers. This is a limited release so don’t hesitate once you see that add to cart button.

Upcoming Nike Zoom Soldier VI (6) 525015-600 Red/Black/Grey

Kaczala — Wed, 16 May 2012 22:38:10 +0000

Joining the Grey, Black and Blue colorway is the presented Red, Black, and Grey version of the Nike Zoom Soldier VI. Other colorways that are slated to drop later this year were already previewed here. The Zoom Soldier VI goes back to the basics. After using Zoom Air / Max Air cushioning for the Soldier IV and V, the VI features bottom loaded Zoom in the heel and top loaded Zoom in the forefoot. By default, the Soldier line is significantly lighter than the main LeBron James signature collection, but the upcoming sixth installment is supposed to be the lightest ever. What’s your take on this futuristic looking LeBron shoe?

Pacers Handle Miami Heat First Home Loss in 2012 NBA Playoffs

Kaczala — Wed, 16 May 2012 12:48:20 +0000

The Indiana Pacers defeated the Miami Heat 78-75 in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals, tying the series at 1. The Pacers had four players score in double-figures, led by forward David West’s 16 points and 10 rebounds. Guard George Hill added 15 points while Danny Granger contributed 10 and Paul George 10. Heat forward LeBron James led all scorers with 28 points and Dwyane Wade finished with 24, but it wasn’t enough. Miami was playing without forward Chris Bosh (stomach), and received little help from the supporting cast. LeBron was running on fumes by the end and missed two key free throws that could have changed the course of the game. “The game is not lost or won with two free throws. But I definitely want to come through for my teammates. So I’ll get an opportunity again. I know I’ll be at the line again in that situation. Just go up and make ‘em.”

The Showcase: LeBron “South Beach” Family (Shoes, Slides, Socks)

Kaczala — Tue, 15 May 2012 20:56:09 +0000

One of the great things about LeBron James playing in Miami is… the South Beach theme. It’s one of the most popular, most wanted, and unfortunately most expensive sneaker themes on the market these days. Introduced in 2010, Nike released their first South Beach shoe to launch the Nike LeBron 8. Along with the shoes came a limited “It’s Good to be The King” t-shirt (shout out to osneaker.com!). This season, they released the LeBron Air Slide and LeBron 9 P.S. Elite, both using the eye-catching Green, Black and Pink color scheme. Finding any of these at retail is considered a miracle. Similar to other limited 9′s, the South Beach aka Miami Vice style got some matching socks from Nike Basketball. Like most or their LeBron socks – Galaxys, Freegums, Chinas, Hornets, Taxi, Floridians – the “Ocean Drive” style is limited so you won’t find them at regular stores. I was able to avoid re-sell offers on eBay and found a pair at rockemsocks. Continue reading for a gallery presenting all South Beach products on a nice family portrait.

Nike Basketball Matching Tee and Socks for Nike LeBron 9 “Taxi”

Kaczala — Tue, 15 May 2012 17:36:28 +0000

This season Nike Basketball has started matching their special edition shoes with just as special Nike Elite basketball socks and t-shirts. And by special I mean limited so they’re pretty hard to find. Here’s a Limited Edition Nike LeBron 9 “Taxi” Elite Shirt & Socks combo. These items were sold at American Airlines Arena for Game One of the Heat vs Pacers series. The theme of the shirt and Nike dri-fit socks is for the LeBron 9 Elite Maize shoe, which is also knows as “Taxi”. The shirt and socks feature a checkered top with yellow center section with palm trees tying theme back to Miami. Additionally, a headband featuring the new LeBron logo with the words MVP on one side and the Miami Heat logo on the other completes the set. Search for “lebron taxi socks” on eBay if you’d like to get a pair.

Kaczala — Mon, 14 May 2012 21:13:05 +0000

LeBron James isn’t the only one who’s been wearing his own signature shoes in the 2012 NBA Playoffs. James seems to prefer the Elite version of the Nine, but other players who wore the regular Nike LeBron 9 during the regular season continue the push in the Post Season. The list includes Eric Bledsoe of the Los Angeles Clippers with Xmas’, George Hill of the Indiana Pacers who chose Freegums, and Al Harrington and Ty Lawson of the Denver Nuggets, who opted for LeBron 9 iD, Mango and Cool Grey styles, respectively. Big thanks to you big dummy of NikeTalk for the help with photos.

Closer Look at James’ Nike LeBron 9 MVP Player Exclusive

Kaczala — Mon, 14 May 2012 08:42:08 +0000

After receiving his third NBA Most Valuable Player award prior last night’s game it was fitting for LeBron James to celebrate by wearing a personalized version of his regular season shoes – Nike LeBron 9. James wore his Miami Heat themed sneakers in the first half and scored only 6 points, but then he switched back to the Elite version for the second half when he did much more damage with 26 points to end up with 32 for the game. LBJ’s version of the MVP colorway is slightly different from the production version that was unveiled by Nike. His Player Exclusive comes with a gold MVP plate instead of Yellow on the back of the shoe. More detailed photos after the break.
