This Varsity Maize style, also known as Taxi, will be available at Nike Basketball retailers, but nikestore.com won’t be selling these. Eastbay will have limited pairs, but your best bet in this case is checking with your local spot. The Taxi LeBron 9 is inspired by the Miami Heat’s alternate colors.

Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite “Taxi” Official Release (No Online!) »

According to the ongoing poll, the Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite “Taxi” is your second favorite colorway trailing only the Miami Vice / South Beach make up. It’s going to be released on May 12th, 2012. However, according to nikestore.com it won’t be available online! Right now their launch list states “05/12/12 LeBron 9 P.S. Elite (NOT ON NIKESTORE.COM)“. Even the more popular Miami Vice will be released at NDC in June, this makes the Varsity Maize colorway that much harder to track down. It’s best to keep an open eye for other online locations / boutiques. I will keep you posted.

Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite Varsity Maize/Black Official Images »

According to Jason Petrie – the lead designer for Nike’s LeBron James collection – the Varsity Maize colorway of the Nike LeBron 9 PS was designed in order to “push the Miami Heat colors in a new way, and maybe even get the team to rock yellow if they wanted. But ultimately it was just to take a fresh spin on the Miami Heat color palette”. The mission has been definitely accomplished. The shoes come out in May, but it’s still unlikely for LeBron James to wear them in the NBA Playoffs. He will definitely showcase a couple of other PEs. Checkout Nike’s official images after the break.

Upcoming Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite Varsity Maize – New Images »

After moving away from the Soldier line for the Playoffs and wearing a Post Season version of his last two signature shoes, Nike continues this direction with the Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite. Unlike the previous 2 times it’s not about making the shoes lighter (9 P.S. is almost exactly as heavy/light as the regular model), but upgrading the materials. The performance has been enhanced with the use of Carbon Fiber, Kevlar and Pro Combat inner sleeve. All this to help LeBron James win that elusive first NBA championship. The presented “Taxi” colorway won’t be paired with the Miami Heat uniforms, but it has been making noise ever since the first photos surfaced the Internet. It’s still uncertain if nikestore.com will carry these, but Eastbay has already confirmed a limited size run on May 12th. Stay tuned for more information once available.

Closer Look at Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite in Varsity Maize / Black »

As the NBA Playoffs begin to get underway next weekend, LeBron James will be breaking out his most expensive sneaker yet in the $250 Nike LeBron 9 Elite. With a sizable carbon fiber support wing along the upper and helpings of Kevlar support cables throughout, James, designer Jason Petrie and the Nike Basketball team are hoping that the 9 Elite will also be the shoe he will finally win his very first championship in. While he’ll be rocking both white and black base versions of the shoe with gold accenting, and perhaps an all red PE for a game or two, we most likely won’t be seeing him in this colorway launching next May. “Unfortunately, I don?t think Riles is going to let them wear the yellow,” sighs Petrie. But will you be coping on May 12th, 2012?

Preview of Upcoming Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite “Varsity Maize” »

It’s hard to compete with energy colorways like the South Beach. Still, it’s very difficult to pick the weakest link among all 4 colorways of the Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite. Home and Away styles are simple, but very appealing. The upcoming Varsity Maize colorway is a different approach with the use of bright Yellow upper and Red details. The Bumblebees aren’t not the most obvious match for the Miami Heat, but I’m sure LeBron James would make it work. Via @pr_again.

Sneak Peek: Nike LeBron 9 Lows “Cyber” and “Entourage” »

There are about 10 different colorways of the Nike LeBron 9 Low scheduled to drop in the upcoming months. So far we’ve seen only two of them – Easter and White/Black – in real photos. Fortunately we are closer to the release and some new photos have surfaced the blogosphere… or in this case twitter to be exact. The new photos feature the Obsidian/Cyber-White-Blue Grey and the “Entourage” look-a-like (which simply means Royal Blue/Yellow) styles. Photos via @jose_STFU.
