USA Basketball United We Rise LeBron Six Showcase »

Lately, it’s been all about the City Pack VIs, the Chalk edition, and some of the upcoming models (including two GRs and several exclusives, f.e. HWCs). But, let’s take a look back at the shoe that started the whole Six fever. After all the United We Rise Zoom LeBron VI, was the first to debut on the Hardwood, the Internet, and in stores too. Although, it was not easy to get a pair they have become very popular… probably because it’s the closest we have to the actual Olympic Gold Medal sneaker. They were released as a limited GR in Asia, and a Quickstrike in the U.S (NDC, NikeTown, House of Hoops). LeBron James tried to bring them back by wearing the Witness Gold edition on his birthday. If you’re still looking for a pair your best chance is ebay. See the USAB UWR ZL6 gallery after the jump.
