A closer look at the upcoming Nike Zoom Soldier II »

Check of the new pics of the next Nike LeBron signature sneaker Nike Zoom Soldier II. After the success of the previous version Nike will release its successor. Although the shoes look far different from the strapped predecessors Zoom 20-5-5 and Zoom Soldier, they seem to incorporate what’s best from its older brothers. The ZLS II has perforated areas for maximum breathability just like the 20.5.5 and a lightweight steady construction like the Soldier I. The obvious difference is lack of the straps and back-to-the-roots traditional lacing system. New herringbone pattern gives ultimate traction, which has been a trademark of LeBron’s summer line so far. The sole pattern called “Milkcrate Technology” is inspired by LeBron James’ childhood when he learnt how to play basketball using milkcrate hoops instead of real baskets. The Milkcrate concept was first introduced through the strap of the latest ZLV. The Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier II is said to be released in April as the next LeBron James play off shoe.
