An Exclusive Look at the Zoom Power aka The Other Six

Have you ever wondered what happened to the Nike Zoom Power? Me too. Although we won’t be able to give you a definite answer on that matter, at least we can show you what the Nike Zoom LeBron VI could have been like… in detail. There is quite a big number of fans, who prefer this design over the actual production model, but seems like it’s a lost cause now. Moreover, it’s very unlikely for any release of any kind. Also, hearing that LeBron James seems to like the current version of The Six, he might have something to do about it. Featuring the Posite technology, Zoom Power, seemed to be an obvious heir for the throne, but The King and Nike executives went the other way. The real ZLVI performs well on court and has much more casual appeal, but I think I speak for all LeBron fans when I say we wouldn’t mind to check these out. So come on Nike… let’s not allow them to waste. Thanks to our friend Sam for these amazing photos. Enjoy the pics exclusively from NikeLeBron.net.

  • If you really compare the styling of the ZPower and the VI you'll see that Nike clearly went ahead and made the entire clothing line to mirror the ZPower stylings. Primarily focusing on the encircled LBJ logo and the line of the upper. Also, the first 2 editions of Eastbay to sell the VI actually had the ZPower on one page and the VI on it's own feature page. I wanted to call and demand they sell me the ZPower!?!?!? :roll:

  • he could were them in the play-off, just like last year he wore Soldiers instade of V

  • @ 4DRUMZ
    Good points. I think it was a last second call. My ZLVI outfit seems to have more in common with the Zoom Power than the actual Zoom LeBron VI.
    @ Wiktor
    So far he's been wearing the Soldier in the Playoffs and he has yet another version ready for this year - Soldier III :neutral:

  • Let's give the credit to Nike for giving the effort to revise the shoes as the current ZLVI we've seen so far. We all wanted to have a shoes which support both cushion and style especially to Lebron.But for me I don't think these shoes will make a cut.

  • I like the VI's over these zoom powers. don't get me wrong i do like the powers just not as much as the vi's. the vi's have a more stylish casual appeal and look sweet on the court as well. i don't think the powers would be anywhere near as comfortabel as the vi's

  • Personally, I have the VI's but I was dying to get the Power's. To be honest I started collecting Lebron's after information about the Powers came out. I hope that someday this shoe comes out. I think it will define his collection...

  • Oh man... compared to the crap Soldier III we've seen this would've been an awesome option for the Soldier line! :evil:

  • If these shoes did not have a lbj logo u guy would hate this shoe. U could pick these up in a dollar store if they had no lbj logo and even with the logo these things look like $h!t!
