Another Look at Upcoming Nike Zoom Soldier IX “Sprite”

We already got a couple of teasers showing the upcoming Zoom Soldier IX including the Blackout, Summit Lake Hornets and this “Sprite-esque” colorways. Today we get to see LeBron James’ latest installment in the Soldier line from all angles. This unveils more about the innovative strap system, which I’m sure adds more functionality, but subtracts casual appeal. We all know the Soldier line isn’t as popular on the streets as the main line, but I do remember Nike creating an amazing on and off court performer within LBJ’s secondary signature line in the form of the Nike Zoom 20-5-5. The Soldier line has been re-booted after the Soldier 5 and each year folks at Nike were able to improve on the next model, which resulted in more sightings on basketball courts… especially in the NBA. Hopefully, the Soldier 9 will continue this trend. Check out the new “Spite” SOLDIER IX pics below.
