On Tuesday, November 25, NBA All-Star LeBron James makes his first trip of the 2008-09 NBA season to Madison Square Garden as the Cleveland Cavaliers take on the New York Knicks. Not only will the perennial NBA All-Star be returning to the stage where he scored 50 points last season but he will be doing so in a special “New York City” version of his latest signature sneakers – the Zoom LeBron VI. The “Big Apple” Zoom LeBron VI sneakers take inspiration from one of LeBron’s favorite cities, New York, by incorporating the color red throughout the shoe as a tribute to the city’s famous nickname. This will be the third time that LeBron will wear a special “New York” version of his signature shoe. Two seasons ago he wore a “graffiti” edition of the Zoom LeBron IV and last season he wore a version of the Zoom LeBron V’s that included pinstripes (Yankees). Fans looking to purchase the Zoom LeBron VI – “Big Apple” edition can do so in New York City on Friday, November 28. The shoe will be available at retail locations throughout the city such as Niketown, House of Hoops plus 3 other Footlocker stores and will retail for a suggested price of $140.

damn, these are fly. a part of me was hoping these were the birthday editions when i first saw them in the video. sucks that im all the way in oregon.
MAN IT SUCKS THAT I ONLY COULD GET DA II'S CUZ THE OLYMPICS VI'S WERE ALOT THAN I HAD BUT IMA TRY TO GET THEM ON EBAY OR SUMIN BUT THESE ARE FRESH
these r pretty nice, limited shoes r very interesting, which niketowns r gonna have these????? can somebody find out for me??
The VI is clearly a casual sneaker. At least that's what I think so far. The main thing I like about the new LeBrons is the uniqueness of the colorways. With The LeBrons, UWR, and now these you simply can't get bored. Even the GRs are nice. However, I am in between on the Big Apple ZLVI. It's okay, but I am not sure if I would be able to rock these.
