Detailed Look at Nike LeBron 9 X Freegums

What was previously believed to be inspired by a popular movie about a crime lord from South Beach is actually a collaboration between Nike and Miami-based artist known as “Freegums“. This special Black & White colorway of the Nike LeBron 9 is highlighted with subtle red details and a graphic lining, which is where the artist part comes into play. There seems to be an additional pattern located on the toebox, but it was much more apparent on the previous set of photos. The Freegums LBJ9 is expected to release around Christmas, but don’t worry the actual Christmas shoe is different.

  • I'll pick there up instead of the Home 9's Christmas is looking good Christmas 9's there Concords Cannon 9's and possibly another 9 I don't think the China's are coming to us we would of heard something by now I think because this time now we heard information about the China 8's and heard they were pushed back there ain't even word from Nike they might be releasing here

  • So far the only concrete piece of information regarding Chinas reaching U.S. comes from NikeTown Las Vegas who said they will have some pair on 11/11/11. So seems like there will be some pairs available, but the question is... how limited?

    I don't know why would they switch it with the Cannons and not made a wider release say HoH or online oh and looks like KD copied the China colorway from Lebron lol http://solecollector.com/news/nike-zoom-kd-iv-year-of-the-dragon-/ just they don't look as good to me

  • Well i just got my pair today and sadly i haft to agree with most people. Theses shoes do hurt. Around the ankle is pretty painful. So to try and avoid it i suggest getting a size bigger i got half a size bigger and still didn't feel great. And wear 2 or 3 pair of socks. And to add theses shoes are a bitch to get on. You haft to unlace the top 4 laces to actually get your foot in the shoe so if you plan on balling with em make sure your playing for a few hrs. So pick a good color and don't expect a whole lot from the shoe. As for mine they are going on my display shelf. :mrgreen:

  • Just rockin the heat away nothing special prob gonna get the 9X love the inner lining
