Nike is set to release a “pinnacle high-end performance shoe with the style and premium quality expected in LeBron’s signature footwear” in 2012. Slated for the Playoffs and probably the upcoming Olympic Games is the Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite. Technical aspects of the shoe and the luxurious pricing was already unveiled, however, this is the first time we’re seeing the actual shoe. It’s a wear test sample, but it should give us a hint of the final product. As you can see the 9 P.S. is equipped with a 180 Air Max / Zoom Air combo cushioning. All logos have been stripped, as usual.

Well....I guess they should bring back the 8s
:| Maybe it is because the 8s and the 7s, but the whole 9 series has been somewhat dissapointing.
These actually have a brand new cushioning. Their is literally Zoom Air inside the Max Air bag. Those cables are low stretch flywire cables. These shoes are packed with nothing but performance!!!! Can't wait to see actual colorways!
Again Jr Lyon wrong
JR Lyon's not wrong, he just likes the shoes... stop your complaining about the 9's and go wear your 8's. I love my 8's too, but damn, get off the haterade
I know this is just a test sample, but nothing about these pics answers the very important question: Why the heck will these shoes cost $250?!?!
I believe you get what you pay for, so I'll drop $250 for a shoe loaded with great tech and materials. But the finished product will have to be WAY, WAY better than this.
Stfu mouse nice name

Seriously what is your problem?! GROW UP!
You think I'm wrong check this out: http://counterkicks.com/2011/09/14/nike-lebron-9-ps-elite/
Only thing I see that is different from info and actual shoe is the cushioning. On the shoe it says Zoom Max but info just says air max heel and zoom air forefoot
When we first saw this shoe it had 360 Zoom Max
