Introducing Nike LeBron 9 P.S. Elite Series – Home Version

Let’s take a closer look at the specifications of the upcoming Elite shoes. For the player who has a “strong” game, the LeBron signature shoe includes extra carbon fiber enforcement that flows from the heel all the way to the wing, providing just the right amount of support needed for the moves involved in that style of play. The Nike Kobe VII, Nike Zoom Hyperdunk and LeBron 9 uppers all incorporate the highest performance materials, each re-engineered from inside out to ensure that the products are as light as possible. The lightweight construction accommodates the ultra-high tensile strength Flywire made with Kevlar aramid. This premium material has lower levels of stretch resulting in a stronger and lighter shoe, and a perfect fit. Last but not least, the series comes with a special sock liner built for internal traction. This combines 3D anatomical fit with non-slip print – strategically distributed throughout the liner – to reduce the internal movement. All three Nike Basketball Elite Series shoes – the Nike Kobe VII, Nike Zoom Hyperdunk and LeBron 9 – are available at retail and at www.nikestore.com beginning April 28, 2012.
