Nike LeBron 9 “Cannon” aka “Pre-Heat” Finally with Decent Photos

According to the schedule posted on nikestore.com the Cannons are slated to drop in November. However, that’s for the online drop. They will be also available in China starting tomorrow with U.S. to follow within the next two weeks. It’s about time to take a decent look at this new Nike LeBron 9 colorway. The new photos show the whole GR package with LeBron James’ new signature white drawer box and an additional pair of speckled laces. Are you planning to get the “Pre-Heats” once they drop?
UPDATE: You can find these right now on ebay from a legit seller: limitedshoes.

  • After seeing these pics, the Cannons move up in my LeBron 9 ranking!

    1. Chinas
    2. Away
    3. Cannon
    4. Home
    5. Blackout
    6. "Miami Nights" (dunno what else to call 'em, but the V/2 Lows will always be the true Miami Nights IMO, despite what Nike may say)

  • Not getting this colorway.. But I like how in the 9th pic down it shows how his signature is on at least one of the lace tips.. Wonder if it's on both or the other might say lebron or nine..

  • So far I only hate the Homes.

    I like the Cannons, Chinas and Aways the most. Of course Blackouts are always hot.

  • Not diggin these. I'm sure they call them the Pre-Heats, trying to build some hype on them. Sorry Nike but these are no Lebron 8 Pre-Heats aka. South Beaches.

  • Why does china get all these shoe releases before US?....and even if they get the shoes before us. Nike needs to be smart and make more shoes since the demand for them are through the roof. Allow real fans of the lebron sneakers to get their hands on them. Not just the sneaker guy that buys 100 of them so sell them on eBay or YouTube for 200% profit....

  • Who actually started calling them pre-heats? I think last years SB colorway will show up in the elite version. Wolf grey/new green/mint candy cw in the elite release information sounds pretty close to me. Somebody on niketalk was also talking about this being this year's SB.
