Nike LeBron 9 Prototype Featuring… 360 Air Max

After the Nike LeBron 8 has concluded its campaign with releases of Finals and Miami Nights colorways all the attention has shifted towards the Nine. With leaks of 469764-004 (Miami) and 469764-800 (Birthday) we’re already anticipating the upcoming weeks, but this time we take a look back at the very first Nike LeBron 9 prototype. Seems like Nike really wanted to make a 360 Air Max based shoe for the third straight time. Did they make the right decision? See more pics after the break and let us know.

  • WHOA... Exposed Flywire... CrAzY thought with that one! This looks like the Lebron 7 in Lebron 8 PS mode!

    Nice eyes there! You're right there is Zoom Air in that Air Max bag. Hmm Air Zoom Max, Air Max Zoom????

  • [quote comment="106776"]Maybe this is a Lebron 10 Prototype and not a 9 Prototype. You never know[/quote]

    I'm thinking the same thing bro! Doesn't look like a 9 to me...

  • Those low stretch cables on the sides does fit the PS Elite description though but with that cushioning system it might be the 10

    Sounds true! Where do you see the zoom/air bag combo? I can't find it/see it.

    Honestly, in my opinion, I definitely believe that this is a LeBron 10!

  • The lock down on this shoe looks freaking amazing. I can just imagine how it would perform.
