Ever since the Zoom LBJ Ambassador 1.0 was released, it’s become a common thing for Nike LeBron’s budget shoes to release side by side with the main signature. Seems like that pattern will continue as the third installment of the Ambassador is slated for November 2010 as a sidekick for the upcoming Air Max LeBron VIII. One thing worries me though… apart from the 1-2 combo for the next season a new pattern emerges for the LeBron James shoes collection. Air Max. Seems like it’s everywhere. The VII is an Air Max shoe and the VIII is going to follow up too. I’m pretty sure they’re gonna nail it again, but even LBJ’s new team shoes – Soldier IV – will feature a Zoom Air/Max Air combo. It’s even more surprising to see the upcoming Zoom LBJ Ambassador III feature an Air Max unit in the heel especially since it’s a budget sneaker. It’s still a long way to go and things may still change, but what do you think about that move? I know one thing for sure… all this makes me love the LeBron VII P.S. more and more each day. Yes, they are THAT good!

That could dead on be the Soldier II low. Best looking Ambassador to date but that's not saying much. I kinda like these... good job Nike! :lol:
Zoom over Max: The AM VII full size bag is intimidating and looks great. The unit used on the Soldier IV and Ambassador (above) is run-of-the-mill speaking on appearance. I agree that the VII PS has it's own vibe due to the zoom unit eliminating bulk in the shoe and making it much sleeker of a profile. It's hard to say that Zoom defines the series before the VII because many of those releases were still pretty bulky (aside from the I & V).
odd looking low - not bad, looks a little like jordan Q4 tainer and nash low. not bad, still probably wont cop.
how much do these weigh?
