Not Witness, but Believe. The Other NYC Zoom LeBron 4. »

NYC Graffiti Nike Zoom LeBron IV – it’s the shoe that started it all. The whole NYC X LeBron James hype, that lasts till the present day, was born after the Pop Up Event held down in New York over two years ago. Nike recognized the love Big Apple folks have for sneakers and LBJ, and they released a very limited number (250 pairs) of the NYC’s. They were given the Holy Grail status even before the actual premiere. From that moment the New York X LeBron James bond has only kept getting stronger. The Graffities were tagged as PROMO SAMPLE, which basically makes them a Player Exclusive. That was long before fans were able to buy PEs via House of Hoops, which btw have regular tags (in most cases). The shoe you see below is a Sample version, which has a different text written down the heel. The regular model has Witness opposed to Believe on the Sample. Photos of both versions after the break.
