Throwback Thursday: Nike Zoom LeBron V Fairfax Away PE

The Nike Zoom LeBron V is one of those shoes that doesn’t get enough credit in my humble opinion. Maybe the old truth that basketball shoes need to possess a lot of casual appeal to become successful applies here. I mean… sure it’s hard to rock them off the court, but Nike delivered on their part coming through with many nice colorway options. Also, it was weird to see the White and Navy colorway to take the spotlight, but I think it was the right call at the time being. Basketball-wise the V was and still is awesome. If I had to point the most versatile shoe for playing ball I wouldn’t even blink twice… the ZLV is the truth. No matter what’s your position or what is your style of play… LeBron’s 5th sig shoe never disappoints. For today’s post we look back at the Fairfax Player Exclusive, which never dropped to public, but it’s sooooo nice.
