We’re down to the final days of the year, and 2011 is ready to close out with a bang. After months of hype, one of the most anticipated LeBrons of the year is nearly in stores, with the Nike LeBron 9 ‘Freegums’ release date officially set for December 31st (it’s already hit at some retailers), with the shoe hitting brick-and-mortar sellers that day and nikestore.com earlier, at 12a EST. Featuring a largely black and white palette with some contrasting red (a look that had some dubbing it the ‘Scarface’), the shoe sports a unique print, created by Miami-based artist Freegums, covering the inner-lining as well as the tissue paper that comes in the box. Hit the jump for a few looks and expect these in stores on Saturday. Photos via extrabutterny.com
