Still a little ambiguity regarding the release of LeBron James’s next shoe, but it’s starting to clear up and it looks like we can expect a Nike LeBron 9 release date on October 25th. That first release will include the black/red pair we’ve seen thus far, although it’s unclear which other colorways, if any, will also hit stores then.
As a quick recap, the LeBron 9 will incorporate several of Nike’s upper-echelon technologies, including a Hyperfuse construction for part of the upper, Flywire, Zoom Air in the forefoot, Max Air in the heel, and a rarely-seen carbon fiber textile. Stick with NB for plenty more previews and updates as we near October (and beyond). Check out plenty more pictures and info here.
