Perhaps more than ever before, sneakerheads are fully aware of how critical a shoe’s color can be to its success. We’ve witnessed a wide array of color-swap customs that apply legendary looks to different models, a phenomenon that can be attributed to the various online customization services that’ve given us a chance to create 1 of 1s easily and affordably over the last decade-plus. The leader in this field has been NIKEiD for pretty much the entire time since its launch, and now it’s time for another unprecedented move, as we’re soon going to have our chance at coloring the first Nike LeBron signature ever available through the custom creator. The Nike LeBron 9 iD will be available for viewing starting on Tuesday, October 11th and then two weeks later on the 25th, you’ll have a chance to actually buy your specially designed Nines. Got any particular looks in mind you think would look great on this supreme performance machine? Let us know which colorway(s) would look best and stick with Sneaker News to see some samples in advance of the release date. via LRJ23
It's about time. Nike should do ID's for all of their top signature sneakers. Lebron 9 ID, Nike is gonna charge a lot.
if they did that than no one would buy the GR ones dumbfuck
They prolly gonna do a couple colors that stand out and maybe offer patent or some shit that GRs dont have but i bet theyll be team colors. i doubt nike would offer any colors needed for something special like a "south beach" or "China" colorway
This proves that this shoe is trash. You see they didn't do this with the 7's and 8's. They didn't need to. People took what they could get. With these, they need the ID option.
this is soooo true. They know the 9s wont sell like the 7s and 8s did so they made it iD to make up for the fact that these wont sell.
I don't think this can be a indicator of the 9's being trash. They can charge more for ID's so they can actually make more if they give us the option to make our own. No need to have shoes sittling on shelves because people want to be picky about the colorways.
i bet they have glow in the dark like the hyperdunks
Price tag will probably be at least 200.00
i wonder how much the price will bee.
This is another win for Nike
The colors are gonna suck y would nike give us good ones especially with the china Miami university colorways coming....Basic colors im guessing
Nike ID never has south beach colors for a Nike B-ball shoe not even close
And they didn't do this with the last two why?... 9's are wack
Nice, these will look good in white/unc blue or grey/white/lime green colorway. The price is going to be around the same as the AJ 2011's probably. $$$
MSRP: at least 215
Space Jams!!!
Space Jams!
I'm more concerned about how much the price jack up is gonna be than someone making a South Beach pair. If they don't OD on the price and they have the right colors, I'm going Dunkman....Grey/Volt Dunkman.
Guarantee that someone does a South Beach colorway.
i wonder how many colors they will give us to use on these....
Somebody gon make a southbeach
omg there is going to be so many south beaches. smh. smh. smh
I can only imagine how many South Beach CWs will be made...Hopefully they don't make that an option.
There's gonna be SO many "South Beach" ID's
You really think Nike would even offer those colors?
They shouldve done this for the 7s or 8s -___-
