If you’re still hungry for LeBron 9s (even after the hearty helpings that have already been served up to you), time to make some room in your stomach for some Chinese. That’s right – the it’s been reported by Nikestore Twitter that the Nike LeBron 9 ‘China’ will hit U.S. retailers on December 17th at select Nike Basketball retailers. With the Cannons selling out instantly this past weekend and the Freegum x LeBron 9 already a highly anticipated release, will the China/Blue Flame cause you to revise your plan of action? It sure is tough being a sneakerhead, but these are worth making room for. Stick with Sneaker News for more updates as we approach the U.S. release date, and if you want to guarantee yourself a pair now, cop one of the available sets on from abckicks on eBay.

December 5th, 2011 at 5:55 pm
Nerf's, Last Shot's, and these??? Damn it Nike!!!!!
December 5th, 2011 at 6:07 pm
Cannon > China. Love that blue though
December 5th, 2011 at 6:18 pm
Where did the cannons sell out cuz they still around here!
December 5th, 2011 at 6:19 pm
I don't understand why Nike and jb put all of these release dates so close together. The average person cannot afford to buy all of these shoes in a one month time span
December 5th, 2011 at 6:45 pm
i agree too, got a pair and they are a little small for me as well.
December 5th, 2011 at 6:49 pm
I like these alot, but the Cannon's have that 'umph' that the China's don't necessarily have. Not saying i don't like them, they look really good….just prefer the Cannon's.
December 5th, 2011 at 7:05 pm
support,,,why are you doing this to me NIKE……
December 5th, 2011 at 7:07 pm
i suggest one size up

December 5th, 2011 at 7:26 pm
im loving all the new lebron colorrways but why all this orange????? its a dope color tho works well on these the cannons and the hurricane joints
December 5th, 2011 at 7:30 pm
Missed the cannons, looks like I'll be making that 2 hr trip to Columbus house of hoops 4 these!
December 5th, 2011 at 7:35 pm

December 5th, 2011 at 7:43 pm
That's because you're not a baller. I have paper to spend and I'm conquering this month.
December 5th, 2011 at 7:47 pm
The average person doesn't need to have every pair of shoes
December 5th, 2011 at 7:59 pm
WTF man I just bought the Cannons, trying to get these Weatherman's Nerfs and Concords…Nike is killing me man

December 6th, 2011 at 11:49 am

December 6th, 2011 at 5:04 pm
true, bought the cannons in my size 10.5 and needed a size 11, luckily the had a pair left when i returned them
December 6th, 2011 at 6:48 pm
What a bunch of liars Nike are. Asia exclusive? Err … is the US part of Asia now?
Its good to know im not a Hypebeast though, as i bought these when everyone(90%) was saying how ugly the 9 was and would "never cop".. Now its the other way around, i guess hype/marketing won through as usual, same as was for the 8, and will for the 10. Like was said, first its the haters, then the followers, then hypebeasts and finally resellers. Circle of life. Sad though that ppl cant think for themselves and have to be owned my Nike and trendsetters. Dont forget to get every cw though! Even though many are talking about their wallet being empty… umm, maybe just buy kicks your going to wear? And not EVERY SINGLE RELEASE that you all hype each other up for and dont actually need? I guess thats why (poor people anyway) rob and steal so they can get em all, coz if you dont have every latest release… you aint gonna be cool! lol.
December 6th, 2011 at 6:49 pm
Sounds like they own you.
December 6th, 2011 at 8:13 pm
I definetly would've
December 7th, 2011 at 12:18 am
I JUST MASTURBATED ON THESE!!!!!
December 13th, 2011 at 6:01 pm
agreed !
