Nike Basketball broke the red and green mold with last year’s Christmas Day Collection that featured the LeBron 8 V.2, Zoom KD III and Zoom Kobe VI in a ‘Signal Your Color’ theme. Each shoe had its own inspiration, yet they came together to form something like a stoplight, but this time around the big three sigs each go their own way at the fork in the road. The Nike LeBron 9 stays with the seasonal theme with its red upper adding white accents and green laces, and even the Zoom KD IV can be seen as somewhat traditional with its ornamental Metallic Bronze upper adding red laces. And while there are also red laces and (neon) green accents on the Zoom Kobe VII Supreme, that shoe’s ‘Cheetah’ colorway takes it even further than last year’s ‘Grinch’, and is easily the most inventive and indirectly Christmas-y of the bunch. Which of these three do you like best? Let us know when you click through for more images, and stick with Sneaker News for updates on these December 25th releases (that’s right, more presents on Christmas!). via 23penny1

its like a lime/electric green
December 16th, 2011 at 12:51 pm
I think it is lime green, just looks yellow because of photo quality… I think Sneakernews used one of those spy cameras hidden in a button when they broke into Nike to get us these exclusive photos
December 16th, 2011 at 12:54 pm
Yeah VOLT GREEN its looks like yellow.
December 16th, 2011 at 12:57 pm

December 16th, 2011 at 12:59 pm
KB's look so cheap out of those.
December 16th, 2011 at 1:16 pm
I think that is lime green, it just looks yellow due to picture quality… I think Sneakernews used one of those spy cameras hidden in a shirt button when they took these exclusive photos for us
December 16th, 2011 at 1:37 pm
Red laces in the KD's are a no go
December 16th, 2011 at 1:42 pm
