LeBron James, one of the highest-earning pro-athletes in 2011, bought in a minority stake of Liverpool FC after striking a deal with Boston-based Fenway Sports Group, and is projected to earn quite a profit from this investment over the course of the next several years.
What do sneakerheads get out of it? A special edition colorway of the LeBron shoe donning the Liverpool FC kit colors of red and turquoise blue and the liver bird logo on the heel badge.

Check out the detailed images of the Nike LeBron 9 Low ‘Liverpool’ below and if you want a head start on this upcoming releases, check out the sample size from skit_japan on eBay.
