NBA Feet: LeBron James – Nike LeBron 9 Elite Black/Red PE

Although Spike Lee dominated the off-the-court sector of sneaker sightings, the on-court prize goes to LeBron James, who led his Miami Heat squad to a third straight victory and indomitable 3-0 lead against the New York Knicks (no NBA team has ever come back down 3-0). While we won’t see the Gold versions of the Elites until the NBA Finals (that is, if LeBron reaches that point), Nike has outfitted him with some Player Exclusives, like this ‘Away’-driven Black/Red/White colorway; it features a tonal black upper with a red/black carbon fiber shield and a white midsole, with red laces to boot. Are these better than LeBron’s ‘Home’ PE that he wore for Game 1 and 2, or are you just waiting for him to rock the Varsity Maize joints? Photos: yahoo
