Classics Revisited: Nike Zoom LeBron III Low “Sprite” (2006)

Lebron Sprite First Release1

NIKE LEBRON WEEK

You know that uber-popular LeBron 8 Low colorway that everyone copied onto the LeBron 9 iD? It started in 2006 with this sick collaboration with the Coca Cola company. The well-versed LeBron fans will definitely recognize this show, but for the newer fellas, the LeBron ‘Sprite’ was an actual shoe that happened with the Zoom LeBron III Low. In 2006, Nike created this special-edition ‘Sprite’ as a special tribute to LeBron, who nabbed a Sprite soft-drink endorsement in his rookie year; one of the ads featured the fictional ‘Thirst’ figurine that would appear in several NBA advertisements. This version, unlike the LeBron 8 Low, features legitimate Sprite logos on the insole, heel, and outsole, and remains as one of the most elusive LeBron discoveries out there today. The Zoom LeBron III may be a long-gone story (until a Retro goes down), but that’s what Classics Revisited is for! More on the original LeBron “Sprite” after the jump
