The Nike LeBron 9 continues to be the muse for sneaker customizers everywhere as we get a look at the Nike LeBron 9 Low designed with the 2011 release of “China” in mind. Using the Easter colorway as the base (given by the lining and midsole that has remained unchanged), sneaker customizer Kurtzastan gives the shoes the China treatment with the Orange/Blue upper and the distinct graphics on the tongue as well as the mid-foot Wing. It’s only a matter of time until customizers get their hands on the Nike LeBron X Low, so check out this latest remix from the 9 cycle below and give us your opinions below.

LeBrons are dominating the off-the-court footwear scene right now, and with the upcoming releases of the EXTs and the LeBron X NSW, that trend is poised to get stronger and stronger. Even the shoes that Nike never released are getting a ton of attention, like one of the two LeBronold Palmer joints that might be one of the most coveted sneakers for the Summer 2013 season. These were produced last year and never hit stores, yet some lucky ducks have managed to get their hands on ‘em – only to list them at egregious prices. Well, someone’s bound to cave, so check out these new photos below and let us know if the LeBronolds are the best unreleased LeBrons ever, and if you’re really curious to see the insane price, check out the listing from jllo2055 on eBay.

The Nike LeBron 9 has one of the strongest catalogs of unreleased material in all of the sneaker world. One of the later gems to pop up was the Nike LeBron 9 Low ‘LeBronold Palmer’, a tropical combo with a clever portmanteau nickname that again picked up on Bron’s tropical setting down in Miami. Of course the sneaker has made even more waves as of late with this alternate sample, which features teal dominating the upper rather than those pink and orange tones. Continue reading for some extra angles on the sneaker and bid on this super rare Nike LeBron 9 Low now from tcolejr05 on eBay.

The folks at Nike Basketball have made it clear that the ‘South Beach’ vibe is something that they’re ready to put to rest, although a quick rush of customers to ‘Atomic Teal’ on the Nike LeBron X iD proved that maybe the popular Teal/Pink colorway has some gas left in the tank. These LeBronold Palmer PE/Samples are enough proof that Nike at least flirted with the idea of releasing a South Beach-themed release, as the colorway inspired by the refreshing cocktail known as the Arnold Palmer alludes to Miami’s atmosphere of Laid Back Everything. This first look at a ‘reverse’ colorway of the LeBronold Palmer reveals the familiar teal colored upper, so which do you prefer – these or the ones in the Yellow? Check out the gallery below and see what the asking price is for this reverse LeBronold Palmer sample from kicksandmusic100 on eBay.

The DJ Clark Kent-designed Nike LeBron 9 Low ‘War Vet’ is a pair that not too many folks have as they never made it to retail. It should come as no surprise though that King James himself does indeed have at least one of the camo colored pairs in his rotation. Pictured here is LeBron hitting the karaoke stage for Heat teammate Shane Battier’s Battier Take Charge Foundation charity event. Continue reading for a better look at Bron in the Nike LeBron 9 Low ‘War Vet’ and tell us in the comments if you think this is one of the better unreleased pairs for his monumental ninth signature sneaker.

Yes, it glows. The flashy outsole is the latest development of one of the most coveted sample pairs of the LeBron 9, revealed here in this new set of never-before seen images. We already showed you a nice detailed gallery of the LeBronolds earlier today, but this second look is definitely worth the extra minute or two because the glow-in-the-dark outsole sets these off to a new level! Does the ‘Glow’ feature match the tropical/floral print on the upper, or is it better fitting for futuristic colorways like the ‘Galaxy’? We’ve got a gallery of the Nike LeBron 9 Low ‘LeBronold Palmer’ with glowing soles below so take a look and let us know what you think.
