Out of all the high schools that get equipped with special versions of LeBron James’ various silhouettes, SVSM in Akron, Ohio is, for obvious reasons, the closest one to King James’ heart. And while he may have left Akron he didn’t forget about them, as the school continues to be blessed with player exclusives from time to time. Shown here are three separate versions of the Nike Zoom Soldier VI for his alma mater, each sporting a slightly different take on their school colors. Get a full look at the Nike Zoom Soldier VI “St. Vincent – St. Mary” trio after the jump and then add them to your collection courtesy of ronimo1989 on eBay.

While LeBron James is long gone from the great state of Ohio at this point, he’s managed to keep plenty of connections flowing to the spots that raised him back home. One of those would be St. Vincent – St. Mary High School, the private school where he honed his skills pre-NBA. Pictured here is yet another player exclusive for the Fighting Irish in the form of the Nike Zoom Soldier 6. Check out the SVSM Nike Zoom Solider 6 PE after the jump, complete with leprechaun logos, and stay tuned for more Nike LeBron PEs. Thanks to Jake for the photos.

The Nike LeBron 9 has offered up some impressive player exclusives in its run befitting King James’ soaring PER, but some of the very best will never make it to retail. It looks like neither of the St. Vincent-St. Mary High School PEs are going to release, and that’s a shame given how dope this ‘Away’ edition heavy on the Fighting Irish vibe turned out. All at once earthy and ostentatious, these would make for a surprisingly versatile lifestyle choice as demonstrated by their effortless blend with your favorite pair of selvage denim. Have a closer look after the jump and let us know which LeBron 9 PEs you’d be most likely to rock on a sunny spring afternoon. via Oneness

Especially for the extra sick pine green nubuck ‘away’ pair, the Nike LeBron 8 PEs for King James’ alma mater were among the very best unreleased colorway from the last product cycle. But a St. Vincent St. Mary colorway is as much of a given on a Nike LeBron model as bred or any other go-to palette, so while it’s totally unexpected, it’s not utterly shocking to see the LeBron 8 V/2 in green and gold. These conform to roughly the same colorblocking pattern as the ‘away’ V1s, but a patent leather eyestay combined with the V2′s synthetic shell makes for quite a difference between the two versions. Which one would you pick if these had made it out to retail, and are you excited about the possibility of a SVSM LeBron 9? Let us know with a comment after you check out a series of additional images below the jump. via YungDrSeuss
