Last week was the best stretch of news for LeBron James fans since early June when his Miami Heat got off to a 2-1 lead in the 2011 NBA Finals. Monday started the week with perhaps the best Soldier 5 colorway yet, the new ‘Miami Night’ LeBron 8 V/2 Low was unveiled, we saw a Hyperfuse sample of the Air Max LeBron VII and how these last couple years of experimentation with King James line has now culminated in the Nike LeBron 9. The LeBron IX combines all the best technologies from the last few years of his Nike Basketball series (perhaps a bit of Foamposite away from this statement stretching across the entire line). You get the carbon fiber from the LeBron VIII, the Flywire it shares with the V/2 and the lightweight advantage of Hyperfuse as seen on the PostSeason Eights. A mix of Zoom Air forefoot and Max Air heel cushioning rounds out the most impressive list of specs ever assembled on a sneaker for any sport, certainly a design worthy of a world champion. We don’t know whether James will win his first championship while wearing them but the Nike LeBron 9 certainly seems capable of providing the literal base to his next quest for the chip.
