The Nike LeBron 9 has been such a major success and it’s actually quite shocking that there are still a few major releases on their way. With this weekend’s Varsity Maize and the early-June ‘Miami Vice’ releases ending the LeBron 9 chapter on a high-note (unless there are more Elites scheduled), some sneakerheads and LeBron loyalists are already looking toward the LeBron X and the possible game-changing materials and architecture that will set the series to new heights. These early catalog sneak peeks reveals a number of elements – Hyperfuse, visible Zoom Air (talk about a long-time coming), and thick Flywire cables like the ones seen in the upcoming Nike Lunar Hyperdunk+ (remind you of that prototype sample from last September?). Will the LeBron X feature Nike+ Basketball technology? How expensive will the shoe be? Can we count on another South Beach/Miami Vice colorway? Expectations are certainly high for Nike’s longest-running signature series since the Jordan, so for now, tickle your appetite with these teasers below and let’s get the conversation going: What could Jason Petrie bring to the table with the LeBron X that we haven’t seen yet?
