News & Updates
In anticipation of the Zoom LeBron VI release we give you another look at the ‘United We Rise‘ version. After the practice shots from Beijing and the catalog image from Nike it’s time for another installment courtesy of chengyang. As we reported earlier the Olympic ZL6 is said to be released in limited fashion and according to our sources it will happen in about a month, but things are still in motion so keep checking back as it’s not set in stone yet. The VI is all about the looks as according to LeBron James and Ken Link - lead designer of LeBron’s line - the casual friendly approach is back this year. After the first two colorways looks like they did focus on the appeal and the LeBrons are never poor in terms of performance so it might be the winning combination.

There are some PEs and there are some PEs! Most of the shoes, especially the limited ones, are defined by their rareness. If there was a contest to determine which of the Nike LeBron IIIs is the most unique these would have make it the top three no doubt. The Superman PEs have been seen before, but this one is special. Some believe the whole Superman concept was born in case King James would get the NBA Most Valuable Player title. So far he didn’t. Anyway… there are two base models of the Superman III’s - Blue and Red, which defines the main color on this multicolored shoe. The one featured below is just another variation of the Blue Superman featuring an ‘MVP’ logo one the horizontal dynamic strap and a Superman-esque L23 logo on the tongue. There are rumors that yet another version exists, which has Yellow as its main theme. So far there are no photos to confirm that. Photos courtesy of KDogLBJ23.
By the way, thanks to these new IIIs we hit 50 in our LeBron 3 listing so feel free to check it out here.

One of the most exciting things about LeBrons is the number of different color ways and styles that make the whole going-after-the-ones-you-like game so much fun. Of course some are overwhelmed by it, and sometimes the exclusiveness of various shoes makes other people give up. However, in the end there’s plenty to go around and hopefully the real fans will always find a way. It’s not like anyone can have them all, right?
One of the examples of the surprises you may encounter is the profiled today Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier II China Exclusive. It doesn’t get much love cause it’s outside of the main signature line, but it’s a perfect release for the hardcore enthusiasts and of course Chinese fans, for whom it’s doubly special. The featured model is not the one that got released! Look very closely as you will see that there’s something different about them. In case you need something to compare check out the Showcase we published last month. Still can’t see it?… okay here’s the answer… there are two versions of the China Soldiers. The regular one has a standard nothing-to-be-excited-about leather, but the one below has that shiny Patent Leather look (yes, the title gave it out). Big props to our friend dOubleO, who was kind enough to share his discovery. When you hit ebay looking for a pair be sure to look very closely as you might find a similar deal with a sample hiding as a GR.
UPDATE: new photos with better lightning show the Patent Leather more clearly.

As exciting as they were the 2008 Olympics are over. LeBron James - one of USA Basketball captains - led the Redeem Team back to the Gold. Just like when he’s playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers King James was the core of the U.S.A. Team. During the Beijing Olympic Games he started in all eight games and averaged 24.8 minutes (#1 on the team), 15.5 points (#2), 5.3 rebounds (#3), 4.75 assists (#2), 2.375 steals (#1), 1.0 blocks (#1) and shot 60% from the field and 46% from beyond the arc. Once again he proved to be the most complete player in the world, this time on an International stage. In order to celebrate with the King we prepared a special wallpapers set commemorating this year’s Summer Games and the newest LeBron James sneakers - Nike Zoom LeBron VI. Refresh your desktop and show appreciation by changing your wallpaper. Each image is prepared to work with both - standard and panoramic - resolutions. Photos via NIKE.
