Despite the fact that Nike’s dream matchup for the NBA Finals was unceremoniously interrupted by Orlando’s Magic-al run, no one is likely to forget about LeBron James any time soon. His impending free agency is probably among the biggest reasons King James will continue to remain in the spotlight even after the NBA Finals end, but these new kicks certainly won’t hurt. The Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier III looks fantastic in this new grey edition. The tiny touches of yellow play second fiddle to Nike’s crazy new reptile pattern. An interesting addition since our first viewing of this pair, the straps’ stitching has been coloured in black, blue and red for an extra little pop. These will walk their way atop a speckled midsole and translucent outsole to Nike retailers on July 1st. Stick with Sneaker News and we’ll be sure to remind you. via SLAM
