If you consider the Nike LeBron III x Air Max 360 hybrid we showed you earlier today, LeBron James’ propensity toward playoff-specific sneakers kicked off years ago. But truthfully, those were never intended to see the light of an NBA arena, and it was only last year that we started to see a slimmed-down version of the regular seson LBJ Nikes as a postseason alternative. Following in the footsteps of the LeBron VII PS, the Nike Air Max LeBron VIII V2 allows King James to keep it moving with power and grace even after an 82-game regular season. These joints are covered in a translucent, Flywire-embedded material that sheds pounds of pressure off the knees and ankles, and the moire-like array of underlying perforations makes for one of the most unique basketball shoes in recent memory. We’ve got a bunch of up-close images awaiting your click on the jump below, so check em out and let us know which LeBron 8 model is your fave. via Taobao
