Owing to a combination of the proximity to King James born date and the NBA’s annual TV showcase, Christmas colorways from Nike Basketball’s LeBron signature series are every bit as much a tradition as ‘home’ and ‘away’ looks. This year’s offers a festive vibe similar to last year’s release, and though it doesn’t feature more than a few select white hits, the Nike LeBron 9 ‘Christmas Day’ does indeed connect with that idea of driven snow ‘purity’ thanks to its huge sweeps of tonal red. Paired with white-ticked green laces, they’re something like an un-Tree, and these latest images show that in a small enough size (or on a large enough tree), they have the look of a sneakerhead’s favorite ornament. Check out a run of new images after the jump and let us know where these rank on your holiday wish list. via Kickz-Lab
