Glow In The Dark has been a trending topic with sneakers lately thanks to the upcoming 2012 NBA All-Star Collection of glow-friendly outsoles and uppers. The LeBron 9 ‘Big Bang’ is surely to be a celebrated hit due to the full-length glow treatment on the outsole rubber, but it appears that there was a glowing LeBron shoe that preceded it. Remember that LeBron 8 V/2 ‘MVP’ sample we showed you not long ago? Turns out the shoe was trimmed with the Glow In The Dark panels and stripes, giving the shoes some true character in the dark. The lace placket, Flywire panel borders, and the heel ‘MVP’ badge illuminated when the light-switch is turned down, giving the shoes two completely different personas in light and dark. There are actually three different version of the MVP samples, only one of which actually glows (seen here). Check out the extra clips below as well as a full video review of the MVP sample below and let us know what you think. via yungdrseuss
