Each year’s LeBron lowtop is delievered during the postseason and into the NBA’s off months as a summer shoe, much in the style of the Air Jordan that began this practice in the mid/late ’90s. Within that context, the exuberant and utterly un-Heat-like colorways we’ve seen from the Nike LeBron 9 Low to this point are pretty much what we would have expected from a design whose immediate predecessor’s biggest hit was nicknamed ‘Flamingo’. This new colorway, then, is something of a departure, even though it’s the color combination most familiar to the Nike LeBron lineup and the first general release from this year’s flagship. Click through to see how that black, white and Sport Red trio looks with a dash of Cool Grey and a full-length Max Air cushion and stick with Sneaker News for all the LeBron 9 Low release dates. via Dunk
