It goes without saying that LeBron is a hot subject in sports fodder, but with this week?s look at the Nike LeBron 9, King James? shoes might have eclipsed the player himself as fuel for conversation. Featuring Flywire, Hyperfuse, a carbon fiber-like woven material, Max Air and Zoom Air technologies, the LeBron 9 is clearly intended to be one of the most advanced hoops shoes ever. Today?s look gives us our best peek at the aesthetic details though, including the quote that stretches from the toe on the right shoe to the left. LeBron?s favorite movie is “Gladiator” and it shows in the ?What we do in life, echoes in eternity?? on the very tip of the kicks, which is also tattooed on the inside of his biceps. Could there be a more fitting quote for the LeBron legacy, given the outcome of this past NBA season?
