Kicks On Court: LeBron Showcases ‘Big Apple’ - November 26th, 2008
Posted by George Kiel III | Nov 26, 2008 LeBron James played in the ‘Big Apple’ last night…literally. For the first time this season, James and the Cavs traveled to New York to take on the Knicks. While most of the attention centered around LeBron James 2010 free agent plans, his special edition Nike Zoom LeBron 6 ‘Big Apple’ sneakers raised just as many eyebrows (Even Spike Lee had a pair on!). Although we have seen many colorways of the Nike Zoom LeBron 6 including the LeBron Family Pack, this particular colorway will arguably go down as one of King James best sneakers to date.
LBJ fans can purchase these in New York City on Friday, November 28. The shoe will be available for $140 at select retailers such as Alife Rivington Club, Niketown, and House of Hoops NY. Click the jump to see more kicks worn by Kobe Bryant, Vince Carter, Steve Nash, and others. |

I like these…..im glad they didnt make the toe box white like all the others. It would just make them look impersonal. “cookie cutter” colorways suck!

i like these lebrons although nothing has still topped the lebron II’s. all of lebrons shoes are the best for ballin’ in, hands down! will lebron leave cleveland…i hope so cause first im a knicks fan and second a lebron fan. i think its a perfect match. besides danny ferry doesnt deserve lebron james, what has he done for lebron. without lebron, cleveland is one of the worst teams in the league. go head lebron, make your money!!

Is coach on the floor w/gucci loafs on?lol
Nov 26, 2008 at 2:28 pm
I like the yankee’s better toooooooo red. if they were like the all star 3s perfecto or just something to offset all that red. Looks spray painted. ill hoop in them but none for stock. Just my opinion.
Nov 26, 2008 at 12:58 pm
Smh @ Andrew Bynum. Wtf?
Nov 26, 2008 at 12:57 pm
to comment# 4 you think he can win with mo williams and ben wallace lol be realistic he will never win a ring without luring to real help to Cleveland true they can offer him big money but Cleveland is not a deep pocket team like NY or Detroit and to be honest with you there are only 5 good teams in the east Bos,Cleve, Det,and maybe Orl and Miami but cut the deck after that West is way more competitive and Cleveland in the West wouldve been a 6 or 7 seed playing the spurs hornets or lakersd in the first round getting beat in 4 0r 5 games he needs to go
Nov 26, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Dang Them red Labron are fire I’m copping as soon as I see them no dought. Oh that would make me a hypebeast Get the fuk outta here

Nov 26, 2008 at 11:49 am
THOZ LEBRONS ON THE TOP ARE SOME OF THE UGLYIEST SHOES IVE EVER SEEN!!!!!!
Nov 26, 2008 at 11:01 am
I have a hard time believing LBJ is going to leave Cleveland for NY.
You think LeBron will leave Cleveland, who are currently on top of the East, to go to NY?
Doesn’t LBJ want a ring? He is better off staying in Cleveland, a place where he grew up.
He is not going anywhere!
Nov 26, 2008 at 10:46 am
