Nike Air Max LeBron VII “Red Carpet” Detailed Look
Posted by Bert Geyer | Nov 1, 2009 Feast your eyes upon these photos of the Nike Air Max Lebron VII Red Carpet. The Red Carpet name is apt for this make-up as it is, so far, the most flamboyant colorway of the LeBron VII. On the same note, this version is a better fit for the streets than the court because the typical flywire has been replaced with a heavier but neck-breaking nylon weave. The teal accenting on the shoe can’t go unnoticed. Props to Nike for going as far as lending a teal tint to the full-length air unit. There is also subtle red-orange accenting on the shoe that is highlighted if the black laces are substituted for the alternate red-orange laces.
Aside from the Red Carpet’s unique characteristics, these detailed images also offer a close look at the intricate design facets of all LeBron VIIs. On the heel just above the air unit are and “L” and “J” imprinted in script on the left and right shoe respectively. These imprints mimic the tattoos on LeBron’s left and right triceps. On the laces, in place of dubres, are attached plastic slivers reading “LeBron” and “James.” These keep the laces fresh while providing a lighter alternative to heavier metal dubres. Within the collar are cushy Achilles cradles. As many of you know, these are a welcomed aid to ankle comfort and support. So, while you ravenously await and salivate, stash away a stack so you can cop these when they drop in November. Hit the hop for plenty more pictures. |

The Lebrons are starting to go down hill as far as design and concept.
Nov 1, 2009 at 3:04 pm

Nov 1, 2009 at 2:15 pm
i like this shoe, but thers way too many colourways… an i dont get why they called “red carpet” is someone colourblind?
Nov 1, 2009 at 2:09 pm
This is my actual pair that is photo’d here. Let me tell you that I think these are more comfortable and more flexible than the pairs with flywire. And there is no obvious difference in weight between the pairs with flywire and without.

Nov 1, 2009 at 1:47 pm
