LeBron James was obviously the talk of the NBA last night, as he returned to Cleveland for the first time in this young NBA season. Many sneaker enthusiasts expected him to wear this Black/Anthracite Nike LeBron 8 in last night’s game; yet, as seen in our Kicks On Court earlier today, James rocked a slightly different version. Nevertheless, we will get a chance at wearing this sneaker, as it is expected to release on December 11th, 2010, for $160. This particular colorway of the LeBron 8 is a direct opposite of the previously-released “South Beach” Nike LeBron 8 in terms of style. A predominately black base, with minimal Anthracite colored accents (laces, swoosh border), give this shoe a very subtle look. It’s nearly all-black-everything construction should be a hit amongst sneaker consumers much like the all-black makeups of his last two signatures. View detailed photos below.
