Zoom LeBron VI: Big Apple Edition
Big Apple ‘BronAsk around the NBA and most players will tell you that they go the extra mile when playing in New York City. There is something about Madison Square Garden that gets players amped up. Reggie Miller and Michael Jordan back in the day put on phenomenal performances in MSG, and now guys like Kobe Bryant and Dwayne Wade always look drop massive buckets during their NYC visit.
LeBron James is no different. When King James comes to the “Big Apple,” he rarely disappoints. No one since Michael Jordan has drawn this much attention in terms of playing at Madison Square Garden. It seems LeBron has a special connection with New York, why? We don’t know. What we do know is that New Yorkers always get a treat from the Chosen One.
Big Apple ‘BronLast year’s buzz around LeBron’s NY arrival was nuts. The release of his Nike Zoom LeBron V: New York Yankee Edition and a 50 point, 10 assist, 8 rebound bludgeoning of the Knicks had the city going bonkers. This year Lebron promises not to disappoint with the release of his “Big Apple” Zoom LeBron VI.
The all red shoe is absolutely crazy. I was a fan of the Zoom LeBron VI already but these have to get copped ASAP. I am going to exhaust every Nike hookup I have to get my paws on a size 13. They are dropping on November 28th at Niketown and Foot Locker House of Hoops here in NYC. Also word on the block is that LeBron has something special planned for the city of New York. We’re not sure what, but we’ll keep you posted if we hear or see anything.
The “Big Apple” Zoom LeBron VI will drop November 28th at Niketown, Foot Locker House of Hoops, and other select retail locations. Suggested retail is $140.00. For more info hit up www.nikebasketball.com.

Those kind of look like Rain Gloshes (however you spell that word)
Not a big fan – Kind of getting LeBron/New Yorked to death,
I hope he goes there in 2010, but the story is wearing thin

@Bx
I was thinking the same thing…LeBron always says the media is responsible for the LeBron to NYC stuff be he sure likes to add fuel to the fire…
I wonder when LeBron’s going to launch a Cleveland edition?

These are the only Lebron act’s I’ve EVER liked. They’re reminiscent of some 1’s and dunks with a little something extra. Nike doen’t usually make lebron’s kicks wearable off the court, or on it for that matter.
