LeBron 9 China

"What we do in life..... Echoes in eternity" 

Feedback: 

This is the only LeBron 9 colorway that tickled my fancy.  Its all in the details !! From the start I had no doubts about the comfort and performance of the shoe.  It felt great and looked great - on court.  That was the major issue for me that lead me to pass on the other colorways.  It lacked the lion logo which was the biggest turn off for me.  By the looks of the China LeBron, that lion logo would of done wonders for the other colorways in my opinion.  Not sure if this will be my last LeBron 9 for the season but It certainly feels like it. But why think about future releases when this is in hand 

As for the details: 

"What we do in life..... Echoes in eternity" that is engraved  on the front sole.  Very difficult to see but "what we do in life" can be found on the right side and "echoes in eternity" is found on the left.  The added Chinese Lion logo along w/ the signature is a nice touch.  Flywire toe box with fuse technology and woven side panels for added support while keeping the weight down.  Like all Nike Basketball products this also have a side valence or a wider panel on the sole to prevent ankle rolls & increase balance.  Additional ankle padding can be seen and felt.  Pull tabs is reinforced by a plastic frame along with another nice hit: the Chinese character for "fire".  Additional ankle padding for added comfort and  underrated,  but always a favorite of mine: alternate set of laces.
