Jovani Hernandez Fresh off a wild altercation with Isaiah Stewart during a game against the Detroit Pistons, LeBron James has made sneaker-related headlines as his Nike LeBron 9 “Big Bang” is rumored to retro in 2022.
Widely-regarded as one of the best Nike Basketball releases of all-time, the vibrant “Total Orange” and “Team Orange”-colored pair landed onto the scene during 2012’s NBA All-Star Weekend. A nod to the event’s host city of Orlando, Fla., quarters to the Kennedy Space Center, the sneaker indulged in a “Galaxy” theme that also appeared on other footwear of the time, most notably the Nike Air Foamposite One. In addition to the eye-catching citrus arrangement applied across the Nike LeBron‘s mixed materials upper, a handful of reflective “Metallic Silver” details further tap into the space-related theme. Glow-in-the-dark outsoles and a special “Big Bang” logo on the tongue round out the almost-10-year-old sneaker.
No black Nike SNKRS launch details have Sportswear disclosed by the brand, but that’s likely to change as February’s NBA All-Star Weekend approaches. In the meantime, enjoy images of a pair from 2012 here below.
