Nike LeBron 9 Low - LeBronold Palmer


For the first time since LeBron unveiled it in July, we get a look at the unreleased "LeBronold Palmer" Nike LeBron 9 Low.

The shoe features a tropical, vacation-like motif, complete with a palm tree pattern and vivid accents splashed throughout a soft yellow base. Custom insoles printed with Arnold Palmer's famous part-tea, part-lemonade beverage clue you in on the source of the nickname. Golden tabs adorn the heel of each shoe, while orange Max Air units and partially translucent outsoles support the ride below.

You may have noticed some differences between this pair and the shoe LeBron wore this past summer. The top of the tongue, ventilated zones and midfoot support harness are a few that catch the eye right away.
