Nike LeBron James 9(IX) Black Purple Sneaker

Built to maximize the strengths of triple-threat players like LeBron, the Nike LeBron James 9(IX) Black Sneaker is the first in the signature series to combine Flywire technology and Hyperfuse construction. New support and cushioning features are designed for protection, lockdown and liftoff so you can cut sharper, accelerate quicker and control the court like never before.

Benefits:
Hyperfuse upper for ultra-lightweight durability and breathability
Flywire for super-lightweight support and lockdown control
Max Air 180 unit for cushioning and impact protection
Nike Zoom unit for low-profile, responsive cushioning

Origins:
Lock me down so I can fly. Protect me from myself. Make me light. This is what LeBron James requested to Nike designers for his ninth signature shoe and they didn't disappoint him. From lightweight cushioning to supportive Flywire, each feature of the LeBron 9 executes one or more of these needs. And because so much attention to detail was given to the performance attributes of the shoe, its style was born out of pure innovation.
