With all the attention LeBron James and his band of merry NBA free agents have been getting, no one noticed a new colorway of his Nike LeBron VII P.S. Or it could be because his post season was shorter than he would have liked. Or, because images, and vid, of the Nike Air Max LeBron VIII have started making the rounds.

Whatever the reason, this Black, Varsity Purple and Orion Blue colorway is tough. The patent leather upper has been swiped out for durabuck while the flywire and Zoom Air remains intact. Definitely a worthy addition to any collection either for show or for ballers looking for a comfortable shoe to hoop in.
