Lebron VI Akron Release
Leading the way on a big weekend of releases is the Lebron VI Akron, at House of Hoops. The shoe drops ahead of the weekend releases on Friday 3/13 (everything else hits Saturday, stay tuned for specifics). This hometown tribute has an upper detailed like an urban mural with an Akron city-scape, which is set off by a very clean white toe-box. With all of the Lebron VI color-ups hitting, this one stands out as a real winner. Detailed shots after the jump, enjoy.
Lebron CTK 3/28 at House of Hoops
The Zoom Lebron VI “Christ the King” is going to be at House of Hoops this coming Saturday 3/28. Not a biblicial reference, the shoe is actually calling out Christ the King High School in Queens, New York, known for their top-tier basketball team (similar to Kobe’s Rice High School relationship) There’s been some confusion over shifts in release date, but now it’s confirmed to be there on Saturday. This is a very limited run so get there early. Store shots below with more angles after the jump. Good luck coppin yours.
Lebron & Kobe All-Star editions
Lebron and Kobe All-Star shoes will be part of the All-Star Pack hitting all three House of Hoops and 5 select AZ Foot Lockers on 2/7. The Zoom Kobe IV and Zoom Lebron VI will be matched up to their squad’s colors, with blue for the East and red for the West.

Nike Zoom LeBron VI ‘Witness Gold’ Pack
While the Zoom LeBron VI will receive its general release in the Black/White/Varsity Red colorway next month, Nike has plans to first commemorate the Gold Medal victory by the US Senior Men’s Basketball Team at this summer’s 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. More specifically, there will be a special ‘Witness Gold’ package that celebrates LeBron James’ Gold Medal and includes a pair of the ‘United We Rise’ Zoom LeBron VI, a gold commemorative box and a limited edition t-shirt.
Launching this Saturday at Harlem’s House of Hoops, each pack will be individually lasered by number and is limited to 114 total sets. 66 packs will release domestically, while four stores in China will receive 6 packs each and one lucky China-based store will receive 24 packs. The pack of course is ideally limited to one pack per person, so please refrain from gettin’ your ebay on. On the shoes, you’ll notice the phrase ‘Witness Gold’ embossed along the forefoot support overlay, and King James’ signature and the Gold clinching date of 8.24.08 are also included along the medial collar. Nike Inc’s ‘United We Rise’ graphics are most noticeably found in 3M along the midsole and collar piping.
