Nike Air Max LeBron VIII – “Blackout”



It’s no secret that LeBron James and rapper Jay-Z have a friendship off the court. Many thought that friendship would ultimately land LeBron in New Jersey, where Jay is a minority owner of a Nets team that is expected to make a move to Brooklyn in 2012. Though things didn’t exactly work out that way, the two remain good friends. Perhaps Jay can show love to the South Beach Sidekick with this new “All Black Everything” colorway of the Air Max LeBron VIII.

This black on black colorway of LeBron’s eight signature sneaker features a black leather upper, with black Flywire panels working the heel and forefoot. Black mesh is spotted on the lower half of the tongue, while tonal nubuck appears on the eyestay and top of the tongue. Continuing a true “blackout” theme, a black 360-Air unit sits above a black rubber outsole to finish the look.

Look for these to drop in the coming months.
