Nike Air Max LeBron VII (7) | Detailed Look
Jun 26, 2009 | Comments 34
For the 7th year, Nike and LeBron James are set to release a signature Nike LeBron sneaker. After making it to the Easter Conference Finals in the VI, LeBron will have nothing on his mind other than the Chip in the VII. Technologically speaking, the Nike Air Max LeBron VII is a swift departure from the the Zoom LeBron 1-6. For the first time, the LeBron line will feature Nike's Air Max technology instead of the Nike Zoom technology. Also, the Nike Nike Air Max LeBron VII will be much lighter than any of LeBron's previous signatures. Usually, LeBron and Nike wait to release a lighter LeBron sig for the playoffs, this time, LeBron's sig will be light out of the gate.
Aesthetically the Nike Air Max LeBron VII, designed by Jason Petrie, features a clean performance Basketball silhouette with several hits of LeBron branding throughout.
The Nike Air Max LeBron VII is set to release during the Fall of 2010. Read on for more.

Not bad. I just they do one more Foamposite Lebron shoe before it's all said and done. The IV's were greatness.
Still looks like a boot! LOL
WOW!!! I'm feelin' these! Dope, clean lines -- look forward to seeing what they do with different colorways...
And that huge air pocket is bananas!
those are hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't wait for these!!!!! These look so comfortable!!!!
Fake Picture!!!
No they aren't.
There are fake colorways, but these aren't one of them AND it's the actual desing of the shoe.
FAIL!
you need to make some friends
they shouldnt have used max air IMO..looks heavy
it does lol
These pics are fakes. the white and red colorway don't even have flywire, they have woven leather on top. If you wanna see the real pics goto nikelebron.net
WRONG!
The fake colorways have the woven leather on them.
THE REAL ONE (pictured above) have flywire.
Try again!
i like these a lot, finally a flywire shoe without that horrible lunar foam
what separates these from any other nike team shoe besides the medial lebron logo......dissapointment
If these are fakes, gimme some fakes. The LeBron line had gone downhill since the IIIs (the IVs were okay but waaay too heavy). These are sweet as hell.
Damn, look at all that air, straight playing on an air mattress
Is it me or do these look/feel for like Kobe's than LeBron's....
more like*
these r cool, but look kinda heavy...
Uh...I'm not as enthusiastic about sneakers as I used to be, but from past experiences, "official" pics in June are usually quite different from what we may/may not see in August/September.
As for the use of Air Max over Zoom Air...I prefer Zoom Air, but then again, I'm not 6'8" 260-something.
Why do all, if not most, of Lebron's shoes look more like boots than ballin' shoes? Or is it just me? They better be mighty comfy for all that phugliness.
Shoulda stayed with the VI, seriously. One of the best ballin shoes I've ever played in.. Comfortable, ankle support, heel support with the double stack, looked the ****** jamz.
I do play Hypermaxes now though and the max in those hold up very well..
Why would he wear a signature shoe, that's numbered season after season?
I hope you mean "the same type of tech as the VI" because that comment was dumb!
they look like throwback Griffeys
These are AMAZING! I have never bought any previous models of his shoes. I would buy these in a heart beat in this colorway! SOOOO good!
des is hot and all but for a signature shoe i don't know how much um feelin dem. kinda seem like a shoe dat could be a team shot or sum like dat. like a special nike shoe how the hyperdunks were.
I guarantee you these are NOT the finished product..so dont get too hyped.
they look like a jazzed up version of the bb 2...too me personally design aint bad but they look heavy...and i dont really rock heavy shoes..i am 5'7 and barely 145..ill stick with the zsiii if i rock brons!
To everyone who says this is hot is stupid...i hope this is just a sample or some type of test shoe...cuz this SUCKS!!!really tho...look at its design...stolen from several shoes...upper is partly AJXX3, then hyperdunk, then silhouette is uptempo air...very unoriginal, horrible design, and lacks that basketball shoe look...
LeBron's shoes always have a certain bulkiness to them and this one isn't an exception. Plus they remind me vaguely of the Griffey's air max that came out in the early 2000's. The sole design is plain but overall good work.
love em !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im glad nike followed up wit somethinf like these i cant wait to see the other colorways
though i like the look of these shoes, i think that the designer worried too much about the look of the shoe rather than the performance aspect of it. take the use of flywire for example, it is practically pointless as there is very little of it and the parts that should b covered with flywire are instead replace with leather with adds weight for example the nike swoosh on the inside of the shoe....why isn't there flywire there like on the outside of the shoe. and also if there is going to be an inner sock for the shoe why bother using leather to sustain the support of the shoe it makes the feet feel too hot when you are playing basketball. though haha i'll probably buy these shoes as i've played in every single lebron shoe and have played quite well. if this shoe is better than the 3's or the 6's then i will be amazed and as those are two of the best shoes i've ever played in, and i will have to extremely regret what i've just written.
Fakes?! i dont think KITC would post some fake S$%@#
