The Nike LeBron 9 was LeBorn James’ ninth signature shoe from Nike Basketball that was designed by Jason Petrie. Today, we take a look at arguably two of the best colorways of the silhouette.

Back in 2022, Nike Basketball released the limited Nike LeBron 9 “Watch The Throne” colorway to the public. The shoe was named and inspired by the 2011 album by Jay-Z and Kanye West and made for LeBron James and his inner circle. It features a Black upper with a lush Multicolor print on the inner lining and laces detailed with a Gold-plated lace jewels.

Also making a return in 2022 was the popular Nike LeBron 9 “Big Bang” colorway that was originally debuted during the 2012 All-Star Game. It features a Bright Orange upper with cosmic imagery on the inner lining and insoles. Highlighting the shoe is the glow-in-the-dark outsole.
