LEBRON 9 "MIAMI HURRICANES"

These closely resemble the player edition colorway of the Lebron IX's that the University of Miami basketball team got to rock during the 2011 NBA season.  The main difference in the two releases is the logo on the tongue.

LEBRON 9 "SUMMIT LAKE"

Every year we get a new purple/teal edition of the Lebron flagship model; this colorway is usually assigned the "Summit Lake Hornets" nickname.  They are based off of the uniform of Lebron's childhood basketball team.
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2012
STYLE CODE: 469764 500
MATERIALS: Shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  My pair came with purple lebron laces
STREET VALUE: $200

LEBRON IX "MIAMI NIGHTS"

Such a fresh colorway.  I couldn't get the 8s so I had to settle with these 9s and I'm glad I did.  Whereas the MN 8's were difficult to get, these were fairly easy to attain if you paid attention when they dropped.  They take their inspiration from the city of Miami and the vivid colors that represent the nightlife there.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2011
STYLE CODE: 469764 002
MATERIALS: Shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  These come with both black and pink lebron laces.
STREET VALUE: $300

LEBRON IX "BLACK HISTORY MONTH"

Similar to Christmas, All-Star Weekend, and now Easter, certain Nike shoes typically get a special edition during February for Black History Month.  Here we get what appears to be a very straightforward colorway, with the exception of the hints of color on the interior and sole.  This is a bit of a change up from the previous years' gold-infused colorway.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2012
STYLE CODE: 530962 001
MATERIALS: Shiny leather, flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  These come with black laces and special BHM lacelocks.
STREET VALUE: $225.

LEBRON IX "DUNKMAN"

Every year there's a new Lebron Dunkman.  The IX's feature the dunkman logo on the back of each shoe per usual, although this year a few pairs released with a Swingman style halo around the logo.  The Swingman colorway released at the same time as these which might explain the production error, although the version I got is sans halo.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2012
STYLE CODE: 469764 006
MATERIALS: Shiny flywire and a carbon fiber-ish woven material.
COMES WITH:  These come with gray and black lebron laces with logos and 3M hits.
STREET VALUE: retail

LEBRON IX LOW "EASTER"

Just like several Christmas shoes release for NBA players, we also get some Easter-flavored kicks.  Here we have the first Lebron IX release in a lowtop with an exterior reminiscent of a shiny painted eggshell.
YEAR OF RELEASE:  2012
STYLE CODE: 510811 001
MATERIALS: Iridescent hyperfuse material covers the uppers.
COMES WITH:  These come with gray Lebron laces with logos.
