Nike teamed up with basketball superstar lebron james to launch the latest version of LeBron's eighth pair of signature boots-LeBron 8V/2. This new sneaker is lighter than the first edition LeBron 8 1 oz (28.35g, American version for men's size 9). It is the first Nike basketball shoe that completely adopts the new generation of Flywire flying line technology on the upper, and uses reinforced TPU lightweight mesh cloth as support in key parts.
"LeBron 8 gave me great support and protection in the first half of the regular season." LeBron said, "In the crucial second half of the game, LeBron 8 V/2 is lighter and closer to the ground, which shows that I have made progress with the progress of the season. I also chose the symbol of the lion-a lion waiting for its prey-to symbolize that the team is heading for a winning season. "
Jason Petrie is the chief designer of LeBron 8 V/2. When he first designed sports shoes, he had a plan for the development of sports shoes. "When we first started designing LeBron 8, the first question we asked LeBron was how to make him have a better experience on the court." Petrie said, "We have designed a pair of sneakers that are constantly evolving with the progress of the season, which can be closely related to the evolution of LeBron's state and technical level during the season."
In order to build a pair of lighter and simpler LeBron 8 V/2, the designer adopted a new generation of Flywire flying wire technology as reinforcement and support. At the same time, TPU and lightweight mesh materials are strategically used in high wear areas, which enhances the wear resistance of this area. In addition, LeBron 8 V/2 has always maintained excellent shock absorption performance, adopting Max Air 360 air cushion unit specially designed for basketball, including Cushlon shoe bed heel air cushion unit and high-performance insole with air holes.
Similar to the first edition of LeBron 8, the pattern design of LeBron 8 V/2 is also inspired by the state that lions and LeBron are as brave as lions hunting on the court. There are many noteworthy details on the sneakers. For example, there is a lion on the tongue facing its opponent, ready to go. The eyelets are shaped like the number 8, representing LeBron's eighth pair of signature basketball shoes, which makes LeBron's personalized design more perfect.
