Nike Basketball has a penchant to get a bit creat5e with Nike LeBron colorways

Nike Basketball has a penchant to get a bit creat5e with Nike LeBron colorways, but one you can continually bank on every year is the tonal-black ‘Blackout’ colorway. The LeBron 9 proves to be no exception to this unwritten rule, as we get another look at the upcoming release of the Black/Anthracite colorway that we first showed you not long ago. It’s clear that the LeBron signature has been conduc5e to wacky, high-energy colorways (and with Nike iD now on the on-deck circle), but the pereial ‘All-Black-Everything’ is one of the more popular ones for a reason. Expect these in stores on November 23rd (the day before Thanksg5ing) and hit the jump for a detailed look.

Carmelo Anthony was brought onto Team Free Run in 2003 as a prospect5e next-of-kin to the Free Run Brand legacy. Arr5ing in November is the Free Run Melo M7, Carmelo Anthony’s seventh signature shoe with Free Run Brand, and it’s quite clear that Melo’s designers followed the ‘Break to Build’ proverb and started from scratch. Do a quick overview of the M7 and you can see that very little carried over from the M6. Strip the upper of the oddly shaped yet square panels and add f5e vertical panels that allow for more curling, further encouraged by the new grooved outsole. Add in visible Air to the Zoom at the forefoot and you have a basketball shoe as comfortable as any other, and pop in enough ventilation holes and a mesh underlayer to keep your feet as cool as ice. Carmelo’s got narrow feet so like the previous Melo releases you might expect a snug fit, but the flex-construction should allow for some elbow room. The M6 was lifestyle-inspired, and with basketball shoes, it’s a tough task combining the two, so the M7 went back to basketball basics and ended up being one of the best Melo designs yet. And like all his previous releases, the Melo’s seventh is filled with personalized touches and easter eggs all over ONE and F5E on each shoe, MELO spelled out with traction grooves on the sole, etc.. Watch for the Free Run Melo M7 come November 20th, 2010, and check out the detailed gallery after the jump. via Dunk.
