When you put out a colorway as crazy as Vivid Orange, Cherry and white on a model as popular as the Nike LeBron 9 Low, people are going to talk. Soon after the first images of this spectacularly energetic summer colorup first surfaced, it was dubbed ‘Bubblicious’ for its resemblance to a bubble gum LeBron endorses, and has since been compared to everything from rainbow sherbet to an alternate look for the University of Tennessee women’s hoop squad. But in truth, this wild LeBron 9 Low was inspired by the ABA’s Miami Floridians, a team that beat the Heat to South Beach by a good twenty years. The Floridians’ size magenta, orange, black and white jerseys were resurrected as a Miami alternate this year, but field LeBron 9 Lows stand to be a mainstay for those looking to turn heads during the dog days. Check them out up close below and let us know if these’ll get your money during the upcoming Cinco de Mayo blowout. Photos: HK
