words by Nick DePaula

Well it’s that time again, as later today Game 5 between the Cleveland Cavs and the Washington Wizards will tip off with LeBron et all hoping to finally put an end to all this madness. After rocking the Zoom LeBron V all season long and now the Zoom Soldier II through the playoffs, it was last year that ‘Bron wore perhaps his most daring shoe — the Zoom LeBron IV.

Here’s a first look at an unreleased sample of the LeBron IV that never made it. The Foamposite upper is an iridescent metallic silver tone, with the ankle collar made of shimmery green cobec and the swoosh a sharp neon yellow. There’s no official word on the inspiration behind this sample, but it appears that the University of Oregon Football team’s chameleon-esque helmets may have had a bit of influence on the colorway. (Maybe being a former Duck myself I’m just a bit hopeful that these can one day make it past production.)

There’s no plan to release these and at this point they’ll remain a sample, but at least we can hit you off with some pretty pictures.
