With already a vast variety of colorways either released or already on the way, Petrie's list included everything from GR's to unreleased colorways we all wished we can get our hands on (including myself.)

In addition to styling the "War Vet" F&F Nike LeBron 9 Low, DJ Clark Kent also worked on a special "112" edition decked out in the signature colors of the ATF Crew.

Last summer saw Nike Basketball cook up several LeBron 9 PS Elite PEs such as this never before seen Statue of Liberty edition.

[quote="souljasai"]Will Neva buy a pair of geybrons[/quote] Fascinating. I didn't know Lebron was "gey". :smh: Dumb comment coulda kept to your 'gey' self.
Dunkin-Swingman Cannon-Volt China All the rest are in distant 4th, IMO. Surprised that Miamis & Xmas didn't make his list tho...they're obviously liked by most and I don't mind em, they just don't compare to my top 3, IMO. Those Thrones are preddy ill...diggin those for some reason. Sock liner is an eye catcher...
interesting choices.
