While the Zoom LeBron VI will receive its general release in the Black/White/Varsity Red colorway next month, Nike has plans to first commemorate the Gold Medal victory by the US Senior Men’s Basketball Team at this summer’s 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. More specifically, there will be a special ‘Witness Gold’ package that celebrates LeBron James’ Gold Medal and includes a pair of the ‘United We Rise’ Zoom LeBron VI, a gold commemorative box and a limited edition t-shirt.
Launching this Saturday at Harlem’s House of Hoops, each pack will be individually lasered by number and is limited to 114 total sets. 66 packs will release domestically, while four stores in China will receive 6 packs each and one lucky China-based store will receive 24 packs. The pack of course is ideally limited to one pack per person, so please refrain from gettin’ your ebay on. On the shoes, you’ll notice the phrase ‘Witness Gold’ embossed along the forefoot support overlay, and King James’ signature and the Gold clinching date of 8.24.08 are also included along the medial collar. Nike Inc’s ‘United We Rise’ graphics are most noticeably found in 3M along the midsole and collar piping.
