The Nike LeBron 8 shoes have evolved over the course of the season. We have seen from different versions’ changes both superficial and structural. Multiple colorways have been released, providing a deep palette of colors for both players and collectors to choose from.
There are three structural evolutions involving the LeBron 8- the latest collection of LeBron James Shoes. First to come out was the V1, a shoe equipped with an Air Max 360 sole and Nike's Flywire technology. Considered an evolution of the LeBron 7, this shoe provides ample support and comfort.
The Version 2 then came out. Armed with a modified upper, the carbon fiber panels are removed from the shoe and the base is wrapped in even more lightweight synthetic material and Flywire, making this shoe lighter than the V1. And then came out the PS. Now a full 2.5 ounces lighter than the V1, the materials for this shoe were radically modified. Flywire was replaced with the same mesh-type material seen in the Hyperfuse, the sole was replaced with a unit composed of an Air Max 180 heel unit and a Zoom Air unit in the forefoot.
The Nike LeBron 8 PS Finals edition just might have the flashiest color combination among all the PS edition shoes, perhaps maybe of the entire LeBron 8 series altogether. The base of the shoe is colored red, apparently in homage to his team, the Miami Heat. And if the fiery base is not enough, a smattering of other Heat colors: white, yellow, and black, combine forces to form a scorching visage that will surely catch your attention, and then some. The placing of the sub-colors work perfectly: the white tongue and lace, the black heel and sole, and the yellow lining of the Nike swoosh, perfectly compliment the red base.
The shoe debuted in Game 3 of the NBA Finals. And while the Heat eventually lost, this limited-edition shoe has carved a reputation for itself. It had closed out the LeBron 8 series in a style so explosive, you just have to wonder about the value of this shoe had the Heat managed to win the NBA title.
