With two types of Nike Air designed for soft
take-offs and brutal landings, and super-strong Flywire to help keep
your foot locked down, the LeBron 9 Limited iD Basketball Shoe defies
expectations. It's the first LeBron shoe by NIKEiD, complete with
aggressive outsoles, modern materials and colors with meaning.
CHOOSE YOUR SURFACE
Hardwood. Blacktop. Concrete. With the LeBron Air Max
9 iD, you can choose an outsole made for the surface you play on most.
The solid and gum rubber outsoles are ideal for practices in the gym,
while the translucent option (available February 2012) offers extra
durability for pickup games on the blacktop.
PICK YOUR MATERIALS
And for extra breathability when the game heats up, a mesh option keeps air flowing.
CRAFT YOUR COLORS
Follow in LeBron's footsteps by choosing colors from
his schools: St. Vincent-St. Mary High School, and Summit Lake Middle
School.
LEAVE YOUR MARK
Make this basketball shoe your own by adding personal
iDs to the inside tongues (independent left and right, five characters
or less).
FEATURED TECHNOLOGIES
HYPERFUSE
Hyperfuse construction fuses three different layers
of material using a hot-melt process, creating an unusually sturdy shoe
with superior breathability. This breakthrough process provides a more
consistent fit and almost completely eliminates stitching on the upper
for a clean, modern finish. The base layer is made of a synthetic
material to provide a supportive backing. In the middle, mesh offers
lightweight breathability. And the top layer is made of Thermoplastic
polyurethane (TPU) film, which provides excellent durability.
NIKE ZOOM
Nike Zoom cushioning is part of the Nike Air
family, and—like its siblings—it’s lightweight and durable. Because Nike
Zoom cushioning is incredibly thin, it brings the foot closer to the
ground and enhances stability, especially during quick cuts and
multi-directional movements. After impact, the tightly stretched fibers
inside the pressurized air unit quickly bounce back into shape,
providing a super-responsive feel and improved awareness of the surface
you’re playing on.
FLYWIRE
Flywire helps provide ultra-lightweight support and
comfort for your foot. It gets its strength from thin Nylon fibers
strategically placed on the upper of the shoe to hold the foot in place,
helping to reduce slippage during activity. This allows for a massive
reduction in weight because material is used only where it’s needed for
structure.
MAX AIR
Part of the Nike Air family, Max Air was designed
to provide maximum impact protection during repetitive landings. Shoes
with Max Air feature less midsole material and larger-volume airbags for
lighter weight and maximum cushioning you can see.

For a Dummy you make a lot of sense "I put her on, I put her on, I put her on on on on on on" Follow me: @YouBigDummy
if you go to nikestore and put you mouse over the lebron image in the middle, it shows you how lebron ID'ed his. In the outsole part is says "translucent red" , so sounds like we'll get translucent soles at some point.
i like the first south beach nine. to bad they dont actually have that color on there otherwise i would have definitely had id'ed those because they look dope
