The Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier 9 ‘Freegums’ is a special edition sneaker that builds upon the success of the Nike LeBron 9 released in 2012. Designed in collaboration with Miami artist Alvaro Ilizarbe, aka Freegums, this limited edition shoe showcases his intricate black-and-white artwork on the upper and straps. To add a pop of color, the sneaker features Game Blue accents on the iconic Swoosh branding and the Zoom units located in both the heel and forefoot. The Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier 9 ‘Freegums’ was launched in October 2015, alongside a blue colorway version.
