Arguably the frontrunner for this season's MVP award, Miami Heat forward LeBron James will take the court in Orlando next weekend to start his eighth All-Star Game. Lining up alongside teammates Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose, Carmelo Anthony and Dwight Howard, LeBron will lace up this "Galaxy" colorway of the Nike LeBron 9.
Inspired by the space suits of famous Ohio astronauts, the shoe sports an orange synthetic and textile upper, accented by metallic silver on the lace tab and Swoosh logos. A NASA-style lion mission patch adorns the tongue, while a galaxy print lines the interior. Finishing off the look below is a glow-in-the-dark translucent outsole.
Priced at $170, the "All-Star" LeBron 9 will be available next Friday, February 24 at retailers like Miami's Mr. R Sports.
