Several months ago LeBron James hosted the King City Classic in Akron, Ohio. The all-star game, featuring many of the world’s brightest young basketball talents, received its own Nike Basketball PE (Player Exclusive). More particularly, this all-patent Nike Zoom Soldier III (3) in black/varsity red/old gold was given to the game’s participants. The shoe features Zoom Air underneath and two midfoot straps for a ride that’s comfortable and supportive enough for a King. The Nike Zoom Soldier III (3) King City Classic PE will stay unreleased for now, but never count out a House of Hoops limited drop down the road!

LeBron’s King City Classic All-Star Game brings together some of the country’s finest college recruits. The ’09 competition (it happened back in July) unveiled a new version of the Nike Zoom Soldier III (3). Distinguished by its patent-heavy upper, the Nike LeBron product features a predominantly black upper with splashes of gold along the midsole and at the heel. The midfoot straps are toned in red with black accents. There is no word on whether the Nike Zoom Soldier III (3) “King City Classic PE” will hit stores, but we’ll update when more pertinent information hits the surface.
