Nike Zoom Soldier III

Although LeBron James is one of my least favorite players, I'll start off this post highlighting his Zoom Soldier III. Every year, LeBron goes through the season in his latest signature model, then switches into a new one for his playoff run.

The first, the Zoom Soldier, was a great shoe, and I had the original Navy/White colorway. The Zoom Soldier was the only thing that ever made me like LeBron.

The ZS3 are a decent looking shoe, and the POP, or playoff pack colorway is the best. This colorway remindes me of the Air Jordan XI a little bit, with the white upper and black patent.

With LeBron being arguably Nike's biggest athlete, all of his shoes come out in MANY colorways, even his team shoes. The ZS3 is no different. So far, four have released - This home one, an away, an white/navy for the Cavs alternates, and a HORRID camo colorway.

As LeBron always likes to bite Michael Jordan, his teammates have begun wearing his signatures like the Bulls did in the 90s. When the Cavs took the floor for Game 4, wearing their alternate jerseys, it seemed like EVERY Cavalier was wearing Soliders. I'm not sure, but I imagine that Joe Smith was the only not, because he is signed to adidas.

Here you can see Boobie Gibson wearing them, and he usually wears Nike Hyperdunks for every game. Mo Williams wore adidas his whole career before coming to Cleveland, but this season he's worn Hyperdunks, and now he wears LeBrons.

Perhaps the Cavaliers should stop wearing LeBron's sneakers - Because it sure didn't help them win...
