LeBron James (Born December 30, 1984) is an American professional basketball player for the Cleveland Cavaliers of the NBA. Nicknamed ""King James,"" he was a three
-time ""Mr. Basketball"" of Ohio in high school, and was highly promoted in the national media as a future NBA superstar while a sophomore at St. Vincent–St. Mary High School. Now, let’s know the detail information of LeBron James Shoes. At the tender age of 18, Lebron James inked an $80 million contract with Nike to be the exclusive outfitter of his footwear and clothing needs for 7 years. This was the largest shoe deal ever made and especially for an 18 year old. The first LeBron James Shoes were released only a few months after the deal was made. Nike has released 3 models of the Air Zoom Lebron series so far as well as many exclusive Lebron Air Force Ones and a few special edition Lebron James Dunks SB. Keep your eyes open and your wallet full, there are many more exclusive colorways coming out of each model including SVSM colorways of every model of LeBron James shoes. The LeBron James Shoes deal was far larger than the one Nike made with Michael Jordan. Jordan received only a 5 year, $2.5 million dollar contract. Lebron James earned more than 25 times more per year with his sneaker deal than Jordan did with his LeBron James Shoes!
