Orange & Blue LeBron Shoe Says 'I 'Love' NY'

Dec 31, 2009 2:22 PM EST

Another tease for Knicks' fans or an indicator about LeBron's immediate future?

The new shoe from LeBron James -- the Nike Air Max LeBron VII Hardwood Classic edition -- are New York's colors and inscribed with tantalizing clues from Nike and James.

"[T]he newest, yet-to-be released kicks are not only a bright orange and blue - the colors of the New York Knicks - but turning over the shoes also reveals an I "LOVE" NY message on the outsole, and inside on the insole is an L23 styled question mark," writes The Cleveland Leader. "There's no doubt about the message that these shoes are sending." Indeed, the message itself seems to be doubt.

In any event, James has a new sneaker that is likely to cause another stir and more marketing buzz for Nike.

I honestly don't give a flying fuck about Lebron's love of New York.

The column makes reference to those supposed LeBron 'Knick' shoes that made the rounds on the web yesterday. Talking about the LeBron James free-agent hysteria in New York, columnist Marc Berman writes,

It's so surreal that a hoax was perpetrated on the Web in the past days -- reporting Nike had released pictures of a soon-to-be released new Knicks LeBron shoe in blue and orange -- with "I love New York" pictured on the orange sole along with "L23" shaped in a question mark.

A Nike spokesman told The Post yesterday it was a fake. It looks as though it's being sold on e-Bay, so buyer, beware.

Some pictures. The lion with the crown signifies he will go to New York and become the King. The question mark states he is not sure. He is fucking with the Cavs and Knicks here. Nike's marketing abilities have to be praised.

It's a fake. But if these things keep cropping up, at what point does the league step in and tell the product-holders to stop messing with their players?

Photoshopped. I can tell by the pixels.

On the bottom photo, you can see the 4 markers he used to create the curve on the upper-left corner.
