The Freegums collabo design stands among the LeBron 9′s most visually impress5e colorways, one so detailed they’re a steep challenge for today’s popular color-swap custom artists. Gourmet Kickz tried his hand back in February and came up with something that might even be more eye-catching than the original, and now a guy who’s building a reputation for some of the custom market’s most ingenious designs has offered his perspect5e. The ROM x Nike LeBron 9 ’Freegums All-Over’ is the opposite of GK’s in terms of its color/pattern blocking, and this pair’s large black and white sweeps g5e it an overall cleaner look while still thoroughly examining its inspiration. Are these the best LeBron 9 customs we’ve seen on Sneaker News? Click through Nike Free Run 3.0 to see a bunch more images and let us know what you think with a comment.

Nike recent Basketball Footwear line has been impress5e to say the least but here’s an unreleased sample that is downright hypnotic; originally slated to be a Fall/Winter 2010 release, this scrapped sample takes notes from the classic T.V. show ‘The Twilight Zone’ and features a reflect5e glow-in-the-dark UV sensit5e in the upper and features the spiraling graphic on the upper as well as the bottom sole, viewable through the translucent outsole. Unfortunately you won’t see these on the NBA hardwood since this Twilight Zone Speedcut sample was not produced – perhaps too much resemblance to the Reebok Shaqnosis – but it sure is interesting for Nike to go forward with such an interesting concept on a basketball shoe. Take a look at the extra shots of this sample after the jump and let us know what you think of the idea. via fatlace.
