The Miami Heat recently had their first training camp at the Hurlburt Field and Eglin Air Force Base since LeBron James joined the team last season. As a result, the military green shoe will be a part of the line’s “The Cannon” edition, Fox Sports reports.

 

The website reports Nike says the shoe will be released first at midnight Sunday in South Florida ''as a sign of appreciation and respect for LeBron's South Florida fans and community.''

 

The sneakers retail price for $170.
