Cleveland Cavaliers guard LeBron James will be wearing a new "Big Apple" version of his Nike Zoom Lebron VI sneaker during the Cavs November 25 game against the New York Knicks.

For the last three seasons, James has worn a special shoe for games played in New York. Last year, LBJ wore a pinstriped Nike shoe as an homage to the New York Yankees, his favorite baseball team. This year, LeBron's sneakers will be all red--a "Big Apple", if you will--with concrete-colored soles. The shoe will go on sale in New York on November 28 and cost around $140. You can view photos of the shoe here.

This isn't the first time James has worn customized Nikes. He has worn several China-themed kicks during games that were televised nationally in China.

LBJ's New York Nikes will also fuel speculation that James will sign with the New York Knicks or New Jersey Nets when he is able to opt out of his current contract with the Cavaliers in 2010.
