While Jay-Z and Kanye West are putting a great show together for their fans in the form of the Watch The Throne Tour, Nike has joined a small group of companies making merchandise to compliment the tour.

Nike has worked with both Jay and ‘Ye before on shoes, and with the brother-like relationship that Jay-Z has with LeBron James, it made sense for them to put out a special edition version of the LeBron 9, specifically for the Watch The Throne Tour.
The shoe is predominantly black with gold accents however the most interesting part is the lining and the laces that were inspired by the album artwork by Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci.

There is no word on whether or not the shoe will be made available to the public but LeBron already has a pair. He tweeted a picture of himself wearing the shoes to the Watch The Throne concert in Miami this week.
Hopefully the shoes will get released to the public. If not, you can take a look at a few close up pictures of the shoe in the attached gallery.
