LeBron James, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar, has announced the launching of his 21st signature sneaker with Nike, as he continues to be their most visible athlete. His lifetime contract means that countless LeBron models will be released for years to come, and Nike will keep it interesting with new concepts each time. Nike recently released two new future Nike LeBron 21 hues.
This Christmas season, Nike is launching a slew of basketball sneakers, including new and throwback renditions of famous signature models from stars like LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and the late Kobe Bryant. Nike just unveiled the return of LeBron’s fourth sneaker, the Nike LeBron 4, in a classic hue. Only a week later, Nike revealed two new hues for LeBron’s current model. Keep an eye on our Sneakers news for more future releases and breaking news!
The first pair is called “Akoya,” after a type of pearl-carrying oyster. Zhuri, James’ daughter, inspired the sneaker, which is designed to resemble the outer shell of an oyster. The uppers are pearly white with bright orange accents on the logos and heel of the shoe. Light Bone/Campfire Orange-Celestine Blue-Pink Rise-Dark Russet is the official color code. They’ll be available on September 28, 2023, for $200. They will be accessible through the Nike SNKRS app and Nike shops worldwide.
The second pair will have a similar concept and will be called “Abalone Pearl.” While the first pair is inspired by the oyster shell, this pair is inspired by the priceless pearl within the oyster and stands out with a wild blue and green top. The iridescent pattern on the uppers resembles the reflections of sea water and light bouncing off a pearl. The outsole will be ocean blue, and it will reach up through the tongue and sockliner. Although no official release date has been announced, these are expected to follow in the footsteps of its predecessor.
If you can get your hands on one of them, it goes without saying that you must also purchase the other to complete this fantastic sneaker duet. It’ll be interesting to see what other ideas Nike’s design staff can come up with for LeBron James this season.
