First Look At The Nike Air Zoom Generation Retro

Update: LeBron James confirmed that Nike is indeed releasing the Air Zoom Generation “First Game” very soon. Read more here.

For years, sneakerheads have been wondering if Nike would ever go down the Retro route with LeBron James’ signature shoes. Given how Nike Basketball gave Kobe the treatment twice with the celebrated “Prelude” Pack and “Fade To Black” Collection, it seemed like only a matter of time before LeBron’s first era of Nike sig shoes would make their way back to stores shelves. The wait seems to be a lot shorter than we think because a first look at the Nike Air Zoom Generation Retro just surfaced.

The Air Zoom Generation is LeBron’s first official signature shoe despite not having his name attached to the shoes. The colorway seen here is the famed “First Game” colorway; it features the date of that debut game embroidered on the inner lining of the shoe, just like the original.

This first leaked photo also pictures a red slide-out box, which has been more in use for Nike’s higher-end Sportswear offerings such as the ACRONYM Prestos, the Supreme x Air Max 98, and much more. Stay tuned for release dates.
