An extension of LeBron James’ signature line-up, the Nike LeBron NXXT Gen first made its debut at the beginning of 2023. And though it’s been over a half a year since then, the silhouette is only now donning the Lakers’ signature colors.
Marking the first time the silhouette has represented the team in an inline capacity, the Nike LeBron NXXT Gen “Lakers” is a relatively straightforward homage to the team. A dark purple is applied across the shoe’s mesh upper and laces, complementing the hits of gold that mark the outsole as well as the Nike embroidery along the tongue. What’s more, in further homage to LA’s own, the pair boasts gilded accessories along its heel as well a Swoosh clad in a similar luxurious, iridescent finish.

In unrelated news, the Yeezy Boost 700 Wave Runner is returning later this week.
