Nike Set To Launch The LeBron 21 Ahead Of LeBron James’ 21st Season In The NBA

Nike Set To Launch The LeBron 21 Ahead Of LeBron James’ 21st Season In The NBA

In preparation for the upcoming 2023-24 NBA Season, Nike is releasing the latest technology in LeBron James‘ storied signature roster on Thursday. From Nike.com to neighborhood doors and retail partners, the LeBron 21 “Akoya” introduces the Zoom cushioned ensemble with a pearlescent theme.

Inspired by his daughter Zhuri – much like how the LeBron 2o was unofficially built in honor of his oldest son Bronny – LeBron’s 21st signature silhouette takes the low-profile approach from last year’s counterpart and updates with a supple leather tooling. Celebrating the natural beauty of an Akoya pearl and mirroring LeBron’s protective nature as a father, the dominant “Light Bone” colorway is infused with contrasting hits of “Dark Russet” and “Campfire Orange” which underscore the profile Swoosh and the decadent heel detailing. A supple quilted tooling ascertains the tongue construction imitating the interior of a shell, further imbuing the beauty of fatherhood and protection into the inaugural pair.

The Nike LeBron 21 “Akoya” is scheduled to release tomorrow, September 28th, for a retail price of $200. In the meantime, check out where to buy the pair below via our store list.
