LeBron James and his Los Angeles Lakers squad couldn’t beat Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns during the preseason, but he’s ready to take on his 21st NBA season head-on.
On the sneaker front, buzz continues to surround the Nike LeBron 21, a design by Jason Petrie inspired by clams protecting their pearls. The budget-friendlier LeBron Witness 8, however, has also enjoyed time in the spotlight given its value-price proposition, as well as a debut collaboration with FaZe Clan.
Before appearing in a full-fledge roster of Lakers-appropriate styles, the Air Max-cushioned sneaker is exploring its options. Recently, a mix of “Ashen Slate,” “Diffused Blue” and “University Blue” landed on the eighth Nike LeBron Witness silhouette. The bulk of the mixed-materials offering dons an almost-grey finish, but supporting accents deviate in stark contrast reminiscent of popular Air Jordan styles. Midsoles opt for a “White” hue that brings more attention to the upper, all while featuring a clear visible Air bubble at the rear foot.
Enjoy official photos of the pair ahead, and expect a nike.com launch before 2023 ends.
