Matt Varga While the records, accolades and iconic on-court moments are our most visible access to LeBron James’ athletic prowess, none of it is possible without some heavy off-season training. It’s that behind-the-scenes work that inspired the Nike LeBron TR1, the Kid From Akron’s first training model, making its debut earlier in 2024. While the introduction of the model came via weighty narrative pairs, alluding to longstanding LeBron motifs like the “Dunkman” or his “Zero Dark Thirty” social media blackouts, the next set of TR1 colorways takes on more reigned-in fare. A trio of fresh looks just hit Nike.com, each carrying easily-worn, accessible palettes.
We start on a black and gold do-up, a fittingly favored palette for the King, recently explored with the LeBron 22 “Mogul” and throughout his signature line as a whole. Then we jump to the “Glacier Blue” / “Baltic Blue” edition, presenting a more vibrant pair befitting the “daily driver” appeal that the model is aiming at, particularly striking with the frozen accents on the outsole and Swoosh. Finally, a pair in “Phantom” / “Light Bone” notches an easy layup, going all tonal for a shoe that’ll easily slide into any workout ‘fit you could possibly dream up.
Each of the new colorways for the Nike LeBron TR1 is available now via Nike.com, each carrying a $130 MSRP. Head just below for a full breakdown of the three pairs, including respective “Where To Buy” sections with direct shopping links included.
