Last time around, LeBron flipped the script on his shoe game as only the King can. The encore is even better. The Nike LeBron XXI Premium "Armory Navy/Malachite/Spring Green/Green Strike" Men's Basketball Shoe has a cabling system that works with Air Zoom cushioning and a light, low-to-the-ground design, giving you agile fluidity without excess weight. Created for your ascent and the next generation of hoopers, it’s ideal for Bron-like open-floor attacks and rising toward the rim when the game’s pace turns up. For this special design we dove to the bottom of the sea, drawing inspiration from the oyster cultivation process. The glow-in-the-dark outsole takes it cues from the vibrant organisms dwelling about the ocean floor.
Benefits
- LeBron is the shield for his daughter, who helped the King grow as a man and softened him as a dad. He feels the need to protect her always, the same way an oyster shelters a pearl to reach its full potential. Exposed construction on the side of the heel gives a shell-like appearance. The perforated foam tongue is quilted, also imitating a shell’s appearance and providing a plush feel.
- We reinforced the lightweight mesh with a 360-degree zonal cabling system for optimal containment. We disguised it all by a premium, lightweight drapery for a cloaked finishing touch.
- An Air Zoom unit in the heel and forefoot supports landing and gives you a propulsive feeling. We paired them with a soft, springy foam to help ensure a pillowy feel.
- Dimensional mesh on the upper is durable and contained. Using lightweight materials, we striated the upper's venting to look like the veining of a shell, helping contain you during quick movements. Zonal perforations in the sandwich mesh and ventilation on both sides provide breathability.
- A top-loaded strong plastic shank helps keep you steady and gives you a better snap when exploding.
