For nearly twenty years, LeBron James and the Nike family have been partners. “The kid from Akron” is eager to unveil the Nike LeBron 21 to the world as he begins his 21st professional season.

James’ 21st trademark model has not yet been officially announced by the company, although the sneaker is similar to its direct predecessor. Along with other designs from the extensive Nike LeBron collection, the LeBron 21 is ready to narrate different parts of the current Los Angeles Laker’s adventure. James has made no secret of his affinity for scary movies, and it looks that the LeBron 21 will be a sneaker version of his interest.

Red suede makes up much of the upper; the spine is where the discontinuity is most evident. A rope-like texture, reminiscent of the ropes at vintage movie theaters, accentuates the shining plate at the heel. Conversely, sockliners decorated in graphics reminiscent of popcorn and tongue labels shaped like ticket stubs pay homage to the silver screen. The isolated units opt for a purple, white, and semi-translucent blue combination instead of the movie pattern underneath.

Take advantage of this extremely early look at the shoes, and keep an eye out for their nike.com premiere before the end of 2023.
