LeBron James is one of the few things that never changes, no matter how many years pass. The Los Angeles Lakers forward made history tonight when he started in his 20th NBA All-Star game.

 

In celebration of his 21st NBA season, James donned his shoes in homage to a sports star who wore the number 21. The head football coach of the Colorado Buffaloes and two-sport legend Deion Sanders served as an inspiration for James’ footwear.

In celebration of ‘Coach Prime’s’ 21st season (and 21st signature footwear), James unveiled a special colorway of his iconic sneakers.

James revealed a colorway of the Nike LeBron 21 that was never seen before.

Official sales of the Nike LeBron 21 began in September 2023, with adult sizes retailing for $200. Over the last five months, a number of colorways have been introduced, and online buyers can browse a large assortment on the Nike website.

It takes skill to design a performance basketball sneaker that can hold up the NBA’s most dominant player. For a lightweight, low-profile variant, Nike combined a cabling system with Zoom Air cushioning for this reason. Extra stability for precise cutting is provided by the sturdy, top-loaded plastic plate located in the midfoot.

It is difficult for any sneaker to distinguish out in the Nike LeBron signature line with 21 installments. However, the Nike LeBron 21 made a message tonight that sportsmen from many different sports will find meaningful.
