LeBron James Confirms the Release of His Nike Retro Signature Shoes
On Thursday night, NBA superstar LeBron James took to digital sports publication Uninterrupted to announce the rerun of his very first Nike signature sneaker, the Air Zoom Generation Retro.
The Nike Air Zoom Generation was very first sneaker LeBron sported during his Rookie season in the NBA and is returning for the very first time since 2003. Inspired by the Hummer H2 LeBron received while in high school, the silhouette made by the Swoosh was meant to represent James’ physical presence at a young age in the NBA. Dressed in a white and red upper, the shoe features hits of navy blue on the Swoosh logo, LeBron emblem and midosle. Molded mesh in the heel and midfoot provides ventilation as well as lightweight resistance. This release has been regarded as some of the best sneakers to ever come out of the Nike x LeBron partnership.
While Nike has yet to confirm the release date of the Nike Air Zoom Generation Retro, according to LeBron James, the shoes will be available very soon at Nike Basketball retailers. <ake sure to keep it locked with XXL for more details behind the first retro release of The King.
