LeBron James is just 158 points shy of surpassing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the NBA’s All-Time Points Leader. While the League, fans and everyone in between are estimating that the momentous occasion will take place next month, the Beaverton-based brand has its own plans to cement and honor the infamous record during All-Star weekend, with the four-time Champion’s Nike LeBron 20 “All-Star” colorway.
While Giannis’ Nike Zoom Freak 4 looked to the Jurassic Period for influence, the Nike LeBron 20 mimics the centuries-old discoveries and secrets that lay preserved in prehistoric icebergs, casting a vibrant “Blue Lightning” hue across its tongue construction and sock liner in a clad fashion. Infusing its tightly knit upper in a marbled wash of the latter in tandem with splashes of “Coconut Milk”, the doubled-up midfoot Swooshes inject a Travis Scott-esque personality with its light cream and presiding “Iron Grey” Checks indulging in a reverse composition. Proffering a wash of premium embellishments through the golden metallic dubraes and eye stays a faded peach sole unit underfoot coordinates its forefoot engravings with The King’s many record-breaking accomplishments. Embossed at its heel tab reading “The Records of King James” and along the tongue rendering “Legacy Preserved”, the honorary ensemble mirrors the Freak 4’s bone-style roman numerals exercising the year at the base of the quarter in conclusion.
Set to release on February 16th, enjoy official images of the Nike LeBron 20 “All-Star” below while we sit tight on further release details in the meantime.
