Nike LeBron 4 “Black/Anthracite” FJ1597-001

Originally dropping in December of 2006, the Nike LeBron 4 “Blackout” is set to make a return in 2023. The Zoom LeBron IV was the first LeBron signature shoe to feature Foamposite uppers and a midsole-less design, with the stacked Zoom Air units visible through the deep flex-grooves on the outsole. The LeBron 4 was almost among the heaviest Nike LeBrons ever made, rendering them one of the most difficult shoes to hoop in.

The all-black look became wildly popular with Nike LeBrons once the King forged a friendship with Jay-Z. Many of his Player Exclusives and limited not-for-resale editions donned an all-black look, although this version hit retail for $125. Furthermore, the birthdate of LeBron’s eldest son Bronny James is featured inside the tongue.

Expect an official release this Holiday 2023 season with an MSRP of $240. Only men’s sizing will be available with special edition shoeboxes.
