NBA All-Star 2022 is here! With that, a slew of sneaker releases from all the major brands are set to release. This year is special, as the All-Star festivities are taking place in Cleveland, Ohio. To celebrate the occasion, Nike Basketball has created a unique LeBron 19 for King James’ return home.
Dubbed the “Chosen 1,” this Nike LeBron 19 was made for LeBron James to wear during the 2022 NBA All-Star Game. The sneaker features a rub-away upper that reveals graphics that pay homage to LeBron’s life and career. The same graphics can be seen on the custom printed insoles. Translucent hits on the upper, black accents and metallic gold detailing are finished off by a paint splattered midsole and icy blue translucent outsole. For additional flavor, each pair comes in special packaging with a souvenir ticket.
The Nike LeBron 19 Chosen 1 is set to release in February 2022. It will drop at Nike as well as select retailers in-store and online. They will be available in men’s sizes with a retail price to be announced. Keep it locked to our Twitter and Mobile App to stay up to date on future releases.
