Nike and LeBron James continue to redefine basketball footwear with their enduring partnership, constantly introducing innovative designs that capture the essence of LeBron's dynamic play and unique style. The latest in this lineage is the Nike LeBron 21 in the Aragonite colorway. This release follows the exciting updates to the LeBron NXXT Gen series, which includes the First Game and Multi-Color versions.
The LeBron 21 Aragonite stands out with its unconventional material choice. The upper is adorned with a washed denim fabric, a refreshing deviation from typical basketball sneaker materials, giving it a casual yet stylish edge. The denim's classic blue is tastefully contrasted with minty green accents found on the tongue, sockliner, and laces, adding a splash of vibrancy to the design. Earthy tones grace the tongue tag and heel tab, blending seamlessly with the Swoosh's lining. The sneaker is balanced with a clean white foam midsole and a timeless gum rubber outsole, ensuring both comfort and durability on and off the court.
Adding to the uniqueness of this release, the LeBron 21 Aragonite comes with an oyster-inspired pamphlet, a nod to the sneaker's inspiration of how an oyster protects a pearl. This pamphlet houses the technical details of the LeBron 21, providing insights into the sneaker's design and functionality.
The Nike LeBron 21 Aragonite was released early in Korea on December 20, 2023, and is set to release on February 8, 2024, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store worldwide. Available in men’s and GS sizes, the retail price is set at $200 and $160, respectively. Stay updated on this release and more by downloading the Sole Retriever mobile app.
