As LeBron James continues to set unprecedented milestones in his illustrious NBA career, his signature sneaker line with Nike evolves alongside, capturing the essence of his legacy and the spirit of his achievements. Among these, the LeBron 21 stands out, especially with the recent unveiling of the Blue Diver colorway. This latest iteration follows the Algae colorway, which James wore as he surpassed the 40,000-point mark, cementing his status as the first NBA player to reach this incredible achievement.
The Blue Diver rendition of the LeBron 21 immerses itself in the aquatic theme central to this model's design philosophy, which is inspired by an oyster protecting a precious pearl. Featuring a sleek patent leather upper that shimmers in various shades of blue, this sneaker echoes the depth and mystery of the ocean. The light blue base is complemented by darker blue accents on the medial Swoosh and the lateral Swoosh's outline, creating a visual depth akin to the layers of the sea.
LeBron's unmistakable signature adorns the suede section of the tongue, while the heel tab is branded with a nod to this sneaker being the 21st model in LeBron's line. The sneaker incorporates a 360-degree cable lockdown system under its patent leather overlay, ensuring a secure and supportive fit designed to meet the demands of one of basketball's most outstanding athletes. This support is paired with a blue Air Zoom-cushioned midsole for unparalleled responsiveness and a tonal outsole for durable traction.
The Nike LeBron 21 Blue Diver will release on March 15, 2024, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men's and grade school sizing, retail prices are set at $200 for men and $160 for grade school sizes.
