LeBron James continues redefining basketball's landscape on and off the court, with his signature sneaker line no exception. The Nike LeBron 21, his latest model with Nike, is a testament to this legacy. Drawing profound inspiration from his daughter Zhuri and the resilient nature of oyster shells, the theme encapsulates the protective bond between a father and daughter, akin to how an oyster safeguards a pearl within. The LeBron 21's colorways have thus far embraced this narrative, showcasing variations inspired by diverse pearls like Abalone, Dragon, and Tahitian. The latest addition, set for a December release, is the Conchiolin colorway, named after the protein that contributes to the strength of a mollusk's shell.
Distinguishing itself with a striking white and black combination, the upper of this LeBron 21 boasts a pearlized finish. This design exhibits a glossy, pristine white surface that beautifully captures the light. Black accents offer a bold contrast, adorning the tongue, collar, and lining of the lateral Swoosh. A unique feature is the teal accents incorporated into the medial Swoosh, eyestays, and heel, lending a subtle yet impactful splash of color to the design. This choice of palette not only reflects the Conchiolin theme but also adds an element of elegance to the sneaker. The design is completed with a supportive black foam midsole, ensuring comfort and performance, paired with a durable white rubber outsole.
The Nike LeBron 21 Conchiolin will release December 19, 2023, through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $200.
