LeBron James Debuts a Purple Colorway of the Victor Victor x Nike Air Force 1 ‘01 Low

LeBron James still hasn’t announced where he’s going to play next season. If you ask Sixers fans, Cavs die-hards, Miami truthers, and Bay Area basketball obsessives, though, they’ll tell you he’s absolutely on his way to their preferred destination, and they’ve got the real estate tours and school enrollment documents from a cousin’s girlfriend’s uncle to prove it. One thing is certain: he’s not going back to the Lakers.

LeBron’s First Choice… Air Force 1s.

Before he makes his latest league-shifting decision, LeBron stepped out at Fanatics Fest to celebrate all things sports, and he took in the festivities wearing a new pair of Victor Victor collab Air Forces. Steven Victor’s latest Nike collab is helping to bring back the Air Force 1 ‘01 shape with a collection of monochrome leather Forces with his Victor Victor brand’s dog head logo on the heel.

After debuting the collection in black and yellow on the feet of Victor Wembanyama, the red pair arrived in NYC ahead of Jay-Z’s Extra Innings finale in a gifting exchange between Victor and DJ Khaled. Now, LeBron popped out in a purple colorway of the collab, complete with the same dog head logo on the heel, white laces, Swoosh, and midsole, and plush leather upper.
