Nike LeBron VIII


On this one-of-a-kind court shoe, the traditional Swoosh is revamped, pushed toward the heel in a unique loop design to symbolize LeBron’s speed. On the tongue, a detailed lion graphic represents his ravenous, hunter-like nature, and a signature label takes inspiration from his off-court attire. To create zonal support, Nike designers put a plastic frame around the Flywire-which is made of super-strong, ultra-lightweight nylon fibers in the upper part of the shoe-for lightweight lockdown only where you need it. They also left extra space between the collar and heel, allowing more room to flex the Achilles during intense man-to-man matchups. This hoops shoe radiates style with its luxurious, supple and all-natural leather, classically crafted and molded to resemble the shell of a dress shoe. An alternating lace formation not only looks good on the court but also enhances the fit, with the top eyelet in a dual-pull design shaped like an eight. The LeBron 8 is built on a basketball-specific Max Air 360 unit, offering maximum protection and cushioning during quick cuts and jumps. A comfortable Phylon midsole works with the Max Air cushioning to help provide a softer footstrike and smoother ride to the hoop.
