To mark LeBron James’ 22nd season, Nike Basketball is launching the new LeBron 22. LeBron James is set to wear the model while playing for the LA Lakers alongside his son, Bronny James. The model is available in stores starting November 2024.
The new LeBron 22 is designed to elevate his game while inspiring the next generation of players, who, like their icon, thrive under pressure instead of avoiding it. This new pair of basketball shoes helps athletes of all ages stay grounded and move freely while maintaining control.
The LeBron XXII introduces a new construction that delivers a natural sense of control and stability, allowing the next generation to lock in, take off and push past their limits with confidence. The shoe uses full-length Cushlon 2.0 foam in the midsole for enhanced comfort with every step, while Zoom technology in the heel provides powerful propulsion and soft landings.
The LeBron 22 blends performance with luxury, using premium materials, a high-performance build and refined details designed to meet the demands of any stage, from the hardwood to Hollywood. LeBron’s personal style is evident throughout the shoe, from the bold colorways inspired by his influence on design to his signature embedded in the heel, giving the sneaker a distinct, personal touch.
When is the Nike LeBron 22 releasing?
The new Nike LeBron 22 will be available on Nike.com and at select Nike Basketball partner retailers starting November 1, 2024. The model will be available in both men's and kids' sizes. The kids' version removes the Zoom technology and also changes the shape of the sole, providing a feel that is better suited for children.
The launch of LeBron James’ latest signature model is scheduled to coincide with the announcement of his first training shoe, the Nike LeBron TR1, a lifestyle silhouette aimed at sports enthusiasts.
