“Embracing the iconic purple and gold hues of the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron's team, this iteration pays homage to his illustrious career and championship legacy. The upper features a striking combination of purple and gold accents, while the midsole and outsole sport a sleek black finish.”

They feature a purple sole, and black midsole that shows off the entire Lakers color brand. Purple laces and a purple tongue complete the design that will look great whenever James wears them on the court.
