First unveiled during the 2019-20 media day, this LEBRON VII Media Day arrives in a purple and gold colorway and is rooted in unmistakable team heritage through alternating colors on the left and right shoe.
What not everybody knows is the fact LeBron James had both pairs at his disposal on Media Day. It was not planned for him to go out in a mismatched manner. Once he did Nike had to make a huge decision on how to handle the launch. Ideally they could go with a mismatched set like they did with the Equality XVI, but there was just not enough time to pull that off. By default the purple pair was selected to drop. In the end we’re getting them just the way he wore them that day. I think it was the right call. What’s your take?
The LEBRON VII Media Day releases May 16 on nike.com and SNKRS.
