The Nike LeBron 16 King is inspired by the African meaning of LeBron James’ name and his first ever poster. The colorway is also a tribute to his legacy and dominance on the court. A bold red battleknit upper with highlighting leopard print detailing is seen on the heels which pays tribute to the classic Air Zoom Generation ad campaign during LeBron James’ early career. Also, the insoles feature the same image, while metallic gold accents for the Swooshes, tongue and heel tab, followed by a white rubber sole to top it all off.
