To kick off the 2020 NBA Western Conference Finals, the Swoosh quietly dropped the Nike LeBron 18 “Reflections” — LeBron James’ latest signature basketball sneaker. While the style evokes a minimalist take of its predecessor, the reflection aesthetic is expressed through slightly altered colors on the left and right shoe, with variations on the sole, logos, heel tab and laces.
The model dons lightweight Knitposite 2.0 uppers in black followed by durable molded heel clips, a new Air system in the tongue and a full-length Air Zoom unit combined with a Max AIR unit in the heel. Additionally, iconography representing LeBon James’ 17 seasons to date creates unique collages that appear as graphics on the heel, tongue and sockliner.
