When considering the exclusive group of footwear designers that have truly shaped the entire industry and culture surrounding the craze for sneakers, Jason Petrie certainly belongs. As the lead designer behind LeBron James’ Nike footwear since the Air Max LeBron VII in 2009, Petrie has gone on to produce some earth-shattering basketball footwear that, for a stretch of time, were the most coveted on the planet on the lifestyle front.

The LeBron 15 certainly extends that streak with a package that boasts a new Zoom/Max combo Air unit and a Flyknit upper engineered specifically for LeBron’s game.

Nike News just released an in-depth interview with the designer, revealing the full design process, working with one of the most powerful pro-athletes in the world, and the rich stories behind the debut colorways. Read up and stay tuned for our own interview with Petrie coming soon.
