Although LeBron James‘s social media antics have grown in both frequency and volume in the past few years, his offseason are still centered around honing his world-class skill set, and each offseason Nike releases a new Soldier to aid the King in his never-ending quest for perfection. This year, the model is the Nike LeBron Soldier 13, and the newest colorway to appear is this simple-yet-striking black and chrome makeup. Forgoing laces entirely in favor of two flight-inspired straps, the Soldier 13 is all about lockdown, and the straps are aided in this pursuit by a high-cut synthetic upper with a flexible color, all of which are dressed in black and accented with pops of white. The heel piece is slightly reminiscent of the LeBron 16 thanks to its sharp edges, and it’s also equipped with a duo of chromed-out Swooshes for branded flair. Down below, the midsole offers Zoom Air cushioning and a yin/yang white/black mix, while a herringbone traction pattern on the white/icy blue translucent outsole completes the look. These new Soldiers are available now at Nike.com for $140 USD, so enjoy a full set of official images below and pick up a pair for all your summertime hooping and training needs.
