Historically, LeBron James has never hesitated on giving his family some of the spotlight on his Nike footwear. For years, he’d scribble “BBZ”, the first initials of his three children, on his sneakers; now, his public sneaker releases are wholly inspired by each of his offspring.

This upcoming LeBron 22 “Bryce’s World”, an official nickname published by a retailer, is ostensibly a thumbs up to his second born. Bryce has some legitimate potential to reach the NBA ranks, with many scouting experts putting his ceiling much higher than his older brother due to his size and skillset. Like the typical middle child, Bryce can end up having the best career of the James children.

This special edition LeBron 22 release features a mosaic of patterns colored in by Blustery, Fireberry, Ghost Green, Diffused Blue, Armory Navy, and Playful Pink. It’s taking the Multi-Color approach to the next level by looping in sketched visuals on the canvas-like upper. Finally, a pencil illustration of a crown can be seen sitting at the medial mid-foot of the shoe.

Currently, Nike Basketball partnering retailers have these listed as an April 1st, 2025 release with a $190 MSRP ($150 for Grade School). We’ll update you on our Sneaker Release Dates page with any potential changes.
