After an overtime win against the New Orleans Pelicans, LeBron James and his Nike family have had one of their future projects surface via unofficial images: a LeBron 20 seemingly inspired by “Galaxy” styles from the past.
Given that King James’ latest signature model is all about “the next generation,” various takes on the Zoom Air-assisted model have emerged with mismatched color combinations that bring the past to the present. The newly-surfaced offering pairs a predominantly greyscale textile upper with handfuls of vibrant accents, from the disparate tread to the stacked profile swooshes. What likens the shoes to the outerspace theme that once graced the LeBron 9, however, is the speckled midsole: Against a black foam compound, white speckling resembles a starry night. As aforementioned, hits of bold orange, blue, green and other tones surely nod to Nike LeBron releases of the past.
Enjoy an extremely early look at the pair ahead, courtesy of Instagram account @knowing_kicks, and anticipate a Nike.com launch soon.
