Since coming under the Nike umbrella while still in high school, LeBron James has been touted as “King” and we were told by aggressive marketing that we aren’t just watching basketball history be made; we serve witness. This new Nike LeBron 12 reminds us.
A very timely release with the NBA Finals underway, the ‘Witness’ LeBron 12 is directly inspired by the Cleveland Cavaliers team colors. The no frills or gimmicks approach paired with a strong color-blocking makes this edition standout while the t-shirt and Nike Elite socks that hook directly up to these sneakers give a nod to the Witness campaign that Nike has run thru the entire span of LeBron James’s career.
After about two dozen general release colorways, this LeBron 12 is likely to be one of the last; last of the regular releases versions anyway. Nike still has the Elite, lowtop, and non-performance EXT version to play around with until the LeBron 13 debuts.
The ‘Witness’ Nike LeBron 12 releases on Friday, June 12th for $200.
