Nike LeBron 18 “Animal” Arriving in March

Select Model

While Nike Hoops is busy using recycled materials for their All-Star releases, King James is out here recycling colorways for his 18th signature sneaker — this one repurposing the famed “Animal Pack” finish made famous by Japan’s atmos.

More of a Sarafi-inspired finish, the pair boasts light tan woven uppers with perforations that result in a finish akin to the skin of cheetahs. Sail sole units feed into the theme, while wild zebra prints on the Air bag leave no mistake as to the pair’s inspiration. Colorful African-inspired prints hit the pair’s inner booties, while sky blues tonight and golden-yellow laces arrive to complete the design.

Though a release date for this Nike LeBron 18 “Animal” was not revealed, the surfacing of its official imagery would suggest that a release isn’t too far away. Until more news arrives, you can enjoy a detailed look at the pair here below, and be sure to keep your eyes locked on our official Twitter account for further updates.
