About to embark on his 20th NBA season, LeBron James is already hitting the hardwood in preparation for his fifth Championship campaign. Running concurrently to that milestone is his 20th signature Nike sneaker, the Nike LeBron 20 — or LeBron XX — which has been spotted several times over the course of the off-season, including practices, summer leagues, and on the feet of young Bronny and Bryce. But now it has been revealed up-close for the very first time, with product shots of the Nike LeBron 20 “Violet Frost” appearing ahead of an accidental release earlier this week.
Hitting retailers Finish Line early — likely by mistake — the official images of the pair quickly surfaced before being revoked by the brand. Here, it shows the intricate detailings of the shoe, including the engineered mesh uppers and tongues, high-padded liners, and special traction pads underfoot. There’s a slew of extra detailing like premium leather panels, double-layered Swooshes, and “XX” dubraes at the forefoot — all of which are delivered in hues of lilac, purple, orange, and gold.
See for yourself here below, and look to learn more about this Nike LeBron 20 “Violet Frost” and its expected release on October 22. If you can’t wait out the release, then you can pick up pairs early from GOAT and Flight Club.
