Nike Honors Lebron James' Game with Piece for Art of a Champion Capsule
Nike Basketball brings life back to the Zoom LeBron Soldier 1 sneaker silhouettes as a part of its Art of a Champion collection. The sneakers will mark the revival for the first time ever since the piece had been retro'ed. The celebratory launch commemorates LeBron James' unforgettable performance in the fifth game of the 2017 Eastern Conference Finals. The Cleveland Cavaliers were playing against the Detroit Pistons at the time and James scored 29 points with 25 of them straight.
The return of the silhouette boasts the same midnight navy blue and white colorway across the uppers, with detailing accents finished in gold. The athlete-honoring sneakers will be returning next month on may 31, and will be available at select Nike Basketball retail locations and on the Nike SNKRS app.
