Nike Adds a Hard Hat Colorway of the LeBron 19 Sneakers
LeBron James and Nike add a new tonal iteration to the LeBron 19 sneaker model for the season with the stark hard hat colorway to join the roster. The silhouette is doused in a bright yellow all throughout the entire silhouette with a canary-yellow making up the entire base foundation of the shoe.
This includes the upper, the midsole, the eyelets, and the branding seen on a plastic panel. The base is then met with some contrast with the addition of black seen by the LeBron James branding and the stripe Swoosh on the lateral side of the ankle. To keep going with the construction theme, there is a printed graphic of an excavator by the heel.
