The Nike 'Little Posite' will be released in a 'Lava' colorway that appears to almost crack through from under the surface of the shoe. The black sneakers also have a bright 'Total Crimson' interior to go alongside a cracked lava design featured throughout the upper of the shoe. Additional orange coloring is also incorporated on the sole of the sneakers as well.

These lightweight basketball sneakers are set to be released this November, and will definitely make for a stylish and exclusive fashion item for those wanting their offspring at the height of style.
