After some flashy colourways such as the “Reflection” and “Empire Jade”, the LeBron 18 has toned down with a clean Lakers inspired colourway. The upper consists of black Battleknit 2.0 with purple accents on the stitching. While other colourways featured colourful prints on the tongue’s air bubble, the “Lakers” colourway uses dark purple making the prints discrete. The heel also features a single purple tone making the overall colourway clean and simple. The Nike Swoosh logo is decorated in gold to represent Lakers purple and gold. The obvious Lakers inspired detail is hidden in the insole as Lebron’s name is written in a Lakers logo style font.
The “Lakers” colourway is set to release on the 23rd of October for $200.
