Jovani Hernandez First unveiled on September 18th, before LeBron James played a single game in the 2019-20 NBA Playoffs, the Nike LeBron 18 “Los Angeles By Day” arrives to North America on November 6th.
As its moniker suggests, the pair is inspired by the city for which the kid from Akron helped secure another NBA title. A sand-hued knit upper takes over much of the model’s mid and forefoot, and is reminiscent of the City of Angels’ 72 and sunny shoreline. The visible Air units on the tongue contrast their off-white surroundings with shades of pink, yellow and blue, all of which appear on the LA-themed graphic beneath the the translucent heel clip. Designed with power and stability in mind, the LeBron 18‘s rear construction features a textile collar reinforced by a protruding plastic mold, the former boasting palm tree and sailboat motifs. Vibrant-colored accents on the heel pull tab and throughout the sole unit further contribute to the liveliness of the Lakers franchise’s hometown, especially at daytime.
