Among LeBron’s roster of signature shoes, his 17th is certainly the most transformative as it seems to arrive completely different every month. After a low-top alternate that was nearly unrecognizable, Nike is still not done with its tweaks as it ushers in the LeBron 17 “Graffiti.” The upper — though much subtler this time around — still retains the heavily researched knit constructions, adding its signature textures to the side walls of the white underlayer. Midsoles, which warp upwards far higher than that of the original, extend in black with a strong graphic treatment as graffiti defaces from wall to wall. At the ankle, the model then aims for utility as it transplants a the LeBron 4’s strap replete with its complementing red outlines, swoosh placements, and branded buckles. Grab an official look at these here and expect a release to arrive at Nike.com hopefully within the coming months.
