LeBron James has recently previewed the upcoming Nike LeBron 17 and now we have a detailed look at his seventeenth model.
“The silhouette was a way to reset the mark for LeBron, and futuristically explore how we could help his game with the best that Nike offers,” says designer Jason Petrie when it comes to revamping the knit upper and Air bag unit. The LeBron 17 lacks BattleKnit and instead the brand uses a new material known as Knitposite. This adds support and design along with allowing new colors and patterns.
Instead of using BattleKnit 2.0, the LeBron 17 comes constructed with a new material called Knitposite, which adds support and design flair by allowing new color patterns.
The shoe has two independent Air Zoom pods under the forefoot. Air Zoom is combined with Max Air for the ultimate hybrid cushioning. Air Zoom units in the forefoot respond to LeBron’s downhill speed from point to point.
“The lateral and medial pods under the forefoot give him that response and comfort in conjunction with the Max Air bag. The way LeBron sees it, he wants to feel confident from the ground up. He doesn’t need help jumping. He wants to feel secure on the way down,” says Petrie.
While we can expect various colorways to release, here we have the upcoming Black and White pair. Highlighted with a mixture of leather and BattleKnit throughout along with a reversed Jewel Swoosh. In addition we have a leather tongue with King James branding and a Blue icy translucent outsole.
As for some of the other details, on the right tongue it features the lion head logo from the LeBron 8, ’Six’ written in its traditional signature, Dunkman and L23 logo. The left tongue features ‘I’m King’ which is take from the LeBron 16, ACG pyramid and LJ Crown. These highlights pay tribute to his past signature models.
