The Air Zoom Generations featured Zoom Air in the heel and forefoot, giving you a comfortable wear each and every time you slipped them on. Another plus for the LBJ 1 they are really light weight. Even though the Nike Air Zoom Generation did not win basketball shoe of the year, (the Nike Vince Carter III won) they sure were many people’s favorites.
The first pair of Nike LBJ I were nick named the “First Games”. The color way was limited and retailed for $115, but it was hard to find a pair after the release for less than $200.
