LeBron makes history in UNKNWN Nike

LeBron James is officially listed as the oldest player in the NBA, and despite being 38 years old, he’s still winning awards and climbing the all-time statistical charts. During Tuesday night’s play-in game, King added another historic achievement to his incredible career – becoming the first player in league history to score more than 39,000 career points. To cement the momentous moment, James also debuted a Friends & Family version of the UNKNWN x Nike LeBron 21.

The Miami sneaker boutique that James co-owns makes his first appearance in his signature collection with the Nike LeBron 20 “Message In A Bottle,” a low-top trim that explores suede-cured ambient and washed aesthetics. In contrast, its sequel, the LeBron 21, features a rich suede construction that’s almost entirely dipped in milk chocolate tones. Reminiscent of Malik Monk’s Kobe 6 PE, the LeBron 21 enhances the upper’s enveloping tones by color-matching the sole unit and heel counter, while soft pink accents brighten the silhouette’s trim and appear on the tongue. Washed finish on tags, lace loops and spots. Midsole details.

While we await word on the Miami-based retailer’s second collaboration with James in the coming months, grab a detailed look at the F&F version of the UNKNWN x Nike LeBron 21 below.

For more on-court gear, the Kobe 6 “Reverse Grinch” is available for Shock Drop on SNKRS ahead of its release on December 15th.
