Originally released when LeBron James joined the Miami Heat, the LeBron 8 'Lakers' updates its look with the colors of his third NBA team. Built with leather and Flywire-infused TPU, the shoe's upper features a Court Purple base overlaid by University Gold on the Swoosh, collar and eyestay. A heel pull-loop provides easy on and off, while underfoot, the contrasting white midsole incorporates a basketball-specific 360-degree Max Air unit to provide cushioning.
