Workboot aesthetics come to the basketball court on LBJ’s latest, Nike Sportswear’s interpretation of the King’s current signature style: the Nike LeBron 12 EXT Wheat.
The acclaimed LeBron 12 silhouette is front-row-center, of course, but the usual cutting-edge performance materials are foregone in favor of traditional fashion styling. Leather comprises the base of the upper, overlaid by suede-flocked Hyperposite piecing at the midfoot and heel for an entirely different effect than the norm. All of that manifests in a monochromatic tan palette, meanwhile, excepting the occasional metallic gold accent, evoking so many Timberland workboots.
Keep it locked to NB for a concrete release date as soon as we have it. In the meantime, check out a detailed look at the Nike LeBron 12 EXT Wheat below.
