Nike Air Max Lebron Paris Artists Series
I purposely haven't blogged about the Nike Air Max Lebron VII's because I was waiting until it got a little closer to the release date and until the exclusive colorway came to New York. But the Parisian artist series are just too good.
Nike and Basketball star LeBron James has just received three one-of-a-kind customized versions of his latest signature shoe as a gift from local Paris artists “Nyno” and “The Mayor”. Each limited-edition style includes an image from the Lionsgate film, “More Than a Game”, which traces James’ journey through adolescence both on and off the court with his team mates from SVSM (his high-school team) and is currently touring. In each of the ten cities the tour will visit, Nike will make 123 pairs of the Air Max LeBron VII shoe available at retail.
The artists for these three 1of1 editions were inspired not only by Parisian neighbourhoods, (the city streets, lights and colours) but also by LeBron himself: His theatrical way of playing is represented by the red, with black symbolizing his elegance and green paying homage to his youth.
The Paris edition available to the public represents “Passion” and has an image of SVSM players with bowed heads, in their team colours (white with a green trim) and are available at the Nike Store Les Halles and the House of Hoops rue Pierre Lescot, whilst More Than a Game will be released in the first half of October.
