Ben Felderstein In a Game 1 Eastern Conference Finals loss at the hands of the Boston Celtics, LeBron James wore a “Just Do It” PE version of the LeBron 15. Last night, the King stepped his footwear game up to a whole new level with a never-before-seen “SVSM” version of the same Battle Knit-equipped silhouette. While LeBron was as unstoppable as ever – amassing 42 points alongside 10 boards and 12 dimes – it wasn’t enough to get the job done as his Cavs will head back to The Land in a 2-0 hole.
Taking inspiration from the King’s first Nike Oculos Escuros Valiant PE, this LeBron 15’s upper features white at the forefoot of the offering while Irish green makes its presence known on the back half of the sneaker. Gold accents lend to a signature Saint Vincent-Saint Mary’s aesthetic on this 15’s midsole/heel, Swoosh, and metal aglets. While this distinguished Player Exclusive is not cargo to arrive at retailers, that heralded Zoom Generation PE will become available for purchase on May 26th. Enjoy a detailed look at James’ footwear from last night’s game below and be sure to check out what he laces up the rest of the series.
