The LeBron x John Elliott Icon brings the clean and layered approach of a lifestyle shoe to a hardwood classic. Cushioning from the LeBron 8 combines with court-inspired details and translucent materials as a tribute to Elliott's favorite shoe in the series. The result: power, unleashed. Legend of the 8 Just like the classic LeBron 8, this shoe’s full-length Max Air unit combines with a foam midsole for comfortable cushioning with every step. Between the Lines A translucent upper features layers of synthetics and leather for a secure feel. Embroidered details nod to the lines seen on a basketball court. Inspired By Hoops When tasked with creating a new lifestyle shoe inspired by LeBron, designer John Elliott began with the idea of LeBron walking into a game. He wanted to be sure LeBron had on a shoe that made him feel at his best when coming through the tunnel and onto the hardwood. The result is something Elliott likens to water coming through a spillway – the unleashing of power similar to what LeBron brings to the court.
