Nike is following its earlier iteration of the LeBron 16 “Four Horsemen” with a bright new colorway — the LeBron 16 “Heritage.”

The latest LeBron 16 “Heritage” is graced with pops of multi-colored panels in pastels of yellow, purple and light blue. The upper sees a yellow mesh tongue accented with branding at the top and the numbers “2” and “3” woven over each respective foot. The body is lined with purple BattleKnit 2.0 Flyknit, designed for its breathability and lightness. A mini-Swoosh appears over the blue heel that denotes 16 Championship years the LA Lakers holds in the NBA. The midsole comes speckled with a tri-pod bubble sole unit, combining Max Air and Zoom Air cushioning technology that uses the absorbs shock from hard landings and channels out explosive bounce-back. Other details like the ripstop heel pull and herringbone-patterned grey outsole round up the sneaker.

The Nike LeBron 16 “Heritage” will be available at 10 a.m. EST, May 31 at Nike’s website for $200 USD.
