atmos' Nike LeBron 18 Low "Sakura" Nods to Japan's Cherry Blossom Season
Geometric patterns and floral embroidered Swooshes add some Spring flair to the hoops-ready model.
atmos and Nike have linked together for a brand new footwear collection that entails two colorways of the LeBron 18 Low. Alongside the “Viotech” offering is this freshly revealed “Sakura” makeup that pulls heavy influence from Japan’s scenic cherry blossom seasons.
The Japanese retailer didn’t hold back when piecing together these hardwood-ready kicks, and perhaps its most playful feature is the Swooshes which have been reimagined with all-over pink floral embroidery. Beneath its hyaline mid-foot and forefoot layer, you’ll find a barrage of geometric shapes, all of which contrast between various shades of blue, pink and a muted jade green. Overlays that are attached to the throat along with the canvas heel sections are both treated with ivory exteriors. Furthermore, baby blue accents are lent to the The King’s crown logos on the heels while more pink shows up along the eye stays and laces.
Moving down under, the midsoles split between icy blue molds towards the front while the heel piece is given a faint pink finish. The latter also sits above a see through Air bubble which houses a jade green cushioning unit.
atmos Tokyo has these available right now for ¥17,500 (approx. $162 USD).
