Nike is bringing back its coveted LeBron 8 V2 Low “Sprite” 10 years after the original colorway was released. As a 10th-anniversary reissue, the original designs of the “Sprite” have been faithfully kept intact, except with updated materials for better performance.

Starting at the top of the shoe is a tonal motif of LeBron’s lion logo, complemented by a set of laces looped through leather eyelet panels. Bright “Volt” accents appear on the edge of the collars and the main Swoosh. The shoe’s body features breathable water-resistant overlays, with some mesh panels around the sidewalls and toebox. All of these details rest over a crisp white midsole, equipped with a neon-tinted full-length Air sole unit for optimal comfort and support.

No official release dates have been confirmed, but Nike’s LeBron 8 V2 Low “Sprite” is expected to land in the month of June on Nike’s website\ for $180 USD.
