While the upper looks mostly white at first glance, you'll quickly notice something more. A subtle iridescence dances across the surface, catching the light with every movement. The Knitposite overlays, LeBron's signature technology, boast a woven texture that mimics the delicate patterns of coral formations.
The typical lateral side panel Swoosh is mostly this same pearlescent white, though there is one black line outlining the bottom half to make the design pop. On the medial side, it's all black with faint turquoise striping, perhaps to mimic the pattern of a tropical fish.
The dynamic lacing system, featuring black laces over a black tongue, is slightly reminiscent of intertwined seaweed and provides a personalized fit and lockdown. Also on the tongue is King James' signature in white.
The full-length Zoom Air unit isn't visible through the black midsole, but it promises explosive cushioning and responsiveness. Under it is a white rubber outsole guaranteed to give you the traction you need—even in slippery situations.
Further heel branding kicks things up a notch. Squiggly turquoise lines wiggle around a turquoise XXI emblem. All of this sits on a black overlay.
With top-notch basketball shoes like these, you'll want to pair them with equally top-notch gear. We're thinking branded black crew socks, a pair of performance shorts and your favorite lightweight jersey should do the trick.
Shine bright like a seashell when you choose the LeBron 21 "Conchiolin." And you won't even have to go under the sea to get it. Grab it from your local Hibbett | City Gear on January 1 in men's and grade school kids' sizes.
