Some moments in basketball turn into legend. The Nike LeBron XXIII "Masked Menace" taps into one of those unforgettable chapters from LeBron James’ career.

In 2014, LeBron took the court wearing a carbon fiber mask after breaking his nose—and delivered one of the most dominant performances of his career, setting a franchise record for points in a game that still stands today. The Masked Menace colorway channels that fearless energy with a sleek triple-black look and subtle carbon fiber details integrated into the crown-shaped containment system.

Lightweight Bounce and Locked-In Support

The LeBron XXIII is built for players who rely on speed, power and quick decision-making. A full-length ZoomX drop-in midsole provides lightweight responsiveness and explosive bounce, while a carbon fiber plate helps stabilize your foot during sudden cuts and fast transitions.

An innovative crown-shaped containment system works with the engineered jacquard upper to keep you locked in while staying light and comfortable. Whether you're attacking the paint or defending the perimeter, the design supports confident movement in every direction.

Grip That Keeps You Moving

Underfoot, a multi-directional traction pattern delivers sticky grip and smooth court feel. From quick crossovers to sharp defensive slides, the outsole helps you stay a step ahead when the pace picks up. Designed to handle sudden stops, quick cuts and explosive drives, the traction keeps you grounded so you can move confidently on both ends of the court.
