LBJ has surely lit up the shoe business.

A shoe that meets many demands

Many hoopers have commented about the potential comfort level that LeBron 21s can provide. Now, 38, the Forward must be thinking of shoes that are able to absorb hard impact and make the ankles and the feet more secure. With a mono-mesh top aided by 360° zonal cables, the shoes also have perforations that allow for adequate ventilation for the feet. These characteristics, combined with the affordable price range and distinct colors, can elevate LBJ’s shoe market to another level.
