Despite $1 Billion Deal Himself, LeBron James Rocking Michael Jordan’s Collection Will Surprise Fans

The world of basketball has seen many big names over the years but the Los Angeles Lakers icon LeBron James holds a special place in NBA folklore. On the back of his huge popularity among fans, James signed a lifetime contract worth $1 billion with Nike in 2015. In fact, the four-time champion has his own shoe line based on his affiliation with Nike. However, despite having his own signature shoes, LeBron was seen rocking the signature shoes of probably the biggest NBA name ever besides him, Michael Jordan.

MJ’s shoe brand ‘Air Jordan’ completely revolutionized the sneaker industry and turned Nike into a multi-billion dollar brand. Therefore, it seems it’s quite difficult for people to resist the temptation to wear the iconic Jordan sneakers, even if they have their own shoe line.

LeBron James wore Michael Jordan shoes in a recent interview

James sat down with Coach K aka Mike Krzyzewski for a chat lately. The 19x All-Star appeared in the interview wearing a beautiful hoodie paired with cargo pants. On top of that, he rocked a pink cap. However, the most catching eye-catching accessory was on his feet, a pair of Jordan 1s. King James rocked the Air Jordan 1 High OG Chicago (aka ‘Lost & Found’). A sneaker-related fan page posted a beautiful photo of James wearing the shoes while candidly speaking with Krzyzewski lately.

The Air Jordan 1 High OG Lost & Found was released for a price of $180 back in 2022. It was highly inspired by the high-op Air Jordan 1 original colorway, released back in 1985. The AJ1 was a throwback to that era.

The main focus of AJ1’s design team was to give a vintage look to the pair of shoes. Therefore, everything in the shoe emanated an essence and a signature look from the 80s.

LeBron James’ sons wore Jordans to witness their father’s historic night

It seems like not only the Lakers icon wears Jordans. Bronny James and Bryce James are seemingly also fans of the iconic sneakers. Both of them appeared in the Crypto.com Arena wearing Jordan 4s on Feb 7 to witness their father becoming the all-time leading scorer in NBA history. It was a bit surprising for many fans that they rocked Jordan 4s instead of their father’s latest signature shoes on that historic day.
