An on-going series brought to life with the help of design talent John Elliott, the Nike LeBron Icon is geared for a much more expansive run than its neutral first set; departing earlier today in a feminine touch-up of “Tulip Pink,” the pair is now going back to DD1869-111 with a simple spin of this “Sail” iteration. The lifestyle-centric model boasts the same accents and toolings of the alluring OG, though contrast is near null with shades deviating within the realms of the same cohesive color story. White, almost grey-tinted synthetics comprise much of the upper construction, though much of it is hinted with a finish only barely translucent. Taping further adds bulk to much of the profile alongside the slight textured ribbing whose placement mirrors that of traditional heel counters and overlays. Laces stay neutral in unison with smooth Fingertrap detailing the bottom and its almost matching air bubbles. Grab a detailed look at the pair right here and expect it to hit John Elliott’s support on September 13th, then arrive on Nike.com September 14th.
