The Nike LeBron 16 'Lakers Heritage' sneaker, which was introduced in May 2019, pays homage to Los Angeles' successful championship past. This tribute is reflected in the design elements of the shoe, particularly in the BattleKnit 2.0 upper which showcases the franchise's winning years and features a leather heel shroud. To elevate LeBron James' stature, the sneaker adorns his chenille crown logo and jersey number on the tongue. Additionally, jeweled and stitched Swooshes can be seen on the counter, adding a touch of elegance. The midsole, with its speckled pattern, houses a full-length visible Zoom Air cushioning, while the rubber traction pods are strategically placed for optimal grip.
