Released in December 2009, the Nike Air Max LeBron 7 ‘Xmas’ boasts an eye-catching gradient black and red colorway. Despite its festive timing, the design intriguingly avoids explicit references to the winter holiday. However, a closer look at the graphic insoles unveils a touching narrative: a vintage black-and-white family picture featuring a youthful LeBron James and his cherished Christmas present, a miniature basketball hoop. This hidden detail adds a layer of sentimentality and personal significance to an otherwise understated and stylish sneaker.
