Designed to enhance performance and provide optimal support, the Nike LeBron Soldier 11 draws inspiration from military equipment. Released in May 2017, the 'College Navy' edition features a breathable mesh and foam bootie that envelops the foot, which is then secured with a four-strap closure system reminiscent of army boots. The athletic appearance is further enhanced by metallic gold branding details. For responsive and comfortable landing, the shoe incorporates a Zoom Air heel unit and a speckled foam midsole. The icy tread pattern on the outsole ensures excellent traction.
