On Sunday, LeBron James laced on his newest Nike signature shoe to begin his quest for an Olympic gold medal as a member of Team USA. The 39-year-old basketball player, who led Team USA to a 110-84 victory over Serbia with 21 points, represented his country on the floor by donning a red, white, and blue Nike LeBron 22. James wore a version on Sunday that was mostly blue and white with hints of red. The shoe has a number of striking elements, such as a little jewel Swoosh on the lateral side and James’ crown logo on the medial side.
