A Sneaker for a Historic Season
The Nike LeBron 23 “Bubble Boy” features a unique colorway inspired by the bubble environment that was so different from any other NBA season. The Cool Grey, Metallic Silver and Vivid Purple design reflects both the isolation of the bubble and the celebratory nature of the Lakers' victory.
