Nike's collaborations with Historically Black Colleges and Universities have produced some of the most coveted releases in recent years. Aside from their collection of Dunks as a part of their Yard Runners series, FAMU has become a favorite for The Swoosh. More specifically, LeBron James’ line under the Nike. Previously, LeBron James had worked with the HBCU on a “Green” and “Black” colorway of the LeBron 7 and a series of LeBron 20 PEs. Now, FAMU and The Whitaker Group-owned retailer APB are taking over a two-pack of Nike LeBron 20s, hitting shelves soon.

Within this two-pack of LeBron 20s are "Safety Orange" and "Coconut Milk" colorways featuring FAMU’s color scheme throughout the design. Both pairs feature an all-leather upper with mesh panels on the tongue, the orange-based pair coming with pebbled leather, and the neutral-based colorway getting faux snakeskin. The colorway's titular shade covers most of the upper, while FAMU's colors land on the Swoosh logos. Snakeskin-like embroidery is present on the topmost lateral Swoosh, while debossed text on the tongue nods to the school. A contrasting foam midsole in a two-tone finish is paired with a monochromatic rubber outsole for both sneakers in the pack. Each pair is housed in custom packaging featuring APB, FAMU, and Nike branding.

The FAMU x APB x Nike LeBron 20 Pack released on May 28 through APB via online and in-store raffles. A online launch occurred on June 2 through the APB website. Following this, Nike SNKRS will release both colorways on June 16. The retail price is set at $200, and they will be available exclusively in men's sizing.
