Nike is no stranger to releasing themed colorways across their wide range of silhouettes. Whether that’s something from pop culture or a holiday, you name it, Nike has probably done it. While they continue to raise the bar each time, holiday-themed Nikes have become an unofficial tradition. For LeBron James and his signature footwear line, this has been a continued story.
As the warmer weather hits and flowers begin to bloom, people worldwide get ready to celebrate Easter. This year, Nike has decided to give the LeBron 19 a pastel makeover in honor of the holiday. But there’s one catch, this colorway is exclusive to kids. There is a silver lining though, as adults we usually don’t partake in some of the Easter activities such as egg hunting and dying, we leave that to the little ones now. So, it’s no surprise that Nike would lace up the kids for Easter as they will be the most active.
Coming in aura, citron tint, worn blue, and psychic purple, the Nike LeBron 19 “Easter” sports soft tones throughout, highlighted by bold purple detailing. The transparent white-based upper is accented by psychic purple and worn blue. Pale yellow covers the inner lining as well as the “Nike Air” branding on the back, Swoosh on the ankle, and the LeBron logo on the tongue. All of this is finished off by a dark blue visible 360 Max Air cushioned unit in the heel, and a solid citron tint colored rubber outsole.
The Nike LeBron 19 Easter GS is set to release on May 20th, 2022. It will drop at Nike as well as select retailers worldwide, in-store and online. Coming in kid’s sizes from GS to toddler, retail is set at $165 for gradeschool. Keep it locked to our Twitter andMobile App to stay up to date on future releases.
