Nike's partnership with LeBron James has taken another exciting turn, with the Nike LeBron line embracing NCAA programs. Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) was the first to join the LeBron family, and since becoming partners, the school has received a series of exclusive sneakers. Following up on the NXXT Gen is a Nike LeBron 21 FAMU PE designed for FAMU's basketball team.
This iteration of the LeBron 21 features a premium tumbled suede upper, elevating the traditional basketball shoe aesthetic. The design brilliantly incorporates FAMU's iconic green, orange, and white color scheme. Predominantly covered in green, vibrant orange accents can be found on the sockliner, heel tab, and the rear part of the sole unit. The sneaker maintains LeBron's signature branding on the right foot, while the left shoe proudly displays FAMU's rattlesnake mascot, symbolizing the school's spirit and tenacity. The shoe's midsole echoes the university's colors in green and orange, contrasted against a crisp white rubber outsole, ensuring both style and functionality on the court.
Though the Nike LeBron 21 FAMU PE is not slated for a public release, its creation marks a significant moment in the ongoing partnership between Nike, LeBron James, and FAMU. Check below for detailed images of the exclusive sneaker. For the latest updates on Nike LeBron releases and more sneaker news, stay connected with the Sole Retriever mobile app.
