LeBron and Nike have crafted 21 different mainline Nike LeBron sneakers over the last two decades, and NCAA programs affiliated with Nike often get their exclusive iterations of these sneakers. Outside of FAMU, the first LeBron-sponsored NCAA program, James has a connection to USC thanks to his son Bronny attending the university. Following a look at Bronny James' LeBron NXXT Gen PE themed after USC's color scheme, the school has just shared images of their own LeBron 21 PEs.
The USC-themed LeBron 21 PEs come in two distinct colorways, embodying the school's iconic color scheme. The first pair features a dominant red base complemented by golden accents, mirroring USC's vibrant spirit and athletic prowess. The second pair opts for a cleaner look with a white base, accented by red details on the tongue and sockliner, offering a more subdued yet equally striking alternative.
The sneakers maintain the LeBron 21's innovative design, with a protective leather shell enveloping a 360-degree cable system, ensuring both style and performance on and off the court. USC's logo sits on the tongue of the left shoe, while the right features LeBron’s signature. The sneakers feature a white midsole sprinkled with gold and red, leading to a semi-translucent icy blue outsole, blending aesthetics with functionality.
Although these Nike LeBron 21 USC PEs are not available for public purchase, their unveiling underscores the relationship between LeBron James, Nike, and USC. Download the Sole Retriever mobile app for updates on the Nike LeBron line and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
