LeBron James Gives Hilarious Name to New Nike Sneakers
In addition to being one of the best basketball players of all time, LeBron James also has built an incredible sneaker resume. For more than two decades, fans have witnessed greatness on the court and in the footwear industry.
Luckily for us, James is also very active on social media. Sometimes, the Los Angeles Lakers forward will surprise the world with his candid answers and funny dad jokes. Earlier this week, James did both on his official Instagram account.
During a home game in Los Angeles, James debuted an unreleased colorway of his signature Nike sneakers. Fans took turns guessing the name of the outrageous purple and gold hoop shoes before James settled the debate by calling it the "LeRasberry Lemonade" colorway.

Before the start of his 21st season in the NBA, Nike launched James' 21st signature sneaker. The Nike LeBron 21 officially hit shelves on September 28, 2023. Over the past two months, the shoes have been released in multiple colorways, which are available on the Nike website.
Currently, there is no confirmation that the "LeRasberry Lemonade" colorway will enjoy a general release. It could be one of the many fan-favorite sneakers that remains a player-exclusive. However, Nike has surprised loyal LeBron fans many times with unexpected sneaker releases.
The Nike LeBron 21 is sure to be another epic installment of James' signature line as its namesake continues to make history on the hardwood. Follow FanNationKicks.com for more updates on James' sneakers and all of your sneaker news from the sports world.
