Nike's ongoing "Champions Think 16" collection will focus in on a classic LeBron James sneaker this week, as the "25 Straight" Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier 1 is set to return to retailers.
The commemorative sneakers are built on a white, tumbled leather upper accompanied by hits of navy throughout and gold detailing, including the Larry O'Brien trophy hangtag. Select Nike retailers and Nike.com will launch the Nike Zoom LeBron Soldier 1 "25 Straight" ahead of Game 1 on Thursday, May 31st for the retail price of $150.
The special edition kicks pay tribute to LeBron's performance against the Detroit Pistons in the 2007 Eastern Conference Finals. In that memorable double-overtime game, in which LeBron laced up the Zoom Soldier 1, he recorded 25 straight points on the road to lift Cleveland to a 109-107 victory. The Cavs would go on to finish off the Pistons in Game 6, marking LeBron's first trip to the NBA Finals.
Other sneakers still to come from Nike's "Champions Think 16" collection include Michael Jordan's iconic "Last Shot" Air Jordan XIV and a "Gold Standard" Nike Air Force 270.
