LeBron James unveiled a new Prince-inspired colorway of his Nike LeBron 15s while in Las Vegas on Thursday.

The shoes, dubbed "Purple Rain" in an apparent nod to the late musician's 1984 album, feature a floral pattern and the word "Breathe" printed along the midsole.

It's unclear whether the colorway will be made available to the public, but Nike vice president of innovation Tinker Hatfield recently indicated that the company has some exciting things in store for James's signature shoe.
