James' LeBron 19 to be featured in 'Space Jam: A New Legacy'
LeBron James' latest signature sneaker will be featured on the big screen this summer.
The Nike LeBron 19 was officially unveiled Tuesday as part of the "Space Jam: A New Legacy" apparel collection. James will be shown wearing the shoe in the movie, which hits theaters July 16.
"In designing the LeBron 19, we were definitely guided by what was happening in the film," Nike Basketball footwear designer Jason Petrie said in a statement. "We wanted to give LeBron a brand-new feeling that was synonymous with an otherworldly, space-age kind of look."
The LeBron 19 was unveiled in an orange colorway that the Tune Squad uniforms inspired, and a blue-and-white version. The shoe will be available to purchase in July along with the rest of the "Space Jam: A New Legacy" collection.
