Dressed in all black is the trend these days, and Nike is employing a similar look for the release of the LeBron 8. Mixed with leather, suede, and Flywire, the black gives the materials a chance to be the focus of the shoe. While monotone is the theme, the Nike Swoosh, the outsole, the lion, and the 360 Air Unit, all get a chance to present the black to you in their own unique way. Look for these to drop at Foot Locker on Saturday, December 11.

The blacked out colorway is a staple, making an appearance in LeBron’s previous line. The single color puts the focus on texturing and different materials: the leather upper mixed with Flywire supports and a mesh heel. Even the laces and eyelits are black. The midsole gives way to a 360 Max Air bag, designed specifically for basketball. More shots in the Gallery.
