The Nike LeBron 16 SB Blue made its surprise debut as part of the LeBron Watch program this weekend. Taking hints from the “Super Bron” debut of the Zoom LeBron 3, the new colorway features a rich blue upper constructed of both patent leather and suede. Red and yellow provide bold accents, while a combination of patent leather and suede on the overlays ensure that the standout superhero look loses no luster.
Sold exclusively as a LeBron Watch launch, which sold-out instantly via Nike SNKRS. The retail price tag is set at $200 USD.
