Celebrate LeBron’s second MVP victory with the special edition LeBron 7 MVP Air Max shoes
When LeBron James was declared the 2010 NBA MVP, he became a founding member of an exclusive club of players who have won the honor in consecutive seasons. The list includes legends like Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Michael Jordan. To commemorate the occasion, Nike created a special edition LeBron 7 MVP for him to wear when he received the award from him. The shoe is a slightly redesigned version of the Air Max LeBron VII, which is currently available in a wide variety of colorways and editions.
The Air Max LeBron 7 MVP edition shoe features a White colorway with Wolf Gray fleece used on the Flywire side panels and a chenille swoosh logo. The sneaker is accented in crimson and gold, and the familiar lion logo on the mid-heel section is replaced with an MVP varsity logo. Other notable features include the words “witness” and “story” in gold embroidery on the shoe’s white collar, an L and J insignia on the heel, and a signature “LBJ 23” plus swoosh on the tongue. Inside the insole you can find a label that certifies that the shoe has been “designed and manufactured to LeBron’s exact specifications.” While there has been no official release information yet, images have surfaced of the special packaging the shoe will come in, which is a special edition gold Nike box adorned with LeBron’s signature and the Nike swoosh in red.
Nike is also releasing a special MVP edition of the LeBron VII Low shoe, which features a white colorway. The front of the toe box features laser etched MVP and 08-09 and 09-10 trophy logos, as well as an MVP logo x 2 on the lateral side panels. The tongue features an embossed LBJ signature and silver Nike Swoosh. Although there are no official release details yet, these shoes are expected to be an ultra-limited release that may not be available in retail stores.
