Nike introduces a new tonal iteration of the LeBron 20 sneaker model in the All-Star Edition which is led by blue lightning. This is then contrasted by tones of coconut milk and iron grey. The aforementioned tone is a sky blue knitted look throughout the upper and the lateral side of the shoe features two Swoosh logos overlapping one another -- one of which is done in white and the other is in grey.
The lace dubraes have 'XX' which can also be seen detailing the insole as branding as well. Rounding out the shoe includes the forefoot midsole base that has detailed graphics as well as the heel that features embossing that reads “The Records of King James” and “Legacy Preserved.”
