Diamond-Cut Sneakers (UPDATE)

The Nike Lebron X NSW Lifestyle Shoes Offer Flexible Court Options

Fans of sports apparel brand Nike and famous basketball player Lebron James were rejoicing only a year ago when James released his LeBron X NSW Cork sneakers, but now those who were a little daunted by the rigid exterior of James' shoes will be happy to see that Nike has just released these more flexible, diamond-inspired Nike Lebron X NSW Lifestyle sneakers.

As suggested by their title, the Nike Lebron X NSW Lifestyle shoes are all about comfort and style rather than on the court support and these kicks naturally have a more laid-back look that resembles Nike’s fan favorite, blazer-styled shoes.

Available in hazelnut brown and night stadium black, these swaggy kicks also feature diamond-shaped designs made from mesh that provide serious foot breathing comfort while also managing to look sharp, too.
