After a short delay, the new Nike LeBron 12 hits retail tomorrow, beginning with the ‘HRT Of A Lion’ colorway.
Officially listed as University Red/Black-White-Hyper Crimson, the colors are supposed to be a callout to the “grit and determination” LeBron has shown while demonstrating “the courageous heart of a lion while being tested both physically and mentally.” Your guess is as good as mine as to where the “ea” went in “HRT” because I haven’t seen or received any clues there.
Honestly, all of that is far too complicated and probably only relevant to the 10% of the buying population that plans to sell the shoes on eBay or try to floss them on Instagram. Not every shoe needs a backstory.
I’m calling them the “home” version since Nike tends to lead each sig series release with a basic mock-up that fits The King’s current team. The Cavs-friendly colorway is presumably the one we’ll see ‘Bron lace up tomorrow when Cleveland takes the court for the first time in the new NBA season. The rest of us will have the option to cop beginning Thursday, October 30 online at Nike.com.
