The Nike LeBron 18 ‘Lakers Heritage’ takes inspiration from the NBA franchise’s origins in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the state colloquially known as the ‘Land of 10,000 Lakes.’ The sneaker’s color scheme reflects the early road uniforms of the Minneapolis Lakers, highlighted by a powder blue tongue and a flexible collar in University Gold. Matching yellow accents are interspersed throughout the black KnitPosite 2.0 upper. The sneaker rides on a Cushlon midsole that works in tandem with a full-length Zoom Air unit, which is partially housed within a visible Max Air unit under the heel.
