One of these is the Nike LeBron 21 “Purple Rain,” which is a great name for the shoe. The athlete first hinted at it in August. The name of the pair comes from the royal and famous late Prince, who LeBron is said to have loved a lot. “Violet Dust” is used all over the matte leather construction, which goes well with the hits of “Purple Cosmos” that are used to accent the bottom and hardware. Then, “Melon Tint” is put on the stitched logo and the fine details along the heel. The tribute is even stronger thanks to the patch on the heels, which shows the artist’s hands with his signature rings on them.
