While the term “fast food” and LeBron James are not often in the same sentence, the prolific athlete is referencing the guilty pleasures of burgers, fries and pizza in its latest Nike LeBron 19 model.
The Nike LeBron 19 “Fast Food” features a translucent mesh upper that shows off the underlying cartoonish and colorful graphic of pretzels, fries, pizzas and burgers. The sole of the shoe has the signature Air Max cushioning to round out the silhouette. Keeping it simple with the colorway, the shoe features orange details on the laces and bottom of the sole. LeBron James’ “King James” logo is also highlighted in orange. The fast-food graphics peak through at the tongue of the shoe, perhaps a nod to the time when James, Chris Bosh and other members of the Team U.S.A basketball were seen eating burgers and fries at a gas station in 2008.
