The Nike LeBron 17 EP ‘Lakers’ features a color scheme inspired by the NBA franchise that signed LeBron James in 2018. The Knitposite upper combines a black knit base with durable heat-molded yarns rendered in the Lakers’ purple and gold. Dual cushioning technologies distinguish the midsole, highlighted by a Max Air heel bag with responsive Zoom Air units. Underfoot, a contrasting white finish is applied to the extra-durable rubber outsole.
