by

The Nike Lebron 19 was one of the most significant sneakers of 2022. With Lebron James having a big year himself, Nike saw the opportunity to commemorate the many highlights of The King’s career. From Lebron’s Space Jam reboot to holiday-themed set pieces, the Nike Lebron 19 had many inspired colorways. With 19 different looks, fans of the Lebron 19 had plenty of options. Here are the best colorways of the Nike Lebron 19!

“Christmas”

These sneakers put fans back in the holiday spirit with their late January release of this colorway. The black midsole speckled with white feels like a starry night sky. The bright red Nike Swoosh on the ankle of the sneaker is reminiscent of Christmas tree lights. The sneaker’s polarized blue and neon green accents add to its festive appeal even more. On and off the court, holiday day season or not, this colorway of the Nike Lebron 19 is a hot choice! 

“Chosen 1”

The “Chosen 1” is a desirable colorway with hidden meanings. The shoe sports a wipe-away layer, which reveals colorful graphics underneath. The graphics detail and represent different elements of the life and career of Lebron James. The same graphics are on the insoles of the sneaker as well. The metallic gold finish on the midsoles pops with the rest of the sneaker, giving it a distinct look. These limited edition kicks were made to be worn by James during the 2022 NBA All-Star Game. 

“Tune Squad”

Millennials could let their inner child live with the release of the Space Jam sequel starring Lebron James. While the Air Jordan 11s from the original Space Jam are iconic, the Nike Lebron 19 got its own “Space Jam” treatment. The bright yellow mesh upper with red and translucent overlays is a similar palette to the uniforms worn by the characters. The turquoise midsole and trademark Swoosh bring the colorful sneaker to a complete look to commemorate the film’s release. This set is a definite must-have for fans!

“Fast Food”

The “Fast Food” is the second variation of the Nike Lebron 19 to be released, and it truly made the fans’ mouths water. This colorway gets its name from the junk food graphics plastered on the tongue and inner bootie of the sneaker. Food seen in the graphics includes pizza slices, hamburgers, fries, and more. The blue makeup with contrasting red accents gives the colorway an eye-catching appeal to go along with the novelty. This colorway of the Nike Lebron 19 catches the eyes with the tone and graphics but rounds out subtly with the Air Max cushioning, allowing for a cool, clean look. 

“Bred”

The two-tone colorway of the Nike Lebron 19 “Bred” is reminiscent of other colorways of iconic Nike releases. The bold crimson red finish along the bottom outsoles, Nike Swoosh, and eyelets pop against the metallic black base. The hybrid cushioning setup, designed by Jason Petrie, ensures the sneaker provides as much comfort as it does style. The crown branding on the side of the sneaker and the accented tongue logo give the Nike Lebron 19 “Bred” extra swag points. 

“Floral”

This Nike Lebron 19 Low version comes Spring ready, boasting floral aesthetics and bright accents. The mint green and pink pastel accent gives the shoe a fun and vibrant tone to match its theme. React Foam midsoles replace the traditional Max Air cushioning, giving this colorway a distinct look. These shoes were first seen on the feet of Lebron during the 2022 All-Star practice in Cleveland. 

“Valentine’s Day”

Nothing says “I love you!” to your fans like a hot new release. Nike decided to be sweet with this colorway’s near Valentine’s Day release. The combination of fuchsia, pink, and mint green gives a vibrant pop to the sneaker. The Foam pods lining the collar add more ankle support and offer a distinctive trait from other colorways. The purple and pink laces bring all the colors together nicely. The look of the multicolored Cupid Day-themed sneaker is brought together by the pale mint green around the toe and midsoles.

“Sketch”

This variation of the Nike Lebron 19 is a nod to past designs of Lebron’s signature shoe line. The all-white base pairs with the red and black detailing on the tongue and behind the white mesh foundation. The detailing on the sneakers comes from sketches made by designers who have created Nike Lebron sneakers in the past, including Tinker Hatfield, Aaron Cooper, and more. The design’s forefoot features a Zoom Air unit with dual-chambered Max Air under the heel atop a rubber outsole. The contrasting accents through the sneaker and tongue give this colorway a tight and clean design. 

“King’s Crown”

Named after the “King’s Crown” logo on the heels of the shoe, this colorway of the Nike Lebron 19 makes a statement! The bright siren red base of the synthetic textile upper with molded overlays makes the sneaker pop out. The laser blue accents throughout the shoe make an excellent color-blocking scheme. A forefoot Zoom Air unit with dual-chambered Max Air under the heel completes the sneaker’s look.

“Hawaii”

Another bright and colorful offering for the sneaker, this shoe brought a tropical feel to the court. The violet base of the back heel with floral prints representing the islands is one of the main highlights of the “Hawaii.” The calming pink color scheme on the mesh and leather ensemble completes the sneaker’s tropical feel. The volt accents on the Swoosh and tongue hits against the pink hues of the sneaker. One of many vibrant colorways to bless this silhouette, the “Hawaii” definitely takes fans to paradise! 

“Lebronivale”

This colorful, carnival-themed set came right on time for the summer months with its June 2022 release. On the insole of the sneaker are nods to the career highlights of King James. These include James’ four NBA titles, four Finals MVP awards, and others. The colorway features a mix-matched set, similar to Nike’s popular “What The?” series. The left sneaker sports a bright crimson base and blue tongue, while the right has a Malachite green base with a red tongue.
