LeBron’s carried the game for two decades. But what if we could help lighten the load? Enter the LeBron XXIII Elite. It offers peak lightweight responsiveness thanks to springy, full-length ZoomX foam—perfect for the high speed demands of the modern game — and a crown-shaped containment system to help you stay locked in. And, in true regal fashion, we raised the stakes even higher by removing the tongue and implementing a full-length Flyknit upper while honoring Bron's christened status as the game's new scoring King. Scoring King The all-time scoring record is atop the list of holy grails. Unbreakable. Unattainable. Unless you’re LeBron James. On February 7, 2023, LeBron buried a fadeaway jumper, scoring his 38,388th point to become the association’s new scoring King. This colorway celebrates that seminal moment, though it wasn’t an end, but a benchmark with plenty more to come. Unreal Bounce The LeBron XXIII offers ultimate lightweight responsiveness thanks to some of our best basketball technology. A full-length ZoomX drop-in midsole offers optimal bounce. And, a carbon fiber plate helps keep your foot stable when making sudden movements while helping add a bit of speed. Stay Sturdy Whether attacking the paint or applying perimeter pressure, the innovative crown-shaped containment system will help you stay locked in. Light Work With an engineered jacquard and premium bootie lining, the LeBron XXIII is the ultimate in lightweight luxury, so you can get to your spots and keep your cuts razor sharp.
