LeBron James‘ favorite board game may be sold out (and commanding upwards of $5K), but you can still celebrate the NBA superstar’s love for Monopoly with a new limited-edition release of his signature kicks.
To celebrate the 90th anniversary of the iconic game, Nike is partnering with Hasbro on the LeBron NXXT Genisus EP and Nike LeBron XXII “What The Currency” sneakers ($121 and up), which both feature Monopoly branding in distinctive lines, silky smooth fluidity and flex. Meanwhile, accents and colorways are bold and eye-catching.
Made from sustainable materials, both Nike sneakers are sleek and stylish, while they’re made for speed and durability. The sports apparel company’s state-of-the-art absorption materials give additional cushioning and bounce when on the basketball court, or in casual use for everyday wear.
