Kids' Nike Lebron Soldier

Kids’ LeBron Soldier Series Brings the Fresh

LeBron James brings an unmatched combination of size, strength, and athleticism to the game. His LeBron Soldier signature series lets him bring one more element to the courts. And the kids’ LeBron Soldier brings it all to his youngest fans.

 

From One Signature to Another

LeBron’s game is so big, he can’t even be contained by just one signature shoe.

Since 2003, fans of all ages have anticipated each new season and the fresh Nike LeBron signature shoes that come with it. But just as the game’s biggest star gets his second wind, his second signature shoe — the LeBron Soldier series — drops just in time for the playoffs.

The shoe's design brings one more essential element to LeBron’s game. The hook-and-loop straps on virtually every LeBron Soldier model are a testament to that, as its goal is to lock your feet into the supportive cushioning and stability needed on all surfaces, whether it's the court or the school playground. It’s all about responsiveness, which is why Nike cushions the Soldier with Zoom Air, a low-profile Air cushioning that keeps the foot closer to the ground, increasing reaction time and explosiveness.

 

Pieces of Greatness

Recent models, such as the Nike LeBron Soldier XII and XIII, draw on popular design elements from some of LeBron’s other kicks.

The LeBron Soldier XII features a crisscrossing midfoot strap that will remind savvy sneaker fans of the Nike Air Raid of 1992. That outdoor basketball shoe included a crossing “X” strap that would give Soldier wearers a great way to adjust their fit.

The LeBron Soldier XIII, released for the 2019 playoffs, borrows the gusseted tongue from the Nike LeBron XVI, the King’s primary signature shoe released at the beginning of the season. That tongue, secured to the upper, gives an easy-on — perfect for that kid who doesn’t really like bothering with laces.

Its dual straps not only give kids a way to fine-tune their fit but are also just part of the fun, high-energy colorblocking on the whole shoe.

No matter which way kids turn for their LeBron look, they can complete the style with LeBron James apparel from Nike at Foot Locker. Check out everything from T-shirts to hoodies to Nike DNA jerseys.
