‘SHUT UP AND DRIBBLE’

As someone who lives by the mantra “more than an athlete,” LeBron has always used his stature a public figure to speak out on social issues. No, he won’t shut up and dribble — he’s too focused on inspiring the next era of hoopers to speak truth to power.

From a kid from Akron to a Forever King, the journey spans two decades of redefining greatness on the hardwood.

23 colorways. 23 stories. Only one crown.

Built with more of edge than other LeBron XXIII colorways, the ‘Shut Up And Dribble’ utilizes a cool grey execution across the silhouette to dial up a serious tone. A shimmery effect on the mid foot crown is outlined by a purple shade, while gold on the lateral swoosh adds a hint of royalty. To further dial up the moment, sound waves tied back to the audio of those interviews make up the upper pattern design. On the heel, an icon labeled “Still King” drives home the point that LeBron won’t be knocked off his pivot.
