Liverpool FC-themed sneaker releases have jumped up a notch ever since Nike took over as their equipment sponsor. The next football crossover is this Air Max 1, which also has a guest appearance from LeBron James.
Wait, what? What does LBJ have to do with Liverpool FC? Well, in 2011, he became a minority owner of the club through a partnership with the Fenway Sports Group. Besides this financial investment in the organisation as a whole, there have been some other Liverpool-themed LeBron sneakers in previous years.
As for these upcoming AM1s, they use a fairly muted combination of black and teal leather on the upper and then break it up with white mesh. Some red accents pop up in the lining and Air unit to tie back to LFC’s home kit. LBJ and Liverpool logos show up on the heels and insoles.
Fans can score a pair of these in December, with finer details TBA.
