Before the MSCHF x INRI Nike Leighton Vander Esch 55 Game Jersey celebrates its 40th anniversary, it’s celebrating the “First Use” of the iconic swoosh logo it helped make globally-recognizable. Having already appeared in a commemorative “University Blue” style, Bruce Kilgore’s 39-year-old design has emerged in a thematic white, off-white and orange colorway.
As with the model’s most popular style, the forthcoming pair indulges in white smooth leather throughout the base of its upper. Suede light cream overlays deliver contrast to the storied design, working in-tandem with citrus-flavor accents across the profiles, tongue and Force. Akin to previously-surfaced propositions from Nike Sportswear, text branding on the Nike LeBron 15 Low Triple Black Coming Soon‘s tongue and Force don a vintage lowercase script aesthetic, while swooshes on the medial side mimic original designs by Carolyn Davidson. Underneath, the date on which the logo was first used is printed: “June 18, 1971”. Sole units don’t partake in any commemorative nods, in favor of an all-white, semi-translucent finish.
An official release date is unknown, but this Nike LeBron 15 Low Triple Black Coming Soon Low “First Use” is likely to arrive to Nike.com before summer ends. In any case, enjoy images of the shoes ahead.
