Yesterday LeBron James announced his new line of Nike LeBron 12 sneakers in Portland. We are happy to report that Nike kept the young athletes in mind and will be launching whole range of LeBron 12s in Grade School, Pre-School, Toddler and Infant sizes along with the adults. We are a fan of the sneakers and can’t wait till they release, see more info below.
The LEBRON 12 will be available in both adult and young athlete sizes globally on Nike.com and at select retail locations. It is available for customization on Nike.com/NIKEiD beginning October 6th.

The initial seven LEBRON 12 colorways are inspired by James’s game, physical attributes, and the analysis that went into the development of his latest signature shoe:
LEBRON 12 NSRL – James wasn’t made in a lab, but he is made better by Nike’s research, testing and analysis. The LEBRON 12 lead colorway reflects the process of turning data into design to create superior performance footwear. Launch: Oct. 1 in China; Oct. 11 globally.
LEBRON 12 Heart of a Lion – James has demonstrated the courageous heart of a lion while being tested both physically and mentally over his 11-year professional career. Launch: Oct. 30.
LEBRON 12 Dunk Force – Inspired by the power of James’s statement tomahawk dunk and equated to the speed and force of a helicopter rotor blade. Launch: Nov. 11.
LEBRON 12 Instinct – James’s keen 20/20 eyesight combined with his uncommon speed and agility translates to pinpoint, instinctual decisions, much like the way a hummingbird sees and navigates. Launch: Nov. 22.
LEBRON 12 Six Meridians – A key component of James’s training recovery and preparation is massage therapy. The ancient Chinese practice of reflexology releases energy to different points of the body, or meridians, when massaging pressure points in the feet and hands. Launch: Nov. 29.
LEBRON 12 Trillion Dollar Man – Are we looking at the athlete of the future today in LeBron James? Inspired by James’ legendary work ethic and physical gifts combined with Nike’s finest performance technology. Launch: Dec. 1.
LEBRON 12 Data – James is arguably the most dominant player in the game today, with the statistics to support that claim. Launch: Dec. 20.
Note: We are not sure if all the shoes will be available for kids, stay tuned for launch info.
