This certainly isn't the first post about them, but it is your first look at the "Gold Medal" edition of the new LeBron X on foot, so that counts for something.
Spotted on Matt Lambert, Nike China's Brand Presentation Sr. Manager, this edition feautres a metallic gold reverse Swoosh along the heel, along with a molded gold lacelock for some added detail. It was an item we first saw on the "Watch The Throne" LeBron 9, and at the time, Nike Basketball Graphic Designer Erick Goto hinted that they had similar luxe lacelocks in mind for several future projects.
This shoe is apparently one of them.
