LeBron James is heading back to Cleveland, and in addition to shaking up the NBA, his latest decision is sure to impact the sneaker industry.

After four years of Miami-inspired colorways, the Nike LeBron signature line is due for an infusion of wine and gold to commemorate his return to Ohio. While we're still waiting to see what Nike has up their sleeves, Chris Darmon has worked on his own 'Homecoming King' LeBron 12 concept.

Along with Angelo Enderez, he rendered the LeBron 12 in Cavs team colors. There's a yellow-based 'Home' shoe and a wine dominated 'Away' pair. Additionally, they worked on an innovative packaging concept that you can see in the photos.

Again, this is just a rendering, so don't plan on seeing either of these colorways actually release...yet. Would you cop either of these rendered versions?
