The face of Nike since inking a historic endorsement deal in 2003, LeBron James returned to location of the brand's headquarters for a game against the Portland Trail Blazers tonight.

A trip to Oregon calls for a special sneaker moment, so James is continuing #LeBronWatch with an on-foot debut of the "Orange Box" LeBron 15. Though Nike has undergone many transformations throughout the years, its orange Swoosh logo and shoe box are synonymous with the brand. James' shoe featurs an all orange upper and the striped grey trim pulled directly from the iconic packaging.

When the Cavs took the floor, Nike released the colorway exclusively through its SNKRS app, with a 20-minute window to enter the drawing to purchase a pair.
