In addition to the just-released "SuperBron" Nike LeBron 16, Nike's Superman-themed LeBron James releases will continue this winter with a remix of the OG LeBron 3 colorway that started it all.

While it's not the OG blue sample spotted on James back in 2016, the "Superman" LeBron 3—now known as the "SuperBron," presumably due to licensing issues—is making its way to retail for the first time ever. The version releasing in 2019 swaps the blue seen on the LeBron 16 iteration for a red patent leather overlay—the same look seen on a 2005 alternate "Superman" colorway.

Following last night's LeBron 16 drop, this "SuperBron" LeBron 3 is set to kick off the new year on Wednesday, Jan. 9 with a release from SNKRS and select retailers for $175.

UPDATE (1/7): Nike has pushed back the release date for the "SuperBron" LeBron 3. The rare PE colorway will now be available on February 2 via Nike SNKRS and other select retailers. Check out official shots of the superhero-themed pair below.
