The sweet taste of victory was celebrated with a champagne toast on June 21. Now the Championship comes to life with an NSW exclusive cork shoe.

Nike Sportswear pays tribute to LeBron James' first NBA Championship with a genuine cork version of his tenth signature shoe, the LeBron X. The concept is derived from the post game tradition of popping a bottle to celebrate victory and a World Champion standing the test of time like a fine champagne.

The LeBron X Cork marks the first of multiple Nike Sportswear versions of signature basketball shoes, all remixed with premium materials for non-performance use.

The Nike Sportswear LeBron X Cork shoe launches globally this December in limited quantities.
