Back like it never left, representing the past in this new day and age is the Nike LeBron 12 EXT ‘Wheat’. Also dubbed ‘12th Generation‘ this new colorway was inspired by the very first signature shoe that was inspired by the fact LeBron said he could play in anything, that means even Timberland boots.

LEBRON XII EXT WHEAT
12th GENERATION
Today, LeBron James can boast over 10 All-Star appearances, multiple MVP awards and the game’s most precious accomplishment. Before it all, he took part in one of the most highly anticipated Rookie challenges ever, racking up 33 points for the now legendary 2003-2004 rookie class.
The special moment called for special footwear, with LeBron wearing his debut Air Zoom Generation in the now highly coveted ‘Wheat’ make-up. Eleven years later, the silhouette that started it all inspires a limited edition take on the upcoming LeBron XII EXT.
Geared for off-court use, the LeBron XII EXT features a wheat nubuck upper with metallic gold accents. As a nod to LeBron’s memorable rookie challenge performance, the heel pull-tab displays the date 2.13.04. Classic LeBron branding on the tongue tab and sockliner tie back to the legendary Air Zoom Generation.
