Nike took to their official site to provide a release reminder for the upcoming new colorway for Nike LeBron XI “Terracotta Warrior” which the colorway is Mine Grey/Electro Purple-Mercury Grey-Newsprint.. Us over at Defpen Radio decided to relay the message to you guys and find out if these will be a DEF cop or DEF not.
LeBron James was impressed by the Terracotta Warrior Exhibition, which he visited when he was in Xi’An, China, in 2011. The exhibit, plus James’s playing style – which reflects a warrior’s spirit of grit, confidence, hard work and determination – inspired the Terracotta Warrior colorway.
The design of the shoe is inspired by the Terracotta Warriors as we see them today — in neutral stone colors along with pop colors of purple/teal/red to represent how they were originally painted. The graphic texture on the upper articulates the linked, plated armor that the warriors wore. The special lining shank design graphic is drawn from the style of Bronze Age art, the era in which the Terracotta Warriors were made.
