Sneaker fans have a lot to look forward to this November with Nike unveiling the LeBron 22 “Monopoly,” a tribute to LeBron James' family game nights, and New Balance releasing a “Bone” colorway of the 9060. Both sneakers bring unique stories and styles to the season’s lineup.
Nike LeBron 22 ‘Monopoly’ Brings Family Game Night Vibes with Colorful, Iconic Details
For LeBron James, his signature sneakers serve as a canvas to showcase stories of his family of five, including his wife, Savannah; his son and teammate, Bronny; middle child, Bryce; and youngest, Zhuri. His latest collaboration with Monopoly, the classic Hasbro board game, draws on the James family’s fondness for game nights and highlights iconic elements from the game itself.
The Nike LeBron 22 “Monopoly” edition features an upper graphic inspired by Monopoly’s play money, showcasing colorful shades of pink, light orange, and green to echo the game’s faux currency. Silver accents on the Swoosh and midsole reflect the metallic game pieces, adding a nostalgic nod to the game’s iconic tokens. The themed design extends to the packaging, with Monopoly’s printed currency on the inner tissue paper and a custom co-branded shoebox completing the look.
Official images of the Nike LeBron 22 “Monopoly” recently surfaced. A release is expected in November 2024, bringing this unique family-inspired collaboration to fans just in time for the holiday season.
New Balance 9060 ‘Bone’ Colorway Adds Cozy Style and Durability to the Classic Dad Shoe
Meanwhile, New Balance is set to release a new “Bone” colorway for the famous 9060 model, which has gained a reputation as the ultimate “dad shoe.” The Boston-based brand, known for dominating this niche, has crafted the 9060 with thick leather overlays, providing durability that suits colder months. This “Bone” iteration features a subtle off-white treatment across the shoe, complemented by sage green mesh and brown “Sparrow” accents for added visual appeal.
The New Balance 9060 “Bone/Sparrow” has started to appear at select retailers, suggesting an imminent release on newbalance.com. With its chunky design and unique colorway, the 9060 “Bone” continues solidifying itself as one of the most in-demand “dad shoes” in New Balance’s lineup.
