Nike Is Launching the ‘Play for the Future’ Sneaker Collection for the 2021 All-Star Game

Nike is celebrating this year’s NBA All-Star Game with a special drop. On March 7, ahead of the big event, the sportswear giant will drop a “Play for the Future” sneaker collection at Nike.com, which is inspired by the league’s biggest players. Included in the drop are five different kicks — all bearing a touching meaning. First up is the LeBron 18. The shoe, which is the latest signature style for LeBron James, features a white, clear and blue-tinted design, which represents “unpolluted air athletes need to breathe when they play now and in the future,” Nike explained in a statement. Additionally, the Max Air on the shoe provides impact cushioning under the heel. The shoe will retail for $225. Next is the Kyrie 7, the newest signature look for Kyrie Irving. The shoe is inspired by Irving’s “overall commitment to healthy living” and his own plant-based diet. The shoe is adorned with plant-inspired graphics throughout the upper and a sprouted “KI” logo on the heel. The sneaker is designed with a mesh fabric and is equipped with a curved Zoom Air unit, providing “next-generation energy return.” This Kyrie 7 is $140.
