Nike finally announced the release dates of the delayed editions of the LeBron 12 shoe model with the first one hitting shelves this week worldwide.
The LeBron 12 "Dunk Force" will be released on Tuesday, November 11, in select Nike retailers worldwide. The Wolf Grey/Reflect Silver-Black-Electric Green colorway of LeBron James' features a grey-based upper with black and green hints finished off with a full icy blue translucent outsole.
James is known for his rim-rattling dunks in the NBA, which is said to be the inspiration of this new edition.
"The latest colorway of the LeBron 12 is inspired by the power of James's statement tomahawk dunk and equated to the speed and force of a helicopter rotor blade," Nike noted. "LeBron James showcases an extraordinary blend of strength, court vision, efficiency and explosive speed while competing at basketball's highest level. His rare skill set requires innovative footwear tailored to the specifications of his multidimensional game."
The LeBron 12 "Dunk Force" will be available for $200 per pair for men's sizes and $160 for gradeschool sizes. More photos of the shoe are available on this link, while the release dates of other colorways are listed below.

Aside from LeBron James' signature shoe, Nike will also release the Chuck Posite ID on Tuesday. The new edition features metallic upper part with black hints based on your liking. According to Nike, this shoe was inspired by the Air Foamposite One and former NBA superstar Charles Barkley.
"The limited-edition Nike Chuck Posite QS iD is a modern take on the 1997 Nike Air Foamposite One and features design inspiration from Charles Barkley," Nike noted. "Customize your upper with metallic colors, reflective accents or a crocodile-inspired graphic, and add a glow-in-the-dark outsole and lace to turn heads at night. For even more pop, splatter you shoe with paint speckles in the color of your choice-solid or glow-in-the-dark."
