Nike Just Dropped A “Muted Bronze” LeBron NXXT Gen By Juju

August 5, 2026

With news of the Victor Wembanyama Nike signature shoe and the Alien’s new deal/logo, things are crowded all of a sudden when it comes to the Swoosh roster. To be sure, there are plenty of brands who would kill for that champagne problem. Yet how to navigate their old guard, celebrated established stars, and the next generation presents one of the more intriguing challenges in the industry, likely to necessitate some creative solutions in the years ahead.

We’re already seeing that with the LeBron NXXT Gen By Juju, a co-headlined silhouette that allows the USC star her own shoe without earnestly adding to that crowded group. First debuted at All-Star Weekend, the model has only dropped off two public colorways since winter, now flexing a more colorful direction and intriguing new material make-up mid-summer.

Coated comprehensively in earthy tans throughout the upper, new suede mudguards and eye-stays add textural depth, while pink interplay on the brand notes echo “Neapolitan” looks of old. To ensure the King’s influence isn’t lost on Watkins’ shoe, crown badges on the tongue and quilted interiors tie back to his own vaunted sneaker legacy.

The Nike LeBron NXXT Gen By Juju in this “Muted Bronze” is available now via Foot Locker, retailing for $170. Hit the links below to check for your size.
