The Nike LeBron 8 ??Hardwood Classic?? is a former Player Exclusive colorway of LeBron James?? eighth signature shoe that was given an official retail release in April 2021. The ??Hardwood Classic?? debuted in 2010 as an homage to the Cleveland Cavaliers retro Hardwood Classic team uniforms that were based on the look worn by the team during the late ??80s and early ??90s. Plush Varsity Royal suede sits on the toe, eyelets, mid-panel, and collar. The same shade of blue is used on the Flywire panels found on the forefoot and lateral heel. A white leather Swoosh with orange trim appears on the lateral side of the shoe. The medial side of the shoe is devoid of any Nike or LeBron branding. The top of the orange mesh tongue displays a debossed lion graphic. Below, the white EVA foam midsole is contrasted by an full-length orange-tinted visible Air unit. The ??Hardwood Classic?? is one of the most desirable colorways of what is perhaps the most popular signature shoe in the Nike LeBron footwear line. Release date: April 23, 2021.
