LeBron and Mbappe

It’s not often that two athletes from two different sports get to interact, congratulate, or applaud each other, but that’s exactly what LeBron James and Kylian Mbappe have been doing as they’ve teamed up to create “The Chosen 2” Pack. It will be available to Nike and House of Innovation Paris on January 7th, and will be released to the web and in stores on January 9th. “The Chosen 2” Pack features two silhouettes: the Nike LeBron 18 and the Nike Mercurial.

Nike LeBron 18

Nike LeBron 18 is the latest shoe model of LeBron James, while Nike Mercurial is the legendary soccer shoe model of Nike used by many players, including Mbappe. Both shoes have the logos and symbols of 2 famous players in 2 different sports. Nike LeBron 18 has a rather unique upper, especially the sole is made of a very unique transparent color.

As for the Mercurial, what catches our eye are the two swoosh marks on the upper of the shoe, the upper mainly uses knit technology, along with flywire to minimize the weight of the shoe, and finally a layer of plastic to protect the shoe from tearing when sliding or kicking. The studs are plated in a pretty cool color that reminds us of titanium when exposed to heat. In this pack, Street Vibe appreciates the Mercurial more because of its extremely fancy sole. Let’s take a look at some images of “The Chosen 2” Pack with Street Vibe.
