LeBron James was recently spotted at son Bronny James Jr’s USC game sporting a pair of solar red Nike Air Yeezy 2s. LeBron sporting the kicks has set X abuzz, making it a hot topic among fans and sneaker enthusiasts alike.

The “Solar Red” Nike Air Yeezy 2s are an extremely rare pair of shoes. Part of their allure comes from their limited release and the end of Kanye West‘s partnership with Nike. Known for the iconic Solar Red colorway, these sneakers had a release that was as exclusive as it gets – available only online and sold out in mere seconds.

Nike‘s collaboration with Kanye West ended in 2014 amidst disagreements over royalties. Kanye reportedly sought royalties akin to those given to professional athletes, which Nike declined. This disagreement led to their partnership’s conclusion, turning any Nike Yeezy release into an instant classic.

Post-Nike, Kanye West didn’t miss a beat and announced a partnership with Adidas. Despite Nike executives cautioning Adidas about Kanye’s demanding style, Adidas embraced the collaboration. This partnership marked a significant upturn for Adidas, enhancing its sales and presence in the market substantially.

Of course, things eventually turned sour when the company was forced to cut ties with the global superstars. This was following some controversial comments from the rapper that had been deemed anti-semitic, leading to a bitter legal battle that is still going on.

The Nike Air Yeezy 2 “Solar Red” were released in 2014 online on Nikestore. Only limited pairs were sold at that time, after which production was halted. This made them one of the rarest shoes to be ever produced. They are also arguably the best Yeezys ever designed, making them even more coveted.
