Nike is gearing up to launch the LeBron 22 Frozen Grapes on April 1, 2025. This new iteration draws from LeBron James’ deep signature line history while acknowledging his recent 50,000-point milestone and ongoing dominance. Priced at $180 for adults and $140 for grade school sizes, the sneaker will be available both online and at select retailers.
The upper of the LeBron 22 Frozen Grapes features a two-part design. On the lateral side, tumbled white leather provides structure and contrast. The medial side brings in a metallic silver panel with graffiti graphics. These graphics include words like “Winning,” “Witness,” and “Fear,” directly referencing the LeBron 4 “Graffiti” – a fan-favorite from nearly twenty years ago. The graphics wrap the upper in a visual style that connects past and present, continuing a tradition that began with the LeBron 17 Graffiti Pack.
Purple and turquoise dominate the sneaker’s color palette, recalling the hues seen in early Jordan Brand releases. The two-tone laces echo this palette, while a snowy white tongue and inner lining extend the frozen theme. Aqua bungee cord detailing runs through the cut-out Swoosh on the side and wraps around the heel, forming LeBron’s signature.
The outsole uses translucent purple rubber with a unique marbled pattern that matches the upper. Nike’s newest performance setup – Zoom Turbo in the forefoot, a Zoom Air unit in the heel, and Cushlon 2.0 foam – delivers responsive cushioning and court-ready comfort. A supportive high-cut silhouette and padded collar enhance ankle protection, suitable for quick lateral movements and physical play.
Additional details include an iridescent Swoosh on the lateral side, a graffiti-style “Bron” print on the medial panel, and purple insoles stamped with LeBron branding. Flyknit construction in strategic areas ensures breathability, while reinforced eyelets and secure lacing provide lockdown fit.
