When he returned to Cleveland, it seemed probable. When the Cavaliers won a ring, it became inevitable. Now, it’s official — Nike will be bringing back LeBron James very first signature shoes to retail.

King James shared the news last night on social media in a lengthy video and Instagram post. “When I held these shoes for the first time I couldn’t believe I was holding a Nike sneaker with my name on it AND that they’d forever be known as the “LeBron’s.” he wrote. “This shoe changed my life, my family’s life, and we’ve been lucky enough to change the lives of people around us….This shoe is for EVERY SINGLE person with a dream and a passion…FIRE IS BAAAAAACK #AZG #StriveForGreatness”

LeBron’s first signature model was the Air Zoom Generation, or AZG for short. The model he showcased on social media is the colorway commonly referred to as the ‘First Games,’ since he wore them 14 years ago when he stepped on the court as a member of the Cavs as they squared off against the Denver Nuggets. The shoe is predominantly white and crimson red with navy accents and features the date of the game, 11-5-2003, stitched inside. Although no hard dates have been revealed, James does mention that the shoes will release “within the next day or so…could be a week…but not too far.”

Now that Nike’s opened the door to bringing back older ‘Bron silos and colorways, let’s hope the black and white AZGs are part of their immediate plans and maybe a retro of the old 20-5-5s will be available by 2018 or so.

Check out another look at the upcoming ‘First Game’ retro below.

Update: Nike shared a brief update with official images for the ‘First Game’ AZGs and the release date, which has been set for Wednesday, January 25. Info on which stores will carry the kicks hasn’t been revealed yet but stay tuned as we will update as soon as it becomes available.
