LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers are in South Beach to take on the Miami Heat on Tuesday night. As is usually the case when James makes his return to the only place he’s called home other than Cleveland during his NBA career, there are plenty of eyes on the game to see if anything special goes down.
It remains to be seen whether James tears the roof American Airlines Arena, or if Dwyane Wade and the Heat can keep him in check. But one thing is for sure: The kicks that James is rocking on Tuesday night are absolutely fire.
James is wearing a special “South Beach” colorway of the Nike LeBron 15s, as we saw thanks to his Instagram account. We’ve seen a number of special colorways on these kicks out of James, but these look especially fantastic.
These follow a similar color pattern as the Heat’s tremendous Miami Vice uniforms, and as Yahoo Sports NBA pointed out, these are hardly James’ first signature sneakers that had this color combination.

It remains to be seen if these kicks will be available for release on Nike’s SNKRS app as other LeBron 15 colorways have been. It would be unfortunate if they’re not, because as James would do in a similar scenario, we let out a big ol’ “sheesh” when they were revealed.
