Following in his father’s footsteps, Bronny James recently sported a piece of LeBron James history during his Los Angeles Lakers rookie photo shoot. The highly anticipated pictures showed Bronny rocking the Nike Air Zoom Generation, LeBron’s very first signature shoe with Nike.

The “Court Purple” colorway Bronny laced up perfectly matched the Lakers’ signature colors, making for a photogenic tribute.

This specific colorway actually re-released in June 2023 and has since sold out, but fans can still find other versions of the Air Zoom Generation at a discount on the Nike website or through sneaker resale platforms.

This wasn’t a random shoe choice for Bronny. He previously mentioned the Air Zoom Generation as his favorite from LeBron’s long line of signature sneakers.

This heartfelt homage adds another layer to the James family’s already legendary NBA story. With Bronny potentially sharing the court with his dad someday, the sneaker world is surely buzzing with anticipation for their future footwear choices.
