"I'm Robbie. I'm Wade. And this is the Behind Design of the Nike Zoom LeBron II LX. And today we are at the sanctum of secrecy. You know what I'm talking about. The Department of Nike Archives."

"You remember the moment, but do you remember the shoe, the fur, the texture, the style, the design, the fact that you couldn't get them? I'm talking about the Nike Zoom LeBron II LX."

"All right, we're in DNA. So, first things first, we got to put on gloves. This was the shoe that no one could have. It was a one of one, P Exclusive, meaning only LeBron had."

"With every great shoe there's dominance in the details. I don't know much about it, but I know someone who does. Let's take it to Wade. Appreciate you, Rob. Coming off of the success of the Air Zoom generation…"

"…Nike knew that we had to up the ante for LeBron's second signature shoe, and the first one that actually bears his name. You can see that we really found that perfect balance between style, performance, and comfort. So, the first thing I want to highlight is that large volume Zoom Airbag…"

"…and that gave LeBron the responsiveness that he needed coming off the court. As we move into the middle of the shoot, you can see that we have that midfoot shank that really gave LeBron the stability that he needed. 10 out of 10 traction."

"As we go up the shoe, we look at the high ankle strap, and that's what really locked LeBron down into the shoe as he moved around the court and it actually resembles the headband that he wore in his early career."

"Now with the shoe, with that pinnacle technology in it, LeBron put up a pinnacle second season, there was no such thing as a sophomore slump over here, not in LeBron's performance or in his second signature shoe."

"LeBron actually made the All-Star team for the first time wearing the Zoom LeBron IIs. And he also put up a stat line of 27, 7, and 7, at the end of the season, a shoe fit for a king. Back to you, Robbie."

"The Nike Zoom LeBron II LX is exclusively available on the SNKRS app. Maybe not exclusive, but most importantly on the SNKRS app. Get yourself a pair. Own your street, own your court, own your city."

"I'm Robbie. And I'm Wade. And this has been the Behind the Design for the Nike Zoom LeBron II LX."

"Nah, bro, that's not how you do it. How you do it? This way. Oh, just this is- Flourish, bro. Oh, yeah. 23, 23, 23, okay. Yeah."
