The rollout comes less than two weeks before the four-time league MVP reports to training camp. The Cavs open the season on Oct. 13 at home against the New York Knicks.

The shoe, his 12th since signing with Nike as a rookie out of high school in 2003, features multicolored hexagonal cushions on the soles.
