MANILA, Philippines—LeBron James has another Philippine-inspired sneaker that has now become a staple in his signature line.

The four-time NBA MVP showed off the latest pair of “Agimat” sneakers in his shoe line but the new edition of the talismanic kicks now sport a bright red upper instead of the subdued blue hue from previous iterations.

James showed off the LeBron 17 low “Agimat” in his Instagram stories while giving a shoutout to Filipino sneaker store Titan, the chief collaborator for the special colorway.

The colorway, though, still retained the gold accents that have been prominent since the first pair in the line.

This is the fourth “Agimat” following special colorways for the LeBron 14, LeBron Soldier 12, and LeBron 16 low.

There is still no word on the specifics of the shoe but, based on James’ post, it sports an Air bag that stretches from the middle of the foot to the heel while the forefoot has React cushioning.
