When LeBron James took the floor for his first home game with the Philadelphia 76ers, he wore a Nike LeBron 24 “Philly” that also got a small public release. Only 76 pairs were made, a reference to his new team, and buyers had to visit a Philadelphia pop-up to get them.

The shoe has a tonal knit upper, with much of the detail coming from the texture of the fabric. Glossy Swooshes contrast with that surface, while metallic lace hardware brings another finish into the design. The LeBron crown sits on the tongue. Around the collar and along the outsole, additional detailing carries the design beyond the upper.

Nike kept the release in Philadelphia through a Nike Basketball pop-up welcoming James to the city. That gave local buyers a chance at the colorway he wore for his home debut, though the 76-pair limit left very few available. There was no wider retail release as part of the launch.

The Nike LeBron 24 “Philly” dropped October 21–22, 2026, at 901 Market Street in Philadelphia. All 76 pairs were reserved for the two-day pop-up as James began his first season in a Sixers uniform.
