TLDR: With the Nike LeBron 23 ‘Shut Up And Dribble’, LeBron James turns a TV attack into a political statement on the court. The sneaker will be released on 6 February 2026 for €200 – more information as always at Grailify. LeBron James does not forget. Eight years after Fox News presenter Laura Ingraham's infamous comment (‘shut up and dribble’), Nike is releasing a signature sneaker that takes a clear stance: the Nike LeBron 23 ‘Shut Up And Dribble’ weaves political statement, personal history and premium design into a powerful colourway.
The upper is finished in Cool Grey and evokes industrial aesthetics with its textured structure and steel mesh-like overlays. The ambiguous message is hidden on the heel: the words ‘Still Talking’ are partially crossed out, leaving ‘Still King’ legible – a subtle but clear response.
Another highlight is the semi-transparent blue outsoles, which add an icy touch to the otherwise grey design. The colour scheme of the shoe also echoes LeBron's appearance at the 2018 NBA All-Star Game, where he was named MVP in a black and white jersey.
When is the Nike LeBron 23 ‘Shut Up And Dribble’ release date?
The sneaker will be released on 6 February 2026 via Nike.com, the SNKRS app and selected retailers.
