"Being the son, husband and father of strong African American women, I felt like this was something I wanted to do for them and for all the strong women out there who are succeeding despite what might be stacked against them."
The HFR x LeBron 16 is the result of a collaboration between the G.O.A.T. and New York City-based fashion collective Harlem Fashion Row, which "provides a voice for multicultural designers," especially women.
