LeBron James and Nike take the shoe and breakfast games by storm this weekend with the release of the LeBron 12 EXT "Cereal." 

Bathed in white, "University Red" and an array of colors sure to make a bowl of Fruity Pebbles blush, the latest iteration of the market's juggernaut is impossible to ignore.

Here's a look at the release details, per Kicks on Fire:

Date	Price
Saturday, July 18	$250

Foot Locker provided an initial look at the colorful shoe:

Sneaker Bar Detroit flipped the high-ticket item on opposite sides to provide an all-encompassing look:

Wow, right?

It's an eye-catching take on the modern classic, to say the least. The multicolored background gets a plastic-based covering, and the background extends to the swoosh and even wraps around the back.

As Featured Footwear showcased, the innovative pattern stretches the length of the tongue right up to a black pull tab:

It doesn't stop there, folks. The bottom of the shoe touts the familiar LeBron 12 feel with the icy geometric design, with some of the shapes sporting different colors.

As for the interior, the candy-themed colors splash to the inside, too. The Sneaker Source covered the important angles:

This one takes inspiration from street legends, too, with the John Strickland quote "Finish Your Breakfast" found on the back pull tab. SneakerFiles.com zoomed in on the feature:

The inspiration strong and the colorful execution even better, this is a can't-miss shoe that's sure to fly off store shelves. There are many ways such a design could go wrong, but this iteration provides the blueprint on how to knock it out of the park.

By now, folks know the LeBron 12 can perform on the court or blacktop. It's just not the focus here. The focus is on the look, a trendsetter before it's even released.

Sneakerheads can make the LeBron 12 EXT "Cereal" theirs Saturday, but in this case, finishing breakfast isn't such a good idea—this one will go quick.
