November of 2017 was a simpler time. "Arthur" memes were being shared by pretty well everybody, even esteemed athletes like LeBron James. For those who don't remember, the "Arthur" meme featured the television show's main character clenching his fist. That's all the image was...a clenched fist. Either way, the meme became pretty popular and has since been forgotten, until now. Yes, that's right, Nike has turned the "Arthur" meme into a basketball shoe, using the Nike LeBron Soldier 12 as the canvas.

The model, which is known for having some straps across the upper, is dressed in yellow, red, and blue, which makes sense considering those are the colors that "Arthur" can be found wearing. He is known for having a yellow sweater, blue jeans, and red shoes and that is the exact aesthetic you get with these brand new kicks.
