LeBron James was mercilessly roasted by fans for wearing these wild sunglasses at the ESPYs

Don’t let this headline fool you. LeBron James had himself a pretty incredible night at the ESPYs, all things considered.

The man won the ESPY for best record-breaking performance this season and was honored for becoming the NBA’s all-time leading scorer. He also had his family there supporting him, as they’ve done every step of the way during his phenomenal NBA career.

Bron is a winner, man. He’s playing the game of life the right way. He’s amazing at his job. His family loves him and supports him. He’s always just doing the right things. It’s just awesome all the time.

OK, cool. Now that we’ve got all of the niceties out of the way, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. Those glasses, y’all. What was LeBron thinking?!?

LeBron popped out to the ESPYs in a pretty clean outfit. His suit, overall, was pretty dashing. There was one thing that threw people off, though — it was his shades.

He really came out here looking like Will.I.Am with the shades. The vibe is a supervillain. Doc Oc is the inspiration.

I’ll be honest, man. I don’t think these are actually bad. They’re actually kind of cool in a steampunk-y kind of way? I just…don’t know if this is the moment I’d wear these. It just wasn’t doing it for me here.

 

It didn’t do work for a lot of other folks, too. Fans absolutely roasted Bron for these.
