LeBron James arrived at the game on Christmas Day in a stylish designer jacket, but his pre-game outfit wasn't the only thing that turned heads. The Lakers superstar, who was playing in his 18th Christmas Day game, expressed his disappointment with the league's decision to do away with the tradition of special edition jerseys for the holiday.

James has always been a fashion icon, and he wore a rare Louis Vuitton leather jacket for the occasion. When fans saw his pre-game outfit (insert picture of LeBron James in his Christmas Day attire), they couldn't get enough of his on-court attire.

The tradition of NBA players wearing unique jerseys on Christmas has been a favorite for years. From the iconic 2016 Warriors vs. Cavaliers matchup (insert 2016 Warriors vs. Cavaliers Christmas jersey image) to heartwarming advertisements such as "Carol of the Bells" with LeBron in a Miami Heat Christmas jersey in 2012 (insert 2012 LeBron James in a Miami Heat Christmas jersey image), Christmas has always held a special place in the hearts of fans and players alike. Christmas has always occupied a special place in the hearts of fans and players.

In recent years, however, Nike and the NBA have opted to drop the special edition jerseys, much to the dismay of some players, including James and Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura.

"I really wish there were still Christmas Day jerseys across the league. Don't know why it stopped," James posted on social media.

Hachimura, who experienced his first Christmas Day game, expressed similar feelings." My first time. I've been dreaming about it. I'm so excited. Do we have jerseys or not? Like a Christmas jersey?" When told there were no special jerseys, he let out a disappointed "wow."

The lack of a holiday jersey may seem like a small detail, but it's a reminder that a cherished tradition has been lost. Hopefully, James' voice and fans' wishes will resonate with the league and bring back the magic of Christmas jerseys in the future.
