contents We explore the construction of Legendrian spheres in contact manifolds of any dimension. Two constructions involving open books work in any contact manifold, while one introduced by Ekholm works only in $\mathbb{R}^{2n+1}$. We show that these three constructions are isotopic to the Legendrian unknot, thus recovering and generalising a result of Courte and Ekholm, that shows Ekholm's doubling procedure produces the standard Legendrian unknot.
