As of late 2022, speculation has been rife that Devin Booker was on track to obtain his own signature Nike sneaker. The rumors have now been validated by Sole Retriever, who confirms that the Nike Book 1 is officially set to launch during Holiday 2023.
The inaugural colorway, dubbed "Clay Orange," features a Suns-inspired palette of clay orange, ice peach, and campfire orange. While specific design and color placement details remain under wraps, we anticipate that Booker's personality and background will play a significant role in shaping the sneaker's aesthetic.
Furthermore, it's expected to boast the most advanced tech specs and materials that Nike offers; It's rumored that the initial Spring launch delay was due to Booker's insistence on incorporating the brand's latest technology and materials.
It is likely that Nike will hope to replicate the success provided by the now-defunct Kyrie line, which served some of the most tech-advanced sneakers at a low entry price.
Expect more details to follow soon.
