The Nike Book 2 “All-Star” Is Phoenix Energy at Full Blast

The Nike Book 2 LX “All-Star” arrives at a moment when Devin Booker’s signature line already has real momentum. The Nike Book 1 received a strong response for its steady storytelling, wearable colorways, and thoughtful collaborations, establishing Booker as a long-term pillar of Nike Basketball’s lineup. With the Nike Book 2 only just beginning its own run — highlighted by Spiridon-inspired looks and early projects with fragment Design — All-Star Weekend 2026 is shaping up as its first major statement moment.

This LX edition leans fully into that spotlight. The shoe is built around glossy, iridescent uppers that shift between deep orange and fiery red tones, giving the silhouette a near Foamposite-like finish. The color choice is intentional: orange ties directly to Phoenix, while the scorpion motif references Booker’s home court and desert identity. That theme is most clearly expressed in the sculpted scorpion lace jewel, a centerpiece detail that sets the LX apart from standard releases.

Additional All-Star detailing appears throughout. “Warning Label 26” branding is stamped onto the tongue, aligning this pair with the wider NBA All-Star footwear collection. Metallic accents, including the black Swoosh and gold-toned “BOOK” tongue plate, add contrast against the high-gloss shell. Underfoot, Book 2’s performance setup remains unchanged, keeping the focus on the elevated materials and presentation rather than a tech overhaul.

Packaging is another clear upgrade. The Nike Book 2 LX “All-Star” arrives in a molded hard case that houses the shoes and accessories, underscoring the limited nature of the release. Expect quantities to be tight, with this version positioned as a premium All-Star drop rather than a mass release.

A general release Nike Book 2 “All-Star” is also expected to follow, using a similar orange-based palette but stripped of the LX finishes and special packaging. The Nike Book 2 LX “All-Star” is currently expected to release during NBA All-Star Weekend 2026.
