Devin Booker and Nike have been causing quite a stir lately. At the centre of the collaboration is Devin's new sneaker, the Nike Book 1. The latest colourway is simply phenomenal and is once again wowing sneakerheads. The new Nike Book 1 PE "Shattered Backboard" is inspired by one of the most popular Air Jordan 1 colourways of all time. The bright colour combination of "Starfish Orange", black and "Sail" is a tribute to the jersey that Michael Jordan wore in a friendly match in Italy in 1989. During this game, Jordan smashed the backboard with a one-handed slam - hence the name of the sneaker.
With orange toeboxes, collars, heel cups and tongues as well as black eyestays, mudguards, swooshes and tongues, the shoe offers a classic colour combination. The white textile in the midfoot area provides more colour and structure. The Sail midsole and orange outsole round off the look, while the book symbol on the tongue completes the design. A release date has not yet been set, but you can get the first look here.
