Nike has adorned the Halloween spirit right on time this year, and has several launches lined up in the spooky spirit, starting with the Nike Book 1 Leather "Halloween." The sneaker is a Halloween revamp of Devin Booker's classic Book 1 and has the elements to get people into the Halloween spirit.
The Halloween edition sneakers showcase a striking black upper, with orange accents, setting the mood of Halloween just right. Moreover, the Nike swoosh is embroidered in Frankenstein-style stitching.
Finally, the leather upper features a broken finish, that seals the worn and torn spirit of the spooky season into this pair. Priced at $140, the shoes will drop on October 30, 2024.
Describing the Nike Book 1 Leather "Halloween," the official Nike website details the following:
"Celebrate the spooky season with the Book 1 "Halloween" edition. Devin Booker is a craftsman who can lose a defender with an ankle-snatching stutter-go, then come back with a series of spellbinding jab steps into a splashed jumper. Book’s signature shoe gives him the tools he needs to carve up the court."
It continues,
"The black suede upper pairs with Clay Orange accents and glow-in-the-dark details to light up the night. This special design is inspired by Book’s alter ego, a low-key dude off the court who flips the switch and turns into a bucket-getting menace. Check out the Swoosh logo stitching, glow-in-the-dark midsole/outsole and custom font pull tab—all nods to Book’s dueling dispositions."
The Nike Book 1 was the first pair launched in the Devin Booker x Nike collection and was released in Spring 2024.
Devin Booker joined the crew of elite basketball players who collaborated with Nike, and he claims that his collection was heavily inspired by other collaborations between Nike and basketball players, such as the Air Jordans, Air Forces, and Blazers.
The Booker collection is meant to be a mix of performance functionality and lifestyle fashion. Speaking about his creative mindset while working on the collection, Devin Booker in an interview with Arizona Sports said,
"Early on, we landed on the phrase 'future classic'... At the beginning of the design process, we landed on the idea of the shoe combining lifestyle and performance worlds. The goal was to create something that would be timeless".
The Book 1 was released in the spring of 2024 and was well-received by the basketball community, with fans and collectors alike wanting to grab a pair for themselves.
Now, the Halloween edit of the collection has gotten fans pretty excited and they can't wait to get their hands on the same.
