The pair pays homage to the uniforms worn at the 1995 NBA All-Star Game, which was the second time Phoenix hosted the event (after 1975).

Earlier on Saturday, the Nike Book 1 released in the “Mirage” colorway. The pair sold out in several minutes online and was notably sold-out on the Nike SNKRS App before the Air Jordan 4 “Bred Reimagined” which dropped at the same time.

Saturday’s release marked the first time Booker’s first signature shoe was made available to the masses.

The “Clay Orange” colorway nicknamed “Chapter One” originally released exclusively at LeBron James’ UNKNWN store in Miami during Art Basel in December and was limited to just 500 pairs.

Later on Saturday, Booker left signed pairs of his shoe around Indianapolis, posting the locations on his Instagram for fans to find.

On Friday evening, Booker hosted a private event to celebrate the release of his first signature sneaker.
