On top of the three pairs set to land on April 22, there is now a Friends and Family edition of the Blazer Low in the 'Dark Gold Leaf' colourway that has been previously seen only on the Book 1. shared images of the limited edition, which comes stamped with '57 of ’72' on the sock liner – confirming there will be just 72 pairs of this iteration in existence.
Devin Booker has been busy flexing both on and off the court this season, having lined up some killer PEs as well as his three-way colab with Nike and Chevrolet. Now, release details have surfaced for the trio's linkup, alongside better looks at the pairs.
The Chevrolet x Book 1 'Dark Gold Leaf' and Chevrolet x Blazer Low 'Team Dark Green' will release on April 22 via SNKRS, whereas the 'Surf Blue' Blazer Low will release at select Nike retailers.
NBA star Devin Booker is known for his impressive classic car collection, sending OG car heads wild when he in a GMC Typhoon last week. Now his two loves are colliding, with a three-way colab set to land between Booker, Chevrolet and Nike.
Two iterations have surfaced of the Chevy colab, with the first coming in a vintage green Blazer. The model of choice makes sense when the inspiration comes into view: Booker’s own Chevy Blazer K5 in the same colour. The design takes on a hairy suede complemented by a crispy white leather Swoosh and gum outsoles. Storytelling comes in by the bucketload on this iteration, with the heel featuring ‘BOOK’ in the same style that Nike used in the 1970s on Player Exclusives. Additionally, the Chevy logo makes an appearance on a metal hangtag that sits beside another that reads ‘DB Blazer’. The packaging takes things even further, with customised wrapping featuring vintage Chevy and Nike advertisements and specs. The box lid shows a map of the world with Michigan highlighted since that’s where both Booker and Chevy hail from.
Alongside this green Blazer is a mustard Book 1, although it doesn’t appear to have the level of storytelling that the Blazer does. It’s constructed of the same hairy suede and features the Chevy logo on the tongue in blue and ‘Chevrolet’ written on the heel in white.
The Chevrolet x Devin Booker x Nike Blazer is set to release on April 22, and it’s unclear whether the mustard Book 1 will launch aside it. Stay locked to Sneaker Freaker for the latest.
