Nike Hike' Basketball Shoes

Devin Booker is a craftsman who can lose a defender with an ankle-snatching "stutter/go", then come back with a series of spellbinding jabs into a splashed jumper. Book's signature shoe gives him the tools he needs to carve. With leather accents highlighting a super-smooth upper and a speedy, yet cushioned ride, this design can help you explore the spaces created by your piercing footwork and hungry hooper soul.

Behind the design

Hiking is Book's escape, a chance to unwind, unplug, hang with his dog and bask in the beaming glory that his adopted hometown offers all year round. This design takes inspiration from some of his favourite trails and his burgeoning passion that continues to blossom under the desert sun.

Book smooth

The outside is pure Book, with a workwear-inspired canvas for added durability, while a suede collar and genuine leather across the forefoot provide more reinforcement and a familiar, plush, broken-in feel out of the box. The pull tab on the heel is inspired by a book spine, with numbers referencing chapters in an ongoing story.

Plant and pivot

A top-loaded midfoot strong plastic shank helps keep your foot stable when making sudden movements like sharp plants, Book-like pivots and jabs in the post and opportunistic cuts. A strong plastic sidewall cage adds even more stability.

Stop and go

A top-loaded Zoom Air unit in the heel provides a measure of responsive speed when taking off in the open floor and coming to sudden halts, like a 2-footed Book jump stop and pump fake around the rim.

Cut hard

The multi-directional, herringbone-like pattern gives you sticky traction that's ideal for lateral cuts and quick changes in movement.

Full-go foam

The soft, full-length foam can help you keep running and cutting in comfort.
