Following the debut of his first signature shoe, Austin Reaves and Rigorer are celebrating his four-year max contract signing with the Los Angeles Lakers by launching a new colorway of the Rigorer AR1. First debuted at Sneaker Con Los Angeles with KICKS CREW, the AR1 “Showtime” serves as the third release from Austin’s signature shoe line.

Priced at $100 USD, the Austin Reaves Rigorer AR1 “Showtime” expresses Lakers colors in a vibrant tribute to the Lakers’ “Showtime” legacy, reflecting the team’s triumphs and Austin’s goal of returning them to that glory. The AR1 features woven cocoon uppers, TPU panels, bubble lacing system, Showtime Foam Tech midsoles encapsulated in EVA foam, anti-torsion TPU plates, and anti-slip rubber outsoles.

“This summer has just been absolutely surreal for me. Everything has been amazing, from signing long-term with the Lakers to playing in the FIBA World Cup and my shoes selling out in minutes,” said Austin Reaves. “But now my focus is strictly on the Lakers and making sure I do whatever I can to bring that championship trophy back to Los Angeles, and this shoe is a reflection of that goal and my journey with the organization.”

Partnering with KICKS CREW again, the exclusive global launch partner will be releasing the Rigorer AR1 “Showtime” October 28, 11 a.m. EDT online alongside Rigorer.
