Update: We first previewed the Nike Book 1 “Moss Point” back in November of 2023 as Booker and Nike Basketball were preparing for the debut of the Nike Book 1. Since then, we’ve seen his first signature shoe appear in an unprecedented amount of colorways. While not all of them have ended up on retail shelves, we continue to see pairs like this “Moss Point” look release over a year after being unveiled. Nike has just presented its official imagery of the kicks, highlighting the pair as it pays homage to Booker’s former high school of Moss Point. A release date of April 18 has been set via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $140 USD. For more info about the pair, check out our initial breakdown below.
Original Story: The Phoenix Suns‘ star shooting guard is gearing up for his next chapter, launching his first signature shoe with Nike later this year. Leading up to December launch date, Book has been giving fans a teaser of what to expect. The latest teaser is the Nike Book 1 arriving in a “Moss Point” colorway, a nod to his alma mater, Moss Point High School.
The color scheme is inspired by the corner store that Book used to frequent when he attended school. The shoe takes on a similar hue to the Devin Booker x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Moss Point,” which was originally released in 2019. Similar to the AF1, his own signature shoe sports a similar subtle cerulean leather upper with a suede gunmetal accents placed at the heel guard. The shades have a pearl finish on the sole. On the metallic heel, embroidered messages read, “Yes Ma’am ” and “No Sir,” referencing Book’s Souther roots. On the heel tag is “96,” a nod to his birth year.
The Nike Book 1 arriving in the signature vivid orange is scheduled to launch in December as his first release and will only have a limited 500 pair drop. The other colorways including “Moss Point” are slated to arrive sometime next spring. Look out for the shoe on Nike and select retailers when the time comes.
