As the NBA season nears its midpoint, Los Angeles Lakers star Austin Reaves and performance footwear brand Rigorer are preparing to drop the latest addition to Reaves’ signature shoe line: the Rigorer AR2 “Milky Way.”

Building on the transformative butterfly narrative introduced with the AR1, the AR2 represents Reaves’ evolution from a promising rookie to a dominant force on the court. The “Milky Way” colorway marks the third iteration in the AR2 lineup, paying homage to Reaves’ stellar performance and rising stardom.

The shoe features a muted lavender mesh upper, complemented with darker purple TPU and butterfly stroke overlays adding depth and contrast. Subtle blue accents adorn the eyelet, toe box and logo, creating a harmonious color palette. A dark indigo toe completes the design, evoking the celestial beauty of the Milky Way galaxy and bringing an otherworldly charm to this striking release.
