SKU: IO9987-100
MSRP: $155 USD
Release Date: December 30
Where to Buy: Nike

Nike has unveiled the Book 1 “Torched,” which serves as the definitive final release for Devin Booker’s debut signature line. This limited edition draws inspiration from Phoenix’s mythology of rising anew from its own ashes and concludes a highly successful run of over 30 distinct Book 1 editions, setting the stage for the upcoming Book 2 lineup.

The sneaker’s design strongly emphasizes the “torched” concept, utilizing a frayed white canvas upper with intentionally distressed, scorched detailing. These realistic burn marks are prominently featured across the toebox, Swoosh, laces, and heel, creating a cohesive narrative of a silhouette that has been through the fire. Adding to the conceptual depth, a unique cut-out hole on the tongue tag reinforces the “torched” theme, while the interior features a “1 of 1996” label, highlighting the pair’s extreme exclusivity.

By choosing this symbolic “burnt” aesthetic for the finale, Nike continues its tradition of ending signature shoe chapters with powerful storytelling that honors the athlete’s journey. Check out the official images of the Nike Book 1 “Torched” above.
