Before winning his first NBA Championship and becoming a two-time MVP, Giannis Antetokounmpo’s life was initially changed when he tried his first ever smoothie back in 2014. Nike commemorated that moment by serving up the Giannis Immortality “Force Field.”
Recalling Antetokounmpo’s tweet from seven years ago, the shoe takes on a smoothie blend of a white, melon orange and blush pink colorway. Starting off with a bright white mesh base, melon orange-colored laces tie over the top foot with a “Super Smoothie” emblem patched onto the top of the tongue. A cluster of fruits and mini Swooshes embellish the medial side while the main lateral Swoosh is pieced together with a stitched pattern, transparent window, and matte paint detail. The design is sealed off with a blush pink and coral outsole.
The Nike Giannis Immortality “Force Field” is now available on Nike’s website for $80 USD.
