Brandblack and NFL star DeSean Jackson make their new partnership official with the unveil of his signature training shoe, the DJX 1. The flashy and sometimes controversial wide receiver for the Washington Redskins continues to defy convention by signing on with the upstart sneaker brand known for their refreshing performance-meets-fashion aesthetic. That vibe is clearly present on the DJX 1, which features a stylish yet simple silhouette for the lightweight, responsive, and supportive design built to handle the speed and agility of Jackson’s training routine.
The sleek silhouette features a sock-like design that hugs the foot securely, while an injected exoskeleton wraps around the upper to create support and durability without sacrificing breathability. It all sits atop Brandblack’s Jet-Lon foam midsole, which the brand claims offers 20% more rebound than basic EVA foam.
The Brandblack DJX 1 launches September 22nd at Brandblack.com and select retailers.
