It’s about time we got a detailed look at the PG 1. Paul George’s first signature basketball model with Nike will be releasing in the near future, as lead designer Tony Hardman took to Instagram to tease a look at the debut colorway known as the Nike PG 1 Pre-Heat with the caption ‘You really have to hold these to understand’. While Hardman could be hinting at just how lightweight the PG 1 could be, maybe he’s making an overall statement of the quality or the time and effort that went into creating this sleek silhouette.
While the Nike PG 1 “2K” won’t be releasing (or if it does it definitely won’t see a widespread general release) the Nike PG 1 Pre-Heat offers up a bevy of features sure to please, and all for the price point of just $110 USD. A synthetic leather pairs well with bolstered mesh on the toecap. An iridescent multi-color Swoosh matches the unique Zoom-laden outsole underneath. The traction pattern definitely stands out while a huge Zoom Air unit hits the forefoot for an explosive first step.
There’s no word yet on the PG 1 Pre-Heat release date, but we’ll be sure to keep you updated right here on Sneaker News.
