Updated January 25th, 2024: Official images of Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Nike Zoom Freak 5 “Through My Eyes” have been uploaded.
Nike Basketball recently unveiled the first images of their new Nike Zoom Freak 5, featuring a color scheme reminiscent of Travis Scott’s upcoming Elkins Jordan 1 low.
While it might be a stretch to directly connect the two, it’s not uncommon to see popular lifestyle models influencing performance footwear, as seen in several of Devin Booker’s recent signature Player Exclusives.
The edition of the Giannis Antetokounmpo shoe is defined by its vibrant yellow mesh upper. This is offset by a blue Swoosh that transitions from solid to a speckled design as it extends from the upper to the midsole. The shoe is further accentuated with a lighter baby blue on the tongue and heel, harmonizing with the multi-hued blue patterned outsole.
As of now, there’s no set release date for these shoes, but they’re expected to be available soon in both men’s and grade school sizes as Nike continues its rollout of new basketball shoe colorways for the new year.
