You may spot him wearing rival colors from time to time as he expands his already formidable PE roster onto his second signature shoe, but it’s once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat when it comes to Devin Booker. The Michigan native always finds his way back to his alma mater in some form or fashion, be it via exclusive wear for himself or current Kentucky athletes, or for public colorways.

Indeed, a total of three Kentucky pairs graced the Book 1, with a “Blue Blood” colorway hitting shelves midway through its market run. It’s no shock that the Nike Book 2 returns to the same creative well, as retailer shots of the “Must Be The Denim” hit the newswire. The material overhaul speaks for itself, a hardy shell applied wall-to-wall before splaying into team colors on the sole unit, pull tabs, and laces. In a returning touch, the tongue tag delivers a throwback line drawing of the Wildcat himself, an edgy close to an edition that leans simplistic overall.

As mentioned above, the Nike Book 2 “Must Be The Denim” is set for a March 20th release, retailing for $145. Catch detailed product images below and watch our Sneaker Release Dates hub for direct pick-up links once this pair touches down.
