The Nike Book 2 “University Red” Recalls A Timeless Air Max 1

Devin Booker knows his Nike history. He sprinted through the archives by way of his Nike Book 1, recalling classics from the ACG Mowabb to the Air Max 95 in an expansive roster of player exclusives. It was thus no surprise that he built off of the inherent Air Force 1 hardware of his original by tacking on the Spiridon, and the colorway options he’s added on top of that foundation have only hardened his status as a true “ball knower” in the realm of footwear.

It’s made us look out for any reference or inspiration anytime a fresh edition comes to light. That’s why the Nike Book 2 Team Bank in “University Red” brings to mind the Nike Air Max 1 of the same title. Of course, those who have been with our coverage of this squad-specific series know that these TB looks are tooled to fit a wide range of uniforms, bringing the silhouette’s performance without clashing with on-court wear. However, it’s hard to erase the ties to Tinker Hatfield’s design knowing Book’s love for the classics, played out with fiery mudguards, mesh backing, and a silver Swoosh to finish.

The Nike Book 2 Team Bank “University Red” is available now via Nike.com, retailing for $145. Grab yours using the links below.
