Giannis Antetokounmpo has cemented himself as one of the best basketball players in the entire world and when you’re that good, you typically get your very own signature sneaker with a brand such as Nike. Well, that’s exactly what he has as in 2019, the Nike Zoom Freak 1 was revealed to the world. The sneaker was a huge success and proved to be a budget model with some fun aesthetics. With this success in mind, Giannis and Nike have been working on a second sneaker in the line called the, you guessed it, Nike Zoom Freak 2.

Thanks to the Instagram account @koala_hsh, we now have some of the most detailed photos yet of what this shoe will look like. As you can see, this first colorway will have a heavy Milwaukee Bucks influence. The upper is green, black, and white, while also featuring a sort of floral pattern. You can see “Freak” branding on the tongue as well as the number 34 on the medial side. This is a huge departure from the first model although it looks fun all the same.

A release date has not yet been set so stay tuned for updates as we will be sure to bring them to you.

Action Bronsonbecame a proud papa last year for the third time, this time welcoming a baby boy to the team. Of course, as any new dad who happens to be a sneakerhead will typically do, the Queens-bred emcee decided to blessed the child with a pair of a classic signature shoes out of the Nike vault.

Rocking an infant-sized pair of the Nike Air Max CW, now known as the Air Max Sensation, baby Bron became the absolute envy of fans everywhere who could only gawk over the deadstock kicks and the cuteness overload of seeing his pops gush over his offspring’s kick game. “BABY BRONSON SHOE GAME SILLY,” Action Bronson said while sharing the pic on Instagram (seen above), following up with a few sneaker stats by writing, “BABY MAX CHRIS WEBBER 1995.” You’d be hard pressed to find these anywhere, vintage or in-store alike, and ironically the only pair we could find was a deadstock size 4.5c pair over on Roots BK, which has since been sold. We think we might know who bought that pair.

Congrats again on the newborn, Action Bronson! Check out his music video below for “Baby Blue” featuring Chance The Rapper, because, well, babies:

Following news that a “Year Of The Rat” rendition of Shaquille O’Neal’s classic Shaqnosis sneaker will be released next week, Reebok decided to give fans of the silhouette even more of a treat by officially dropping the OG colorway.

Coming in its original Black & White colorway, this revamped edition of the Shaqnosis is pretty much identical to the design that sneaker designer Jonathan Morris cooked up for sneakerheads 25 years ago. The Hexalite material found in the forefoot syncs up with the Ultra Hexalite material in the heel to give you ultimate cushioning for all occasions, whether you’re driving down the court or driving to a club that’s lax with their dress code. Either way, getting your retro basketball sneaker steez up and running should be no issue if you plan on adding this grail to your collection. Just make sure you balance out the hypnotizing structure on the upper with a solid color in your ‘fit — chill with the polka dot prints!

Shop the Reebok Shaqnosis in OG Black & White right now for $140 USD at select retailers and online. Take a look at a few more pictures of the spiraling silhouette from different angles below:
