Nike Book 1 Mowabb
Devin Booker is a craftsman — surgical in his movements, ruthless in his execution. A stutter here, a jab-step there, and before his defender can recover, the shot is already falling. His first signature sneaker, the Nike Book 1, is built with the same precision. Designed for the smoothest operators in the game, it delivers a blend of speed and cushioning, allowing for sharp footwork and effortless elevation. This colorway, inspired by one of Book's favorite ACG sneakers, brings a rugged yet refined aesthetic, bridging the gap between street and hardwood. Whether you're dropping dimes or pulling up from deep, the Nike Book 1 is made for those who move with purpose — and leave defenders guessing.
