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.

Simply buy a bag (or a bundle of them) fill it up, mail it back, and Trashie will ensure those items never make it to landfills, rerouting them to third-party retailers Trashie individually vets for compatibility. That means your old T-shirt, depending on its condition, could end up going to someone in need or being broken down to create carpet padding or pet bed filling, among other things. You earn exactly $30 in TrashieCash for each bag you send back, which you can redeem for deals — direct cash equivalent or a certain percentage off — to buy yourself new things from your favorite brands.
