Must-Have New Signature Basketball Shoes if You’re a Baller!

With the All-Star weekend right around the corner, basketball kicks take center stage. From performance to style and storytelling, there’s a lot to appreciate. That’s why we decided to take a look at some of the upcoming signature basketball shoes! Although some kicks could overshadow others at times, we still wanna give them all equal amounts of love. So if you wanna take a look at the stars of the All-Star weekend, check this out. But if you’re already familiar with those, read on for some more performance must-haves!

Signature Basketball Shoes You’ll Wanna Buy Soon!

Nike Ja 1 – Ja Morant’s First Signature Basketball Shoes

Ja Morant is everything Nike could want in a prospect deal: the skills, popularity, etc… And well, his signature sneaker release was only a matter of time. So, Ja is actually the 23rd basketball athlete to sign with Nike since Jordan paved the way in the 80s. And with this endorsement, Nike is pushing their basketball division into Gen-Z territory. Although Nike and Ja Morant sealed the deal in 2019, we didn’t get teasers until 2022.

And now, we finally know what’s coming our way with the Nike Ja 1 unveiled. Although the Swoosh unveiled multiple colorways in their press conference like ‘Day One’, ‘Chimney’, ‘Trivia PEs’, and ‘Scratch’. We can expect the purple Nike Ja 1 Day One to drop in April 2023 for $110. It’s worth noting that the retail price is pretty low in comparison to other kicks. Let’s just hope that it doesn’t come at the expense of material!

Jordan Luka 1 ‘Safari’

Jordan Brand announced that Luka Doncic was joining the Jordan family back in December 2019. However, his first signature basketball shoes didn’t hit retailers till July 2022. And in 2023 we’ll enjoy the latest and wildest colorway of the silhouette! Jordan Luka 1 ‘Safari’ is a subtle nod to Tinker Hatfield’s signature elephant print that he introduced in the 80s. And if we’re gonna get into the specifics, the kicks are a more direct nod to 2002’s Atmos Nike Air Max 1 Safari! If you like nice tributes like this one, make sure you catch the drop on February 20, 2023, for $110. And at an average resale value of $286, the pair doesn’t sound too bad on all fronts!

New Balance Kawhi III – Signature Basketball Shoes Don’t Have to Be Nike

Although Nike mainly dominates the basketball court according to data, other brands still have a presence. And in 2023, New Balance and Kawhi Leonard are giving us a pretty dope pair of performance kicks. The NB Kawhi III ‘Alpha Predato’ will feature a black and white upper with hits of blood-like red! These babies will drop on February 10, 2023, on Newbalance.com and will retail for $160. So make sure you don’t miss that drop!

Jordan Zion 2 Barely Green – GS Kicks Making Adults Jealous

So this silhouette launched with the Zion 2 Voodoo colorway in honor of New Orleans. Moreover, a Zion x Jordan 1 dropped in the same colorway! From then on, we got multiple colorways, but the one we’re about to show you is certainly one of the best. The new Jordan Zion 2 Barely Green looks pretty cool with a mainly white upper. However, popping hits of mint, volt, barely green, and hot pink complete the look!

Unfortunately, the upcoming colorway will be a Grade School-exclusive! But well, you’re lucky if you find a size that fits. You can expect the kicks to drop sometime during Spring 2023, for $90. So if you, or someone you love, are looking for a pair of basketball kicks, this is a good one!

Wanna Cop Any of These Babies or Others?

Although some of these are not as hype as other sneakers, you’d still do well to run a sneaker bot on drop day. You know, better safe than sorry! Moreover, a sneaker bot can help you cop more exclusive kicks when the time comes, and by then you’d be ready and confident in your setup. You could always check out some tips and tricks in this botting guide!

And if you’re looking for the right sneaker bot for you, don’t go too far. NSB is right here for you, and it supports all the sites you could possibly need! But that’s not all, because NSB3 is right around the corner, and with it, we’re getting some amazing upgrades. If you thought that NSB kicked ass on Shopify before, you’ll love the new module. No more manual Captcha solving either, because AI will do it for you. And finally, a brand new Nike SNKRS module will help you get your favorite Js in no time! So make sure you get your copy today to live the full experience! IYKYK
