Yet another one of Devin Booker’s once-exclusive Nike signature sneakers is making its way to retail and its release is just around the corner.
After news surfaced that Booker’s “Neon” Air Max 95-inspired Nike Book 1 is expected to launch later this year, firmer details are now available for another one of the Phoenix Suns star’s player exclusives. Originally worn by Booker in March 2024, the Nike Book 1 colored to resemble the Nike ACG Air Mowabb “Twine” is set to hit stores a year later.
Like many of the player exclusives worn by Booker, the styling of this Nike Book 1 is inspired by one of the brand’s iconic designs from the past. Playing into Booker’s love of the great outdoors, the shoe gets its colors from one of Nike’s most memorable All Conditions Gear sneakers, the ACG Air Mowabb.
Originally designed by Tinker Hatfield in 1991, the ACG Air Mowabb used an inner bootie reminiscent of the brand’s Air Huarache line and was released in a number of 1990s-styled color combinations. The specific style that inspired the Nike Book 1 is the “Twine” ACG Air Mowabb, which was last released in 2021 and combines shades of Twine, Fusion Red, Club Gold and Teal Charge.
Shifting to the “Mowabb” Nike Book 1, the exact color names have been adjusted, but there’s no doubting the inspiration behind this upcoming release. Its colorway is “Sesame/Black/Bright Mandarin/Smoke Grey/Dusty Cactus/White,” which results in an overall look that is slightly more toned-down than its bold ‘90s inspiration.
Along with the upcoming “Mowabb” and “Neon” styles turning from exclusives to retail releases, Nike has treated fans to a Cortez-inspired version of the Book 1 which uses the colors of the sneaker featured in the iconic film Forrest Gump.
This latest Nike Book 1 “Mowabb” is currently expected to be released in March for a retail price of $140, although it’s yet to appear on Nike’s SNKRS platform. Readers can expect further availability from select Nike Basketball retailers. The sneaker’s style code is IF2406-200.
