Book 1 Leather "Python"

An ode to one of Devin Booker's favorite offcourt kicks, this special Book 1 has an allover snakeskin leather upper with a python texture. Its Air Zoom cushioning combines with Cushlon foam to help him slither and strike on the court, leaving even the most vicious defenders helpless.

Cool Book
The exterior is pure Book style with a workwear-inspired canvas for extra durability, while the suede collar and real leather on the forefoot provide more reinforcement and a familiar, soft feel for immediate comfort. The heel tab is inspired by the spine of a book, with numbers referencing chapters in an ongoing story.

Control and changes of direction
A Zoom Air unit on the upper heel is designed to provide speed and responsiveness for taking off on the floor and stopping suddenly, as Book does in his twisting two-foot leap towards the basket.

Stop and pin
The reinforced plastic plate on the top of the midfoot helps keep the foot stable during sudden movements such as instant stops, Book-style twists and quick-change direction on the parquet floor. A sturdy plastic side cage adds even more stability.

Shoot to the max
The multi-directional herringbone pattern on the outsole provides traction and grip ideal for lateral cuts and quick changes of directions.

Full throttle foam
Soft, responsive, full-length foam can help you keep running and sprinting without sacrificing comfort.
