Dwayne Wade's Way of Wade 2 Sells Out!




NEWSFLASH:  Dwayne Wade's Way of Wade 2 sold out within the first hour!  If you haven't heard, Li-Ning launched the Way of Wade 2 yesterday.  This was super big for the Chinese brand because this was the first time American consumers had access to purchase the signature shoe stateside.

Personally, I love the design language of this shoe and the fact that it's made of premium leather instead of synthetic materials as most basketball shoes are these days.  Click the link below to read D-Wades response to the U.S. release.

Li-Ning Way of Wade 2 Design Direction



FIRE!  That's what I have to say about Li-Ning's design direction of D'Wayne Wades new signature shoe.  The name of this unique print is called Dazzle Camo.  It comes from World War 1 when ships used to paint the body of their ships to stand out instead of blending in.  The camo had the ability of tricking the rival ships of it's direction or speed.  This is similar to Wade's play in a NBA game.  You're not sure if he's going to pull up for the jumper, run pass you for a dunk, or dish the rock off to a teammate...deceptive!  Cool story behind the shoe...just can't wait to see it now!
