Have you peeped Russell Westbrook?s next signature shoe? Recently revealed by Jordan Brand, the Jordan Why Not .5 was worn by Brodie over the weekend when his Lakers faced off against the Brooklyn Nets.
Below you will get an official look at the Jordan Why Not .5 in the lead ?Inner City? colorway which as designed in collaboration with Westbrook?s fashion label, Honor the Gift. This colorway celebrates Westbrook’s Los Angeles roots and how self-belief can help anyone reach their dreams. You may have also noticed that for this model, Jordan Brand dropped the ?Zer0? portion of the shoe’s name that was used in his previous signature shoes.
The Jordan Why Not .5 was designed to look like a trail running shoe thanks to its rugged utility look. It features a translucent material on the upper to complement Westbrook?s quick movements, while midfoot bands, an external heel counter, and webbing all work together to keep his foot in place. It also comes with a large-volume Zoom Air unit at the forefoot of the midsole for energy return atop a trail-inspired outsole for maximum traction.
Current reports have the Jordan Why Not .5 Inner City releasing sometime during Spring 2022 at select retailers and Nike.com. It will also release alongside designed matching apparel that includes a jacket, hoodie, t-shirt, and tearaway pants. Thoughts on the Jordan Why Not .5?
