Timely as ever, Nike delivers an NBA Draft Lottery-inspired Air Edge 270 just days after it was announced that the New Orleans Pelicans will select the number one overall pick in this year’s Draft.
Taking design cues from Charles Barkley’s rather famous CB 94 silhouette, the Air Edge 270 sports an adjustable lacing system and booty lining to provide a secure, personalized fit. Thematically, this iteration features an envelop graphic on its side with the 1, 2 and 3 cards poking out, while the insole displays a collection of numbered lottery balls bouncing around. The model is then dressed in a black-and-white colorway with a hit of red on the top lockdown strap and a blue Air 270 sole unit — a possible homage to LeBron’s infamous draft day suit.
The Nike Air Edge 270 "Draft Lottery" is currently available only at Foot Locker for $160 USD.
In other footwear-related news, LeBron and John Elliott are set to drop a murdered-out Icon QS later this month.
