Nike and Devin Booker are gearing up to launch the highly anticipated Nike Book 1 “Sunset” on November 15th, 2024, via SNKRS and Nike Basketball retailers, retailing for $140. This striking edition draws inspiration from the vibrant colors of a Phoenix sunset, blending hues that are synonymous with both the Arizona sky and Booker’s team, the Phoenix Suns.
Design Breakdown: Sunset Vibes with a Touch of Court Purple
Unlike the ultra-limited orange version released at UNKWN Miami last December, the Book 1 “Sunset” leans into a full Phoenix Suns-inspired color palette, a first for Booker’s signature line. The sole stands out with a warm gradient featuring pink, yellow, and orange—a nod to Phoenix’s scenic skies during sundown and the Suns' iconic color scheme.
The upper is crafted entirely in canvas with a deep “Court Purple” base, adding a balance to the vibrancy below. Subtle “Total Orange” detailing on the tongue branding and inner lining further connects the colorway to the Suns’ aesthetics. A splash of pink “Chapter One” text on the heel rounds out the sneaker, adding a personal nod to the rising star’s journey.
Built for Style On and Off the Court
Devin Booker has consistently emphasized his desire for a versatile sneaker that holds its own both on and off the court. True to that vision, the Book 1 “Sunset” offers a sophisticated yet sporty look, with just enough pop to turn heads without overwhelming with excess flash. The omission of a heel pull-tab also reinforces the streamlined, minimalist style of this edition.
Mark your calendars for the November 15th drop date. As Holiday 2024 nears, the Nike Book 1 “Sunset” will be available in men’s sizing on SNKRS and select Nike Basketball retailers. For those interested in adding a touch of Phoenix-inspired style to their rotation, this Book 1 release is one not to miss!
