The iconic sportswear brand, Nike, have unveiled a floating basketball arena on Lake Bled, Slovenia.
The brand collaborated with a local basketball shop, Grosbasket, to host a three-on-three tournament, showcasing the players walking on water – instead of Air.
The scenic lake is inspiration for the new Luka Doncic Jordans, a collaboration with the Slovenian basketball star, making it the perfect backdrop for the release.
The footwear sports an icy-blue tonal palette, in reference to the lake’s stunning waters.
The shoe aims to pay homage to such a truly pristine country, known as “the first nation to be named a ‘Green Destination of the World’ in its entirety”.
The sneakers are designed with 20% recycled materials, adding to their natural credentials.
Yes, fans are completely buoyed by the brand’s innovative designs, styles and colour ways but more importantly, their ability to always keep things cool.
The trainers are available on the Nike website for an icy US$140.
