Elliot Santiago The lights are bright down in Orlando for the NBA bubble games, and players are taking advantage of the moment by busting out some of their newest footwear colorways. One of them being Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell who has taken the liberty of debuting his newest adidas Don Issue 2 signature sneaker on-court. Although an official release date for his newest model has yet to be confirmed, we’re already receiving insight as to what colorways we can expect to see.
Wasting no time in diving into collaborative projects, Mitchell is teaming up with everyone’s go-to crayon brand growing up: Crayola. The artistic company is putting their touch on the Don Issue 2 into three new takes to form the silhouette’s upcoming “Crayon Pack”. Everything from the mesh uppers to the zig-zag mid-foot lines to the chunky midsoles are tonally executed, and will be spun off in yellow, red, and blue colorways. At the bottoms of each offering, you’ll find oversized graphics of actual Crayola branding printed throughout their translucent treading. Take a closer look at each style here below, and expect them to drop via adidas.com come October 2nd.
