Paul George Joins Hot Wheels and Nike on a New PG 6 Shoe
Paul George continues to work in collaboration with Nike but this time around, he adds another collaborative effort to the roster with the likes of Hot Wheels -- the trio delivers a playful new iteration of the PG 6 sneaker model. The nostalgic brand adds its aesthetics across the signature basketball shoes with a bold tonal palette and new accenting details.
Most of the upper are made from a synthetic material along with a bold gradient look that changes from blue to red across the silhouette. This is applied to reflect the Hot Wheels logo most likely as there are reversed Swoosh details at the lateral side of the panels and his number 13 on the medial side of the shoe.
