In partnership with his team at Rigorer, he is set to unveil a brand new signature sneaker, the AR1, just in time for Valentine’s Day. Be sure to keep an eye on our Sneakers news for updates on upcoming releases and exclusive content!
Austin Reaves has been on fire in recent games, taking on the role of the Lakers’ go-to player as LeBron James and Anthony Davis nurse their injuries.
His standout performance came in a thrilling victory over the Boston Celtics, where he scored a game-high 32 points, shooting an impressive 7-10 from beyond the three-point line. Notably, he was sporting his latest creation, the Rigorer AR1 ‘Valentine’s Day’ sneakers, during this remarkable game.
After surprising fans with a Christmas Day sneaker drop, Austin Reaves and the performance footwear brand Rigorer are set to launch a new AR1 colorway exclusively on the global marketplace, KICKS CREW, just in time for Valentine’s Day.
This release marks the seventh addition to his increasingly popular signature line.
The Rigorer AR1 ‘Valentine’s Day’ takes a charming rosy-pink approach to a unique theme for basketball sneakers. The uppers are adorned with swirling pink graphics, while the midsole boasts an elegant white-to-pink gradient near the toe.
The outsoles and midsole TPU plates sport a softer, delicate pink hue, extending through the tongue and logos.
The woven cocoon upper also features contrasting pink swirls over the graphics, adding to its distinctive look.
What truly sets this shoe apart are the finer details, with Rigorer introducing unique designs for the first time. The heel logo showcases a rose graphic that reads “at the moment,” while Cupid’s arrow adorns the shoe’s interior. Pink stitching accents the laces, providing an eye-catching contrast.
A groundbreaking feature of the AR1 line is the removable velcro logos along the upper, a novel addition.
Speaking about his latest release, Austin Reaves said, “As I embark on 2024, I look forward to sharing all the new designs for my signature line with my fans.
This new colorway is more than just a typical Valentine’s release; it represents my passion, dedication, and the love I have for the game.”
These sneakers will be available as part of Austin Reaves’ ongoing partnership with the global sneaker marketplace, KICKSCREW, which is dedicated to expanding the reach of athletes like Reaves and making their footwear accessible to a worldwide audience.
