Hornets star LaMelo Ball and owner Michael Jordan both won NBA rookie of the year. Now they have something else in common.
Each man has his own signature shoe.
Thirty-seven years after the first Air Jordan shoe was released, Puma announced Ball’s signature shoe, the MB.01. The shoe will be available Dec. 1 at Puma.com and Foot Locker, Champs, Footaction and Eastbay stores on online sites.
The MB.01 is PUMA’s first signature shoe and comes three years after the brand re-entered the basketball category. And Ball helped design it, down to have the word “Rare” on the bottom — which the company says describes Ball’s talent.
