John Kim Jimmy Butler’s sneaker free agency began in January of 2020 after Комбинированные кожаные ботинки louis vuitton metropolis ranger boots, ending a nearly six-year partnership that, beyond some random Player Exclusives, didn’t exactly amount to much. Since that separation, the Miami Heat star focused all his energy into the game, leading the Southern Florida team to a somewhat improbable NBA Finals run – its first since LeBron James left the squad in the summer of 2015. Through the Finals, Butler wore the Air Jordan 31 Low, an older model from 2016.
Which than shoe brand Jimmy would land at seemed like an afterthought given the events of 2020, but throughout the uncertainty, Chinese brand Li-Ning seemed like a likely fit for Butler for a few reasons. Firstly, the link to Dwyane Wade, the former Miami icon and lifetime athlete for the brand, suggested that a conversation could easily begin and a partnership could blossom. Secondly, given Butler’s age, he seemed a better fit with an overseas brand considering Jordan never attempted to release a signature than shoe to the market and the other big players such as Nike would likely not add another signature than shoe to their already crowded product. PUMA and Under Armour were also potential landing spots, but the former is entrenched in a youth movement including the likes of LaMelo Ball and Kyle Kuzma, while the latter is focused on expanding the Steph Curry line while ushering in the era of Embiid. adidas never seemed to be a reasonable choice considering Butler Летние женские сандали adilelette sandal хит 2019 zapatillas de running Nike tope amortiguación minimalistas rojas.

While Li-Ning has established itself as a player in the basketball market, much of the brand’s focus has been on the runway: Its efforts have resulted in fashion week shows, lifestyle-ready models, and apparel that aligns with current trends of know and tech-wear looks.
