While some sleep on the fourth-year guard’s historic success on-court, adidas and Damian Lillard deliver the “Static” colorway, solidifying Dame’s message to all his doubters: it’s just noise.
“I don’t need validation – they’ve seen what I can do out there,” Dame explained. “As a man, I’ve grown to rise above it all and block out the noise. I’ll keep pushing, keep working and soon enough they’ll wake up.”
Constructed with white and black threads that deliver a fuzzing static effect along the upper, the latest D Lillard 2 is a symbol of Dame’s motivation to drown out the noise and reflects his unrelenting focus. The silhouette features black detailing throughout and is paired with white Oak Print accents on the heel cap and lace lock. BOUNCE cushioning delivers lightweight comfort through an all-black midsole that is treated with a white speckled finish. The “Static” edition also features a Continental rubber outsole to ensure premium on-court grip during his patented step-back jumper and explosive drives.
“Static” ($105) drops February 27 at Footlocker, Eastbay and adidas.com.
