Damian Lillard's presence on the basketball court is as dynamic as his sneaker line with adidas. Known for wearing his signature models throughout his games, the Portland Trail Blazers guard has showcased innovation both on and off the court. While the latest in the mainline series is the Dame 8 EXTPLY, Lillard's Dame Certified line, introduced just last year, is to be noticed. Ushering in a fresh look for the upcoming NBA season, the Dame Certified 2.0 is poised to make its mark, especially with the imminent release of the Core Black colorway.
The adidas Dame Certified 2.0 Core Black provides a sleek, streamlined aesthetic that perfectly matches Lillard's no-nonsense approach. Featuring a resilient synthetic leather upper complemented by a breathable mesh base layer, the shoe exudes versatility. Dame logos are strategically placed on the tongue, heel, and insole. A subtle yet vibrant orange pop on the uppermost eyelets breaks the monochromatic tone, adding a dash of intrigue. Below, an all-black sole unit with adidas' signature Bounce cushioning ensures comfort and responsiveness, essential for those quick on-the-court maneuvers.
The adidas Dame Certified 2.0 Core Black will release November 1, 2023, through adidas and select retailers online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $90.
