If Tarzan wore basketball shoes, they’d probably look just like the Nike Book 1 “Safari”. Devin Booker clearly heard the jungle call and answered with some serious style.
This wild sneaker combines the Air Safari’s iconic print with a modern hoop-ready look. It features burnt orange leather, speckled safari overlays, and a black leather base. Toss in plush orange lining for comfort, and you’ve got a beast on the court.
Designed to honor Tinker Hatfield’s 1987 lifestyle classic, Booker’s signature shoe embraces vintage swagger. The bold safari print dominates while the white midsole and black outsole keep things grounded. Zoom Air cushioning ensures your jungle moves stay explosive.
Although Booker didn’t wear these in an NBA game, that hasn’t slowed the hype. The “Safari” Book 1 is turning heads anyway, thanks to its fierce throwback vibes.
Set to release in Fall 2025, the Nike Book 1 “Safari” will be available at select Nike Basketball retailers and Nike.com. They’ll retail for $155 USD, which is way less than an actual safari trip.
Whether you’re dunking or just flexing your fit, this sneaker roars with attitude. Don’t sleep on the wildest chapter yet.
