Determination. Passion. A will to win. Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell embodies these traits on the court night in and night out. His signature kicks, the adidas D.O.N. Issue 1 kids’ basketball shoe, take a page right out of the comic books and embody Mitchell’s superhuman ability to own the hardcourt. Shop the latest release in the Solar Yellow colorway in-store or online at Hibbett | City Gear. This new Solar Yellow palette draws inspiration from the design of a fire engine, along with the Utah Jazz’s City Edition uniforms.
Though the Denver Nuggets originally drafted Mitchell with the 13th overall pick, thanks to a trade, he moved to the Utah Jazz where he now plays. In his first season, Mitchell earned a spot on the NBA All-Rookie First Team and took home the gold and the 2018 Slam Dunk Contest.
These adidas sneakers are extremely lightweight and celebrate the journey of Mitchell’s rise from a young college kid at Louisville to a superstar in the making, while also reflecting his determination to succeed. The herringbone-patterned rubber outsole delivers added traction to help you make those lightning-fast and decisive cuts in the paint. A propulsion clip on the shoe’s side provides exceptional lateral support for dynamic moves and crossovers, while a flexible bounce midsole gives wearers instant step-in comfort and a cushioned, responsive ride.
Mitchell’s basketball shoes also come with some seriously cool details. The Issue 1 features a bright Solar Yellow colorway, which covers the upper and midsole. Find Core Black accents embellishing the shoe’s outsole, lateral and medial sides, and sock liner; meanwhile, Active Red hits come into play at the heel and upper.
The adidas D.O.N. Issue 1 Solar Yellow basketball shoes may not have you winning slam dunk contests, but they’ll get you in the paint in comfort. Snag a pair of this must-have collectible adidas basketball shoe in grade-school kids’ sizes at Hibbett | City Gear.
