An injured ACL may temporarily be keeping Kawhi Leonard off the court, but it won’t stop the Los Angeles Clippers player from debuting fresh basketball sneakers. Leonard, who signed with New Balance in 2019, has prepped a follow-up to his KAWHI “New Money” shoe, aptly named the KAWHI II. Like its predecessor, the new sneaker bears a light green and gold color scheme inspired by stacks of cash.
“To release a second version of a signature shoe together with New Balance is an honor and a privilege,” Leonard said in a press release. “My goal was to be fully immersed in every aspect of the design process to create a shoe that truly reflects me as a person and as an athlete. From the new innovation in the KAWHI II to the inspiration behind the ‘New Money’ colorway, I hope the next generation of athletes strive for excellence on and off the court.”
