When he wasn’t putting up 25 points in a convincing win for Oklahoma City Thunder against current NBA champs the Golden State Warriors, small forward Paul George was on the PlayStation Blog writing about his new PSone-inspired sneakers. The gorgeous Nike PG 2.5 x PlayStation Colorways come courtesy of a renewed collaboration between the star, Nike Basketball, and Sony. You may remember the previous, PlayStation 4-style shoes from earlier in the year.

“This time around, I wanted to take the design old school, back to my earliest days of gaming,” he said. “For me – as I’m sure many of you can relate – those memories date back to the original PlayStation. Working with Nike and PlayStation, we focused on bringing that original PlayStation inspiration to life in this new design.”

Some of the features on the sneakers include an illuminating tongue, which has the original four colour PlayStation logo on it. The PlayStation symbols are embossed around the sides, while there’s a strap across the top to lock your tootsies in place. “I’ve been a PlayStation fan ever since I was kid, so I’m excited about continuing to partner with a brand that I grew up loving,” concluded George.

The shoes will be available globally from 1st December, and you’ll be able to find out more about how to buy them via the Nike SNKRS app.
