A new version of Austin Reaves’ signature sneaker will soon drop
This season was a bit of a reality check for Austin Reaves. After he was a revelation last season while emerging as a valuable player, his production dropped a bit while opposing teams exposed him quite often on the defensive end this year.
Still, the 2023-24 didn’t do much to put a dent in Reaves’ overall reputation. While the hype surrounding him has died down, it’s clear he’s still a good player. The Los Angeles Lakers guard increased his scoring and assists averages while shooting 48.6% from the field and 36.7% from 3-point range in the regular season.
He still has his signature sneaker with China-based Rigorer, and it is about to be released in a new colorway that will honor his Arkansas upbringing, as well as his love of another sport: golf.

Back in December, Reaves became a stakeholder in Rigorer, which makes it seem as if he will be with the company for a while.
This new colorway will drop this Saturday.
