NBA star Paul George has declared his love for PlayStation in the form of a new basketball shoe.
Called the PG 2, the limited-edition shoe was the result of a collaboration between Nike and PlayStation. George debuted the shoe during Saturday's game between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
George, a forward for the Thunder, is an avid gamer and considers himself one of "one of the biggest gamers in the NBA." Here's how he described his love for PlayStation in a news release about the new shoe:
The PG 2 has a few clever PlayStation-themed touches, like a light-up tongue that flashes George's logo on one shoe and the PlayStation logo on the other.
A button on the inside of the sneaker turns the lights on and off, and when you press it, it'll pulse like a PlayStation DualShock controller, according to Engadget.
Plus, the eyelets are the same colors as a PlayStation controller - red, pink, blue, and green - and the sock liner of the shoe features a special dynamic starry theme that anyone who buys the shoe will be able to download for their PlayStation 4.
Here's a closer look at the shoe:
The PG 2 will cost $110, according to Engadget, and goes on sale February 10.
