New Balance
1 / 5

New Balance and Kawhi Leonard unveiled the Los Angeles Clippers star’s first true signature sneaker ahead of Sunday night’s NBA All Star Game. Kawhi, who shocked the basketball world when he signed for New Balance after his contract with Jordan Brand expired in 2018, had been previously wearing the New Balance OMN1S.

The new sneaker, dubbed “KAWHI,” is Leonard’s first eponymous signature sneaker, previously wearing PE versions of the OMN1S. The KAWHI won’t be available until the fall of this year, though Leonard wore the sneaker during the NBA All Star Game on Sunday night and will likely finish out the season in it as well.

Check out the sneaker in detail above and stay tuned for further release information.
