Editor’s Notes: Nike and Paul George are set to drop another NASA-themed version of the Oklahoma City Thunder player’s signature shoe, the PG 3. This version features a white and gold color scheme and comes in time for the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing.
The first PG 3 NASA had an orange and blue colorway and paid homage to NASA’s Armstrong Building 703. George grew up in Palmdale, California, which is home to a NASA research center, hence the recurring NASA theme on his signature sneakers.
While the first colorway was eye-catching, this version is much more wearable off the court, thanks to its predominantly white look and discreet gold detailing. Check out leaked product imagery above.
