SALT LAKE CITY — Basketball shoes themed around a kids movie franchise might seem like a very niche combination, but youngsters looking for such a combo now have friends in Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell and Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard, formerly of Weber State.
The two All-Stars both have shoe deals with Adidas, and Thursday the company officially made for sale special “Toy Story”-themed kicks in each player’s line.
Mitchell’s shoe is part of the D.O.N. Issue #2 line and is centered around the character Woody, with a denim upper, Woody graphics on the tongue and a “snake in my boot” print on the collar.
