Under Armour Micro G Black Ice "Think Pink"

Brandon Jennings’ season may have been over for some time now, but the young Buck is still putting in work in the offseason. He took a break at the gym to show off this new colorway of the Under Armour Micro G Black Ice. This particular pair is designed to raise awareness about Breast Cancer. Complementing the bright pink patent leather toe are the upper underlay, stitching and outsole. A large pink ribbon is emblazoned on the heel. Hopefully this one will release and benefit a charitable cause.
