Nike Zoom Rookie LWP “Eggplant”

Posted: 07 Sep 2011 01:11 PM PDT

Nike Zoom Rookie LWP "Eggplant"

We have spotted a ton of intriguing Nike Zoom Rookie LWP colorways since its debut on the web earlier this summer. Up to this point, many will agree that the “Memphis Express” colorway stands above the rest; however, is the newly-surfaced Nike Zoom Rookie LWP “Eggplant” the new must-have colorway of this shoe? Recently, this shoe was revealed by NSW Basketball Footwear & Apparel Design Lead Marc Dolce. It features a scheme similar to that seen on the “Binary Blue” pair seeing that it possesses a pearly, Foamposite upper with multiple, black hints. To finish it off, this shoe is complimented with a translucent, blue tinted outsole.

This pair is set in mostly brown leather, which is accented with white hits on the three-stripe logo, and midsole. This pair also features red cloth accents on the heel panel, tongue and tongue tab.
