The Nike Air Max Rise Supreme has been given matching uniform colors to David West and Brandon Roy. The David West PE sports an away colorway utilizing black leather and patent on the upper along with turquoise and purple contrasts. Roy’s PE follows the simple black/white/red policy to match his team’s uniform. Both shoes feature personal insignia at the back heel to represent both players their own way.

Although there was already a Nike Air Trainer 1 colorway inspired by Portland Trailblazers star Brandon Roy, it wouldn’t be complete without having the pro-baller design his own. Thus, B-Roy created the Nike iD Air Trainer 1 in a purple-inspired colorway with some red and black accents. “FT” is stitched on the side to stand for “free throws” and “Rose City” makes its mark on the back heel because Roy wants to bring a championship home. Flywire technology is implemented in the shoe along with a purple outlined swoosh and purple laces to complete the colorway. Check out the Nike site to watch a thirty-four second video.
