Giannis Antetokounmpo hit a home run with his first shoe. The Zoom Freak 1’s were a massive success. The number of colorways available lets people’s creativity run well with them. The ‘Coming to America’ editions were awesome too. Then which helped draw even more awareness and attention to the shoe, multiple college basketball programs also wore the Zoom Freak 1s. With the shoe being about a year old, it is time for the second edition. Giannis teased the idea of the next version on his Instagram page last week. A leak came out yesterday debuting one first of the Zoom Freak 2. Picture courtesy of Eric Woodyard.

Apparently, I’m behind the times with these shoes. This website dedicated to sneakers had leaks in late May. Regardless, it is the next phase of Giannis’ the businessman versus the basketball player. It is reported that Antetokounmpo will be donning the Zoom Freak 2’s when basketball gets going again in a couple of weeks.

My review from a guy who isn’t a sneakerhead. They look heavy. Maybe that’s the picture, but the shoe looks like it carries a lot of weight. The designs are cool in the shoe featured, but I don’t know if that’s truly needed. I prefer the black with blue much better. Let me know your thoughts!
