Nike Giannis Freak 6 “Liam & Maverick” FJ7792-300

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s commitment to family has always been front and center, both for his brothers, fellow hoopers Alex, Kostas and Thanasis, and his own growing nuclear unit. In kind, his famioial ties have been a consistent motif on his signature line, making it no surprise that his sons get their own edition with the Nike Giannis Freak 6 “L+M” or “Liam and Maverick.”

Indeed, the eldest Antetokounmpo siblings are in the spotlight for this pair, with their names emblazoned into the interior tongues on either shoe. To be clear, it’s not a show of favoritism by any means; his youngest daughter, Eva, already checked off her pair a month exactly before this one is anticipated. Outside of that sentimental detail, largely this colorway sticks to the aesthetics we’ve come to expect from Giannis’ sixth, delivering a tri-tone split between aquatic shades throughout the upper and some neon flair with the laser red Swoosh cutting into the midsole.

The Nike Giannis Freak 6 “L+M” / “Liam and Maverick” releases on May 1st, landing in men’s and GS sizing for $140 and $105, respectively. Keep an eye on our Sneaker Release Dates and the “Where To Buy” widget embedded below for direct pick-up links upon arrival.
