Austin Reeves and Rigorer are Teaming up With Cincinnati’s Smith League Pro-Am for a Collab Colorway

Austin Reeves and the Los Angeles Lakers are on vacation. After a four-game sweep from the Thunder that saw Reeves argue with refs and LeBron’s future swung into limbo once again, the Lake Show is ready to hit the lakeside. Beyond boats and recovery, the summer is when we get to see pros take it back to the playground, hooping with amateurs on pro-am circuits like The Drew League. In Cincinnati, Ohio, the Smith League has been holding it down for the Midwest every off-season.

The Smith League x Rigorer AR 3 is a collab colorway made for the Cincy hoops league, splitting Reeves’ latest signature shoe with Rigorer into a bright, asymmetric mix of pink and blue. On the left shoe, a monochrome pink upper is matched with a blue sole and sockliner, and on the right shoe, the colors switch, with blue splashed across the upper and pink on the midsole and internal paneling.

Smith League branding is added to the top of the tongue and the insoles on both shoes in black and white bubble letters, while Reeves’ number 15 sits on the tongue stabilizer and his sharp-shooting sniper crosshairs remain around the top lace loop. If you’re going to show up to play in a tournament game with shoes this bright on, you better get buckets.

As of now, we’ve only seen The Smith League x Rigorer AR 3 in quick previews, so we don’t have a release date or retail price just yet, but expect more details soon. For the latest Austin Reeves Rigorer news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
