There’s a fine line between a Santa suit covered in soot after the big man shimmied down the chimney to drop off presents and a lump of coal sitting in the bottom of a fuzzy red stocking hung above the mantelpiece. But while they might have the same black-spotted red look, one represents the nice list, and the other, well, the other is for the naughty kids.
Devin Booker’s Lump of Coal
Nike has been focused on the naughty list this year, starting with a Kobe 6 Protro covered in coal black with purple and neon green accents. From there, we got our first preview of the Naughty List Pack, featuring a zippered upper on the Nike Sabrina 4 with black smudges across a cheery red upper. Now, the zip-up pack is adding a Book 2 in the same charcoal style.
Starting with a multi-color upper like the cover on Grandma’s couch, the color-changing pair features a mix of red and black that shifts with the light. A black zipper panel with a red pull tab unveils a black tongue and laces with a green metallic Book logo on the tongue. More black is added to the Swoosh and midsole, with red on the outsole to match the Naughty hang tag, bringing it all together.
