Adidas and Damian Lillard Release D Lillard 2 Uprising Edition

With summer around the corner, adidas and Damian Lillard today drop the D Lillard 2 adidas Uprising edition, a special PE sneaker designed specifically for players competing in adidas’ premier high school basketball tournaments.

Inspired by the primal instinct of the ocean’s most dangerous predator, the adidas Uprising edition takes design cues from a shark’s anatomy with color-shifting scales along the upper, bold red accents and dark matte detailing throughout the canvas. The colorway is a reminder of the hunger, motivation and drive that the superstar Portland Trail Blazer point guard, brings everyday to the court.

The latest adidas D Lillard 2 Uprising edition comes off the heels of the "Fool’s Gold" sneaker that was released back in late March of 2015. Keeping the the same aesthetics as the previous silhouette, this Uprising edition will have a distinguish look compared to the rest of D Lillard 2 sneakers.
Look for the adidas Uprising edition this weekend at adidas Gauntlet Dallas where more than 220 of the top 15, 16 and 17U teams in the country will compete for a spot at the adidas Gauntlet Finale in South Carolina, July 8 and the title of best AAU team of the season.
