After debuting it during last week’s Christmas Day game, we’re finally learning more about the release details for Russell Westbrook’s latest signature shoe, the Jordan “Why Not?” .5.
Pictured here is the first wave of styles with the four “Raging Grace,” “Childhood,” “Inner City,” and “Hype Music” makeups that are inspired by the meaningful things in Westbrook’s life both on and off the court. Kicking things off is the “Childhood” iteration arriving on March 1, which celebrates the Brodie’s three kids along with representing the next generation. Shortly after is the arrival of the “Raging Grace” colorway hitting shelves on March 15 that celebrates Westbrook’s ferocious on-court play. Rounding out the releases is the music-inspired “Hype Music” makeup dropping on April 5.
The “Why Not?” .5 silhouette features a translucent upper that that’s combined with midfoot bands, an external heel counter, and webbing to complement Westbrook’s quick movements. Cushioning the underfoot is a large-volume Zoom Air unit at the forefoot of the midsole providing energy return and a trail-inspired outsole for maximum traction.
The Jordan “Why Not?” .5 will be released at Jordan.com and at select Jordan Brand retailers starting in March. Grab a detailed look at each pair below.
