Ding, dong! No, it will not be a question of a new Knicks craze on the free-agent market in these lines but of a partnership which is shaking up the basketball shoe market in France and everywhere in the world. Indeed, the friends of Tarmak have just unveiled the second collection of sneakers as part of their collaboration with the NBA. Be careful, it’s not like Scott Perry’s choices this summer, it shines brightly!
THE 2 TARMAK X NBA COLLECTION IS AVAILABLE NOW ON DECATHLON.FR
A little over a year ago, Tarmak shook up the basketball world by announcing the signing of a long-term partnership with the NBA. On the program, pumps and quality textiles in the colors of our favorite franchises, as well as accessories and life-size basketball hoops to hit big chasedown blocks against the board at the bottom of the garden (we have the right to dream of a little). After the success of the first collection, we expected the sequel like season 2 of a good Netflix series. The first teasers began to fall during the Free Agency’s big live on TrashTalk’s Twitch channel this Thursday as well as on the northern brand’s social networks, but it was this Friday, July 1 that the new models were revealed. in broad daylight by officially joining the shelves of all Decathlon stores in France and beyond, not to mention the website of the favorite brand of the French in 2019 and 2020, decathlon.fr. And because that’s what interests us the most, we immediately move on to the design of the pairs with a little masterclass alert.
The choice of franchises fell on six behemoths, all present in the Playoffs in 2022… Woops, that was before the Lakers completely changed their season to spend the month of April in Cancun. Still, the biggest fanbases should enjoy themselves, between the Boston Celtics, the Brooklyn Nets, the Chicago Bulls, the Golden State Warriors, the Los Angeles Lakers and the Miami Heat. A nice range of teams and colors which should also allow you to find the perfect combination to match with your Sunday uniform. Each franchise has its own design and identity, to respect the history of the institution and reinvent it at the same time. In the first collection, the South Beach team colorway was a top seller. This time, we would put a small coin on the neon green of the Celtics. Between their recent journey to the NBA Finals and this little fruity and tangy taste that emerges from the pair, our gaze is almost hypnotized. On the side of the 2022 champions, we find the tasty color code of the City Edition jersey in homage to Oakland and the epic We Believe in 2007. Special mention also for the model dedicated to Miami which just makes us want to dive head first in a swimming pool to refresh us a little in this period of high heat.
This year, the Tarmak design team has gone up a gear again to bring us an all-new design that smells like the NBA while delivering the most technical model in the range. The SE900 NBA 2022 has been designed taking into account all customer reviews of previous models to continue to win on comfort. The dynamism of the pair is also there with the TMK blade technology which allows an immediate recovery to launch transitions at the speed of the Warriors. As for grip, the outsole has been reworked to aid grip when changing direction if you have a Kyrie Irving game. Good news for non-licensees who also want to cop the pair, they are just as well suited to indoor practice as on the asphalt of outdoor courts thanks to the grip of their soles. The adult model is available from 37 to 48 but children have not been forgotten since the SE900 Junior (from size 34) has inherited all the main design lines of the adult version. The components and all the technical characteristics of this junior version have been adapted to the needs and morphology of children and there is a chance that the next Tony Parker or Victor Wembanyama will walk around with Tarmak on their feet next season.
Tarmak and the NBA solidify their partnership with an all-new collection of refreshing basketball shoes that are sure to hit the nail on the head with fans. If you got this far before clicking on decathlon.fr, we give you back the magic link to get an eyeful on your favorite color. We will have to stay connected because our friends from the North of France still have a few surprises in store for us.
