Derrick Rose hasn’t played a minute yet this season, but that hasn’t kept his shoe releases from staying on point. Adidas recently unveiled the DRose 3 “Nightmare”, an anti-Christmas colorway — no green and red — inspired by Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas:
The purple, “vertigo” shimmer synthetic leather upper represents the bad dreams opponents have about guarding the 2011 NBA Most Valuable Player. Other features include glow-in-the-dark outsole, black and white speckled midsole and wave patterned black and white laces. The inside of the tongue features 12-24-12 to represent the day this limited edition pair drops.
They also retail for a nightmarish $180, and can be yours on Christmas Eve.
