Overview
- Maxey revealed the New Balance Maxey v1 in a GQ exclusive hours before tip-off, then wore it in a 109-87 Play-In win over the Magic that secured the No. 7 seed.
- He led Philadelphia with 31 points and six assists in the on-court debut, turning a product reveal into a statement game.
- The low-top is built for speed with a suede and synthetic upper, a wavy black-and-white design, the classic New Balance N on the side, and his name on the tongue.
- He becomes only the second New Balance athlete with a signature basketball line after Kawhi Leonard, having joined the brand in 2023.
- Maxey called the moment special and said he shed tears when he learned of it, and he told reporters the shoe is slated for an October release at $130.
