[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This marked my 6th Book 1. The quality and comfort are excellent for balling or all day wear. I’m very impressed with this one and love the leather vs the cloth on other versions.

Book 1 'Decade'
Basketball Shoes
Play-off master classes, 70-pointers, game-winners. Book has become one of the game's greats, all while proudly wearing the orange, purple and white. This Book 1 celebrates his decade run in the Valley of the Sun with a leather upper and orange Swoosh logo. The aged midsole speaks to the 10 years since his arrival, with his No. 1 on the heel. To top it off, the tongue label inspired by his time at the Phoenix Suns completes the vintage vibe.

Book smooth
The outside is pure Book, with a workwear-inspired upper that adds durability, while genuine leather across the forefoot provides more reinforcement and a familiar, plush, broken-in feel out of the box.
Stop and go
A top-loaded Air Zoom unit in the heel provides a measure of responsive speed when taking off in the open floor and coming to sudden halts.
Plant and pivot
A top-loaded midfoot strong plastic plate helps keep your foot stable when making sudden movements like sharp plants, Book-like pivots and jabs in the post and opportunistic cuts. A strong plastic sidewall cage adds even more stability.
Cut hard
The multi-directional, herringbone-like pattern gives you sticky traction that's ideal for lateral cuts and quick changes in movement.
Full-go foam
The soft, responsive full-length foam can help you keep running and cutting in comfort.

Decade
Bookclub - 06 Aug 2025
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my fourth Book 1s. Right now my favorite sneakers to play in. Simple design, materials used mold to your feet and cushion and court feel are perfect.
