Nike is set to launch the Giannis Freak 6, the latest signature shoe by Giannis Antetokounmpo, designed to meet the intense demands of athletes on the court, providing speed, stability, and energy return. The shoe features Cushlon 2.0 foam, a forefoot Air Zoom unit, an updated Freakprint outsole, and breathable monomesh in a silhouette tailored to support every player's stride and propulsion.
The Giannis Freak 6 is engineered to match Giannis' intensity on the court, delivering speed, stability, and energy return to athletes who share his relentless pursuit of greatness. The shoe is stop-and-go ready, designed for comfort in every movement with Cushlon 2.0 foam and a forefoot Air Zoom unit that provides a soft landing for dynamic drives to the basket. A TPU midsole and internal containment structure offer lateral stability for all four quarters, and an updated, all-rubber Freakprint outsole delivers traction and responsiveness that allows players to cut with confidence. Lightweight, breathable monomesh keeps things cool, no matter how the game heats up.
The Giannis Freak 6 features several personal touches from Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Roses colorway represents his relationship with his late father, Charles Antetokounmpo, while the bright green from the Naija colorway nods to his high-energy style. These personal elements make the shoe not only functional but also a representation of Giannis' journey and heritage.
Alongside the Giannis Freak 6, Nike is launching a new Immortality 4 silhouette and an apparel collection that includes a Dri-FIT quarter-zip, jersey, jogger, short, and a classic Nike T-shirt. This collection is designed to complement the performance and style of the Giannis Freak 6, providing athletes with a complete athletic wear solution.
The Giannis Freak 6, the new Immortality 4 silhouette, and the fresh apparel collection will be available on nike.com and at select retail partners starting August 16.
