YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS…
With just .9 seconds remaining on the clock, Damian Lillard drained a three-pointer at the buzzer to the tune of a sold-out Portland crowd that upset the Houston Rockets in Game 6 on May 3, 2014. Dame has since earned the reputation of taking over in the clutch and to honor the moments he lives for, adidas unveils the Dame Time edition of the D Lillard 2.
“I’ve always practiced game-winning shots since I was a kid. My brother and I used to count down the finals seconds, and we wouldn’t leave the hoop until we made it,” Dame explained. “It’s a routine that’s helped shape my mentality in those final moments of a game. I’ll just point to the watch, and you know what time it is.”
Dame Time displays a tonal shot clock mosaic on a sharp red upper and embraces design cues from disappearing minutes in crunch time to reveal the iconic .9 seconds. Matching the ice in his veins, the latest D Lillard 2 also features iced out accents along the outsole and heel branding while gold hits on the lace tips and eyelets cap off the buzzer beating tribute.
Dame Time is already available in leading adidas stores and retail partners for P5,995.
