In case you've been livin' under a rock, we're here to update you with everything that's going on in the sports world! Basketball legend Giannis Antetokounmpo made history on his very first season, which exposed his innocence and child-like personality, long before he became the star he is now! The upcoming Nike Freak 2 Taxi Black Metallic Silver shows off features that nod to the Greek freak's famous Taxi story and represents his lifestyle at the same time. If you wanna know more about this Black, Metallic Silver and yellow sneaks, follow FastSoleUK. 

Nike gives these Freak 2 kicks a unique makeover that honours the Basketball star's lifeways and reflects his style on the court! The jet black mesh base offers a neutral backdrop, giving the overlays a perfect canvas. As a result, the detailings stand out flawlessly atop the base. In addition, the bright yellow accents on the midfoot and checkered overlays at the heels mimic old taxi cab detailing. If you're wondering what the relevance this Taxi-inspired make-up has with Antetokounmpo, here's the story.

An incident revealed about the 26-year-old by Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix is what inspired this sneaker. Giannis took a tab to Western Union to send money back to his home country, Greece, back in 2013. However, he hadn't realised that he'd sent almost all the money he had with him at the time. Thus, leaving none left for him to take a return taxi. As a result, he decided to run back to his place, as he had a game to get to. Therefore, this Taxi-inspired sneaker honours this incident of Antetokounmpo's life, along with his personal traits as an athlete.
