More about the newly designed Adidas Exhibit Select shoes

Many casual sports fans may not be aware, but the German sportswear giant is making significant progress in women's basketball as the brand recently launched its most advanced and newly developed Adidas Exhibit shoe.

Hailey Van Lith, an NCAA basketball standout and Adidas athlete, participated in the company's first campaign to introduce the fresh design. The Exhibit Select is created to bring together the world of basketball with an array of new footwear products appropriate for a variety of playing techniques, to inspire the coming generations of budding hoopers to step up their game.

Exhibit Select promises to redefine the game, reinforcing Adidas' pledge of upgrading the women's division. The Adidas Exhibit Select includes groundbreaking technology that caters exclusively to the female athlete's foot by channeling vital insights from the Adidas WNBA team plus hand-selected focus group discussions from across the world.

The Adidas Exhibit Select features a plush neoprene bootie top and a low-to-the-ground rebound padding system for on-court precision and sturdiness.

The new shoe, which was tested by actual women and great athletes, exemplifies Adidas Basketball's concept that "Basketball is a sisterhood." It represents the brand's dedication to driving the women's game ahead and putting it in an improved state for future generations of young hoopers.

Adidas' all-star lineup didn't stop with Van Lith. Throughout the 2023 WNBA season, the Exhibit Select will be sported by Adidas' elite squad of athletes, notably Candace Parker, Erica Wheeler, Aliyah Boston, Kahleah Copper, Nneka Ogwumike, and Chiney Ogwumike.

Beginning in July, all players will be provided with their own exclusive player-edition hue. Team colors make their on-court appearances on July 15, August 1, and October 1, 2023.

Parker will make her All-Star Weekend debut with her trademark player-edition "Game Royalty" on July 15 as a component of the impending Candace Parker Collection: Part III with Dick's Sporting Goods. This anticipated general release will give supporters and athletes the first chance to get their hands on the basketball sneakers.
