adidas Unveils Donovan Mitchell’s D.O.N. Issue #6 At All-Star Weekend

adidas don issue 6 blue black 2

The adidas DON Issue 6, Donovan Mitchell’s sixth signature shoe with adidas, was officially unveiled in Indianapolis at a private event during All-Star Weekend. Debuting alongside Damian Lillard’s DA Stiefel Black Nubuc WL Lace Boots, the DON 6 is primed for its first in-game appearance during the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, February 18th as Mitchell was voted as a starter for the Eastern Conference.

Juxtaposed with Anthony Edwards’ AE1 and Lillard’s Dame 9, the D.O.N. Issue 6 communicated a clear design language that relies on a inner boot/outer shell approach. While the AE1 features a warped honeycombed cage and the Dame 9 has a solid TPU exterion the DON Issue 6 utilizes a mesh-built cage that gently reveals the three stripes logo beneath. Spida’s emblem appears at the pull-tab on the tongue, while DON is heat-pressed onto the loop at the heel.

As of the publishing of this article, firm release details have not yet been revealed, but we’ll have additional insight directly from designers later today.
