Damian Lillard's 1st Signature Shoe, the D Lillard 1 by Adidas, Is Unveiled
Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard may be in only his third NBA season, but the Weber State product has proved himself as one of the most clutch players in the league. He's averaging 22.2 points per game to go with 6.3 assists and 4.8 rebounds. Lillard is a monster on the court, and his talent is unquestioned.
As such, Adidas has honored him with his first signature shoe.
Introducing the D Lillard 1.

This infographic breaks down the technology:
The original logo carries some inside meaning. Adidas lays it out:
"•The all-new D Lillard logo is comprised of a D and an L fusing together to create a "0."
"
•D: represents Damian's first name.
•L: represents Damian's last name and family.
•0: Damian's number on the court, which he chose to symbolize the letter "O" for the three places he's called home: Oakland, California; Ogden, Utah; and Oregon.
•A wing made of three stripes represents his crew of close friends, the "Fly Guyz."
Bleacher Report's own Lance Fresh provides an exclusive video of Dame's new kicks. He reports that inside each shoe is a special #4BarFriday verse.
The D Lillard 1 will come in a multitude of colorways.
