A'ja Wilson and Nike Unveil A'Two Signature Shoe in Paris Ahead of May 2 Release

Wilson shaped the line to blend responsive tech with her personal narrative for a new generation of hoopers.

Overview

  • Wilson debuted the A'Two and an expanded apparel collection in Paris during her Nike Basketball tour, calling the sequel "bigger" and "bolder."
  • The shoe and collection go on sale May 2 on Nike.com and at select retailers, with pricing not officially announced as reports point to about $145.
  • Performance updates include a forefoot Air Zoom unit, Cushlon 3.0 midsole with a shank for energy transfer and control, a reinforced heel counter, and a molded synthetic leather upper for improved lockdown.
  • The launch arrives in an A'Pink colorway with iridescent accents and a star logo, extending a design story tied to a pearl necklace from Wilson’s grandmother; Wilson says she is "99 percent" involved with hidden design messages.
  • The companion line adds pieces built for women’s needs, including a single-leg Dri-FIT tight and an oversize unisex hoodie featuring a sateen-lined hood to protect hair.
