NBA Trainer Chris Brickley Debuts His Latest Puma All-Pro Nitro 2 PE

The new NBA season is here, with Media Day giving way to pre-season and, in just a few short weeks, the first regular-season games of the new year. For rookies and vets alike, the new season is time to show off all the work they put in over the offseason, and for NBA trainers, it's time to sit back and gloat.

Trainers for a Trainer

Chris Brickley is one of the league’s favorite trainers, and in addition to his Black Ops runs in a Manhattan skyscraper, Brickley is a longtime member of the Puma basketball family. Over the past few years, Brickley has dropped three PE pairs, including an All-Pro Nitro in 2023 and an All-Pro Nitro 2 last fall. Now, for the third year in a row, Brickley adds another All-Pro Nitro to the lineup with a second All-Pro Nitro 2 colorway.

Dubbed the Race to Evolve, Brickley’s new All-Pro Nitro 2 features a blue base with a Louis Vuitton Damier print-style checkerboard across the entire upper, with a speckled grey midsole underfoot. The lace panel adds a metallic silver shine, with blue suede overlays on the heel and stripe logo.
