Donovan Mitchell's Adidas D.O.N. Issue 5 was a hit

Last year, Donovan Mitchell's Adidas D.O.N. Issue 5 made an impressive impact as the basketball star made a game-winning buzzer-beater while wearing his signature sneakers.

The shoes garnered attention during an event at the flagship Adidas store in New York City, marking the launch of the "Blue Sapphire" colorway.

Mitchell's shoes were the center of focus and celebration as he promoted them and engaged with aspiring basketball players as part of the event. Issue 5 also had something special beyond the iconic design, featuring Lightstrike cushioning and a mesh upper with at least 50% recycled content.

The Adidas D.O.N. Issue 5 was also seen in a cleated version, shocking the sneakerheads at the MLB Celebrity Game.

"Baseball is my first love and my biggest passion. To be able to play in that game was just a dream come true for me," Mitchell said. "I've made my NBA debut and played in front of thousands of people in arenas. But to be able to play in that space in front of 40,000 fans is truly special."
"I figured, why not come out and make it a moment with my shoes? I've always wanted to make my shoes into baseball cleats to show my love. We are working on getting a few adidas guys to wear my shoes as baseball cleats, so I felt like that was the right direction to do it," he added.

Moreover, Adidas' association with the NBA star has proved to be useful so far.
