In addition to being a "fun guy," Kawhi Leonard is, first and foremost, a quiet guy. So, between last night's loss to the Sacramento Kings and this morning's unveiling of the Los Angeles Clippers' new uniforms, Leonard can safely remain flying under the radar.
Lost in the shuffle of this morning's news is Leonard's new sneakers. Leonard debuted his fourth signature sneaker with New Balance during the 2024 NBA All-Star Game with absolutely zero announcements from the brand.
Since then, fans have been treated to multiple looks at the New Balance KAWHI 4. Below is a detailed look at the performance basketball shoes and everything we know about them at this time.
New Balance KAWHI 4
So far, we have seen Leonard debut a hot pink and orange colorway, as well as last night's black and gold colorway. Unfortunately, there is no official release date, pricing, or tech specs for the New Balance KAWHI 4.
Leonard's third signature sneaker launched on February 10, 2023, for $160 in adult sizes. The technology used in the New Balance KAWHI 3 included a full-length FuelCell cushioning system combined with Energy Arc.
It also paired a sport-specific carbon fiber plate geometry with strategic midsole voids designed to increase stored energy to deliver a higher total energy return. The result was a masterpiece on the court.
Despite last night's home loss, the Clippers are still well-positioned to make a playoff run in the Western Conference. Hopefully, Leonard's unreleased sneakers enjoy an official launch sooner rather than later. Follow FanNationKicks.com for all your footwear news from the sports world.
