Despite missing this year’s NBA Playoffs due to a calf injury, Giannis Antetokounmpo, the dynamic force known as the Greek Freak, is gearing up to lead the Greek national team at the Paris Olympics. As he prepares for the global stage, Nike introduces the Giannis Freak 6, the latest evolution of his signature shoe.

Shifting from the Zoom Freak moniker, the new design is meticulously crafted to complement Antetokounmpo’s explosive playing style. Unveiled through official images and early leaks, the Freak 6 boasts a combination of Cushlon 2.0 foam and a forefoot Air Zoom unit for responsive cushioning and impact absorption.

TPU midsole components and an internal support system enhance stability, while the Freakprint outsole delivers exceptional traction. The lightweight monomesh upper showcases thematic colorways like “Roses,” a tribute to his late father, and “Naija,” reflecting his heritage.

The Nike Giannis Freak 6 “Roses” carries a retail price tag of US$150 and will be available via Nike brick-and-click stores on 16 August, while the Nike Giannis Freak 6 “Naija” bears an RRP of US$140 and will be released on 1 September via the same avenues. The “Naija” pair will also arrive in grade school sizing, priced at US$105.
