Lillard honors Ric Flair with new Dame 7 sneaker
Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard turned to Ric Flair for inspiration for a new colorway of his signature sneaker.
The latest version of Lillard's Adidas Dame 7 features a royal blue colorway reminiscent of one of Flair's iconic robes along with a silhouette of the WWE legend on the tongue. Flair's signature "Wooooo!" catchphrase and "Nature Boy" nickname also appear on the shoe.
