Nike Book 2 x Chevy Penny Releases August 2026
Devin Booker's ongoing Chevrolet collaboration with Nike expands to the Book 2 silhouette with a copper-toned Penny colorway, drawing directly from his prized 1959 Impala convertible. The release kicks off August 15 in Detroit before a global launch on August 26, 2026.

The Michigan Connection
Devin Booker's relationship with Chevrolet runs deeper than most athlete-brand partnerships. The NBA guard grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and has cultivated a personal collection of classic Chevy vehicles that reflect both regional pride and automotive passion. Among his most cherished acquisitions is a 1959 Chevrolet Impala convertible finished in a lustrous copper metallic—a vehicle Booker has christened "Pretty Penny." That same Impala now serves as creative inspiration for the latest chapter in his collaborative work with Nike.
Design and Execution
The Chevy x Nike Book 2 Penny translates the Impala's distinctive copper paint finish to a patent leather upper, creating a mirror-like sheen across the silhouette. Collaborative branding arrives via embroidered Chevrolet flags positioned at the heel counter, while the midfoot houses a metallic V logo rendered in a classic finish—a nod to both Booker's signature and Chevy's visual language.
This marks an evolution of the partnership's original trajectory. The Chevy x Nike collaboration debuted last year with two Book 1 colorways, establishing the foundation for what has now become a multi-model initiative. By moving the partnership onto the Book 2, Nike and Chevrolet are signaling sustained commitment to the project rather than treating it as a one-off campaign.
Release Timeline and Details
The Chevy x Nike Book 2 Penny follows a two-phase rollout structure. An exclusive Detroit launch occurs August 15, 2026, timed to the Woodward Dream Cruise—an annual automotive gathering in Booker's home state where he will be present alongside the Pretty Penny Impala itself. This creates a bridge between the sneaker and its physical inspiration, grounding the collaboration in lived experience rather than abstract aesthetics.
A global release follows on August 26, 2026, making the shoe available internationally through Nike's standard retail channels. Available in unisex sizing, the Book 2 Penny carries a retail price of $155.
