New Balance celebrates Kawhi Leonard with two limited t-shirts
On the occasione of the Toronto Raptors NBA victory
June 14th, 2019
"Board man gets paid" is the slogan took by New Balance to celebrate Kawhi Leonard, NBA Finals' MVP and winner of his first historic NBA title with the Toronto Raptors. Leonard's motto is used by himself since the college period together with his mates to have the right feeling to aim to the NBA. Today, "Board man gets paid" can become "Board man gets titles", paying homage to the victory of the ring by the former Spurs' athlete. A banner with this phrase has appeared at Downtown in Toronto, and it follows the revelation of the "Fun boy." poster exposed during the finals press conference. Now New Balance refers to these mottos for the release of two limited edition t-shirts.
The shirts are available in white and black colourways and they show the graphic "Fun boy." and "Board man gets paid" on the NB of the American brand.
Kawhi Leonard and New Balance collaborate since this year's February, when Leonard has played in the All-Star Weekend with the new New Balance OMN1S on feet, announcing the return of New Balance in the basketball world.
