Devin Booker debuted the Nike Book 2 “Peace” PE during warmups at Madison Square Garden, and the reference was instantly clear. The colorway pulls from Nike’s legendary 1992 Air Raid and its role in Spike Lee’s “Urban Jungle Gym” campaign. That era defined how basketball shoes could carry cultural identity beyond the court.
The upper stays clean in black, letting the midsole tell the story. A vibrant, African-inspired mosaic wraps the tooling, echoing the original Air Raid 2 design language. It creates contrast that feels intentional rather than decorative, giving the Book 2 a strong visual anchor.
Details carry the message further. A peace sign appears near the heel, while “Live Together” reinforces the campaign’s original theme of unity and expression. Even Booker’s logo uses color placement that mirrors the bold graphic style made famous in the Urban Jungle visuals.
This Nike Book 2 PE feels like a continuation of Booker’s approach to storytelling. His signature line keeps referencing meaningful chapters in Nike Basketball history instead of chasing trends. That consistency makes each player exclusive feel purposeful, not random.
Compared to recent Book 1 colorways, this Urban Jungle PE leans deeper into cultural symbolism. It shows how Booker’s line is becoming a bridge between performance design and archival storytelling.
The Nike Book 2 “Peace” (Urban Jungle Gym) PE release timing remains unconfirmed and will only be seen only on court for now.
