Fresh Kicks: What are the Bucks’ favourite basketball shoes?

With the season fast approaching, I decided to switch up from the usual and veer into a different lane: footwear. I wanted to investigate what shoes the Bucks wore last season, which will, by and large, inform what they wear this season. Players are creatures of habit and generally like to stick to the same makes and models once they find something they like. And while I’m certainly no expert, I do happen to know a bit about basketball shoes, so this was an enjoyable article to write. Let’s get into it.

These guys all love the Nike Sabrina model, which, of course, is WNBA star Sabrina Ionescu’s signature shoe. Of the four players, Tyler Herro is the only one contractually obligated to wear Nike, while the other three choose to rock the brand.

Dieng inked a deal with Adidas when he was drafted 11th overall in 2022. Since then, he’s mostly been rolling with with James Harden’s line. Here he is in the Harden Vol. 9.

For those who didn’t know, Nate Ament has been with Reebok since late 2024, when he signed a deal while still in high school. Yes, high school. As the once-heralded brand tries to break back into an increasingly saturated market, it targeted top players at all levels, with the Bulls’ Matas Buzelis, Kings’ Darius Acuff Jr., and Sky’s Angel Reese also joining as ambassadors.
