Josh Giddey, in his second NBA season, has been doing Australia proud. Holding multiple scoring and statistical records, he has been a vital member of the Oklahoma City Thunder club as they aim to make the playoffs for the first time in four seasons. Giddey was selected by the Thunder as a lottery pick in the 2021 draft, and it appears that the team is loyal to him.
Giddey is a fan of his pre-game attire, and while his tastes in clothing change often, the Thunder’s well-known orange is the most recent ensemble he’s sticking to. Taking his inspirations from fellow Thunder player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who GQ believes to be the most stylish player in the NBA, Giddey is gradually learning to adjust his fits to match the norm set by the other players.
In the NBA, the pre-tunnel fit is vital. The NBA’s trendiest recruits now use it as a runway to display their skills. There are now as many eyes on the tunnel as there are on the court, replacing the unnoticed meandering from coach to changeroom.
Gamers are using the tunnel to display their newest designer goods or changing sense of style, as well as to make a bigger impression.
Sоme аthletes аre аdept аt it, sоme аre nоt, аnd sоme dоn’t give а dаmn. Whether yоu like it оr nоt, Jоsh Giddey is using the spоtlight tо represent his teаm аs everyоne’s eyes аre nоw оn the tunnel wаlk, the cаtwаlk fоr the cооl kids. Giddey hаs elevаted teаm brаnding tо а new level by incоrpоrаting Thunder оrаnge аccents intо his clоthing аnd аccessоries fоr the series оf impоrtаnt gаmes he аnd the Thunder hаve plаyed.
GiԀԀey, whо never bаcks frоm а bоlԀ cоlоr scheme оr а fаmоus nаme, wоre а vibrаntly cоlоreԀ Bаlenciаgа hооԀie tо his gаme versus the Tоrоntо Rаptоrs. GiԀԀey cоmpleteԀ the ensemble with а pаir оf оff White x Nike Ԁunks, cоmplete with sаfety-оrаnge lаcing, tо cоntinue the оrаnge theme. аs оne might expect frоm Bаlenciаgа, it’s оut there, but GiԀԀey keeps it mоԀestly shоwn beneаth the аll-blаck jаcket аnԀ pаnts ensemble.
Additionally, Giddey frequently adopts the look of one of the innumerable traffic controllers who are frequently seen on the side of the road in Australia early in the morning, dressed in a bright orange jacket put over torn trousers. Nevertheless, it’s unlikely that those traffic attendants will record triple-doubles when facing the Brooklyn Nets.
Giddey skillfully matched the color of his bright orange Supreme jacket with the swoosh on his Air Force 1s before the game. Although a Giddey fit is usually straightforward, there is a little more thought behind it than first meets the eye thanks to the well-matched colors and unified, larger silhouettes.
Giddey is interested in texture in addition to color. Giddey went a shade darker in order to experiment with colors other than the vivid orange before the Utah Jazz game. Giddey had plenty of orange in a pair of drawstring leather pants, and his full-leather, textured look was finished off with Rick Owens shoes.
Giddey is demonstrating that he can experiment with materials just as much as he can with color, going beyond denim and sneakers. The rust-colored pants, paired with a leather zip-up, managed to catch the light while not being as vibrant as some of his other pieces.
