Once upon a time, the NBA enjoyed a spotlight unto itself on Christmas Day, in an era before the shield’s reach extended onto the 25th. Even if the league now has competition during the holidays, Christmas Day games are still some of the premier slots in the league calendar overall. One Giannis Antetokounmpo has played the Grinch in the past few seasons, voicing his frustrations that he and his Milwaukee Bucks were absent in 2024, sadly a fate that’s been repeated in the current year.

Even if his direct employer doesn’t have him on the schedule, Giannis can feel some December fuzzies via his primary endorser. The Nike Giannis Freak 7 “Snow Pack” is all the proof you need, tacking the Greek’s signature shoe into a budding category for the final month of the year: the Ja 3 “Snowed In,” GT Cut 3 “Christmas,” and KD 18 “Gifted” (previously reported as the “Easy Money Sniper”) flank the pair at hand. Though diverging quite a bit in their respective color palettes, the snow globe jewel emblems, speckled treatments, and gradient red-to-green aspects unite all of them. While the narrative motivation behind it isn’t clear at the time of writing, purple hues taking over the bulk of the Freak 7’s real estate distinguish Antetokounmpo’s version, before circling back to festive green and red in the laces and a Swoosh outlined in tinsel-y silver.

Though only overseas retailers have reported a hard date so far, the Nike Giannis Freak 7 “Snow Pack” appears to be circled for a December 5th drop. If you’ve got this colorway on your list, keep this page and our Sneaker Release Dates hub within reach for more updates as that launch draws closer.
