Bespoke Luol Deng Nike M65 Jacket
[nivoslider id=”15824″]
This summer Nike is celebrating athletic commitment, dedication and achievement at the highest level through the ‘Greatness’ campaign.
Every athlete is shaped by their own unique experiences and to celebrate this Nike has taken its iconic NIKE M65 jacket and custom crafted a unique edition for eight British athletes it partners with, including one for our very own Luol Deng.
Each M65 jacket is embellished with personal mantras distinct to each athlete so that it becomes a symbol of inspiration. Each chosen British athlete was presented with their bespoke M65 jacket in a custom built wooden presentation box that features a laser etched Union Jack.
Basketball legend Scottie Pippen surprised Luol Deng with his customised jacket at the World Basketball Festival in Brixton a couple of weeks back.
Printed in patriotic red on the inside placket, each mantra embodies the spirit of athletic commitment and success. Luol Deng’s is “I’ll return to deliver”.
In addition to the personal mantras on each jacket, a bonded woven Union Jack is stitched on the left arm, while each athlete’s name is embroidered on a Velcro name plate.

Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
