Most NBA fans will be either preparing Thanksgiving dinner or gearing up for the holiday shopping next week, and Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton is keeping us busy by doing both.

Earlier this fall, Haliburton's long-awaited first signature PUMA basketball shoe finally launched. Haliburton hit up the grocery store in the marketing promotion for the PUMA Hali 1 'Opal' colorway.

It appears he is still serving fresh sneakers with the upcoming 'Hibiscus' colorway. Haliburton debuted the shoes in an epic Game 1 of the 2025 NBA Finals, and they are finally hitting shelves (literal grocery shelves in the campaign pictures and video).

The PUMA Hali 1 'Hibiscus' colorway will be released at midnight on Wednesday, November 26. Early holiday shoppers will be able to buy the basketball shoes for $130 in adult sizes at PUMA.com, the PUMA app, PUMA Flagship stores in NYC and Las Vegas, Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, and Champs Sports.

The low-top silhouette is crafted in a Poppy Pink and Rose Dust color scheme, with a striking futuristic aesthetic. The PUMA Cat logo, Haliburton's signature branding, and design artist Salehe Bembury's design language appear throughout the shoe.

In a June interview, Haliburton explained that he wanted his first colorway to be pink "because my first pair of real basketball shoes, my first organized pair, was a pair of pink basketball shoes," Haliburton explained. "We wanted to do something that was kind of a nod."

According to Haliburton, he confidently stated that he believes the PUMA Hali 1 is the best signature shoe in the NBA right now after his game-winning shot in the first game of the 2025 NBA Finals.

Even Pacers legend Reggie Miller laced up a pair of the PUMA Hali 1 in a viral Instagram video. Haliburton responded, "I would say it's gotta be the shoes but it's Reggie MF Miller [three fire emojis]."
