Gilas, Perlas to be equipped with ‘Agimat’ in 3X3 World Cup


Mula Mandirigma sa Mandirigma

Gilas 3×3 and Perlas 3×3 will be fully armed for battle come the 2018 FIBA 3×3 World Cup.

After the success of last year’s LeBron 14 decked out in the same style and inspiration, the Filipino-inspired theme ‘Agimat’ returns once again this year in the LeBron Soldier 12 – the latest in King James’ signature basketball shoe line.

Featuring a simplified strap, lower collar, and circular knit upper, the shoe is a celebration of the Pinoy’s tough and enduring spirit, especially on the basketball court. Once again carrying the tagline, “Mula Mandirigma sa Mandirigma”, the shoe boldly shouts local cultural Filipino elements.

It also features unique symbolism that pays tribute to both LeBron James and the Philippines.

And what better way for the shoe to make its debut than in the biggest stage in 3×3 basketball, which is the upcoming FIBA 3×3 World Cup this June 8-12 at the Philippine Arena in Bocaue, Bulacan.2018-fiba-3x3-world-cup-womens-perlas Gilas, Perlas to be equipped with 'Agimat' in 3X3 World Cup 2018 FIBA 3X3 World Cup 3x3 Basketball Gilas Pilipinas News Perlas Pilipinas  - philippine sports news
