On November 19, 2004, the Indiana Pacers and the Detroit Pistons squared off at The Palace in Auburn Hills, Michigan. The altercation between the Pistons, the defending champions, and the Pacers ignited when Ben Wallace was harshly fouled from behind by Artest. Chaos ensued as both benches emptied, and the notorious fight took place.
Dizygotic, known for premium materials and storytelling, is releasing a special colorway dedicated to the brawl nearly two decades after it took place.
The Project Alpha’s “Malice at the Palace” is crafted with premium full-grain pigskin suede and top-grain leather for an unparalleled experience. The upper showcases a blend of sophistication and style, featuring a perforated suede toe box and number embroideries adorning the heels.
Setting itself apart with a distinctive flair, the pair boasts a deliberate mismatched color scheme and an asymmetrical design that captivates on both the lateral and medial sides. Dive into comfort with insoles that not only cradle your feet with memory foam lining but also tell a tale, featuring a printed narrative from the unforgettable year of 2004 on both insoles.
The Project Alpha is not just a pair of shoes; it’s a testament to craftsmanship, style, and the art of storytelling, all converging in every step you take with one of the NBA’s most memorable nights.
The Dizygotic Project Alpha “Malice at the Palace” is available now at Dizygotic.com for $267.
