Around the NBA, new Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul is known as a fashionable guy. So it's no surprise that that the 9-time All-Star has teamed with men’s accessory brand Hook & Albert to create a collection of stylish accessories.
The limited-edition lineup includes a backpack, dopp kit, and weekend garment bag in two colors — either slate grey or midnight black with custom gold hardware. The accessories, known for their clean, minimalist design, are made of soft leather and include a chevron lining honoring Paul's late grandfather who was the first African-American man to own a service station in North Carolina.
Paul has also collaborated with Hook & Albert founders Adam Schoenberg and Cory Rosenberg on a collection of studded lapel pins in a variety of fabric colors, including a red-and-black checked edition.
The Chris Paul Collection, which retails from $30-$585, is available in Houston at Saks Fifth Avenue or on the Hook & Albert website. A portion of proceeds benefit the Chris Paul Family Foundation.
