2024-25 Panini Noir Basketball is a product for those who not only like high-end breaks, but standout designs as well. Drawing from film, fashion and other areas of the sport, the checklist is heavy on hits. Hobby boxes include four autographs, all of which are on-card. Three memorabilia cards are also in each box. Other elements include low-numbered parallels and short-print base cards that come with metal frames. The base set has a lot of sections and subsets. Standard base give players two cards, one in their Icon jersey and another in their Association jersey. Additional parallels include Holo Silver (/49), Holo Ruby (/25), Gold (/10), Holo Gold (/5) and Platinum (1/1). Separate metal frame cards carry such themes as Biopics, City Edition, Critically Acclaimed, Feature Length, Motion Picture and Vintage Art. Sneaker Spotlight Signatures return. While players are pictured, the focus of these (aside from the autograph) is the footwear. Another Noir staple, Spotlight Signatures, is also back. In addition to a sleek design, players’ penmanship on these come in gold ink. The 2024-25 Noir checklist has a lot more autograph sets including A-List Signatures, GenreGraphs, NBA at Night Signatures, NEONoir Signatures, Showrunner Signatures, and Starring Role. 10th Anniversary Patch Autographs not only add a relic element but a bit of a throwback look and feel as well for those who have been with the brand from the beginning.
