Nike Basketball Christmas Day Footwear

Kobe Bryant, Lebron James and Kevin Durant will all be wearing limited-edition Christmas Day colorways of their signature sneakers which will be available at retail the following day, December 26th.

The special footwear will be unveiled on-court as Lebron and the Miami Heat play Kobe and the LA Lakers in what’s sure to be a Christmas Day classic, while the Denver Nuggets will match up against Durant and the OKC Thunder on the 25th.

“Lebron will debut his second signature sneaker of the 2010-11 season, the LEBRON 8 V.2, in the “Run on Red” Christmas Day colorway against the Lakers on the 25th. The LEBRON 8 V.2 Christmas Day release will be available at retail starting on Dec. 26, 2010. Additional colors of the LEBRON 8 V.2 will launch at retail on Jan 8, 2011.

The Christmas Day KD III “No Yield for Yellow” colorway will be worn on-court against the Denver Nuggets on the 25th. Other details of the KD III signature shoe include five lightening bolts on the outsole to represent his team, piano keys near the heel and midfoot of the outsole representing KD’s love of music and the BF62 repeat pattern on the outsole is a nod to the game where KD put up 62 points at Barry Farms in his home town of DC.

The Christmas Day KOBE VI will be worn on-court in green with red laces against Lebron and the Miami Heat.”
