Nike gets in the Christmas spirit

And what do you want the day after Christmas?

Nike is banking on new sneakers. The shoe company released their “Christmas colorways” designs on Wednesday with sneakers bearing the namesakes of NBA superstars LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant that will go on sale Dec. 26 at select retail stores in limited quantities.

The LeBron 11 sneaker features “a chilly mint color” taking on “a Christmas green with bold red accents and a frosty translucent outsole.”

The Kobe 8 System “sheds its skin to prepare for the coming of the KOBE 9 Elite in February 2014. The essence of the shedding skin is exemplified in a bold modern interpretation of aggressive snake scales attached to a translucent mesh shroud. Hints of neon mamba green and chrome gold bring in the holiday season.”

The KD VI “features a Fair Isle style Christmas sweater pattern that incorporates trees, stripes, and his number 35. Christmas plaid adorns the collar lining, with decorative detail worked into the metallic red Nike Flywire technology upper and a mint green speckled sole.”
