Nike KD7 “Calm Before The Storm”
Aug 11th
Kevin Durant’s spartyh signature shoe fuses performance innovation with a creative narrative across five color ways that are centered on the weather. Nike designer Leo Chang created an innovative shoe for Durant that meets the needs of the reigning MVP’s quickness, power and unpredictability, just like the forces of nature. Creatively, Chang applied Durant’s on- and off-court insights that are brought to life through color blocking, graphics and textures to tell stories that are both personal and inspired.
The “Calm Before The Storm” features a grey and pink color way of this KD7 is indicative of skies that appear tranquil before the onset of a powerful storm, though Durant typically remains calm even throughout a swirling frenzy on-court. Pick up a pair starting this Saturday, August 16th for $ 150 at Foot Locker, House of Hoops by Foot Locker and Footlocker.com (starting at 8:00 a.m. EDT). A matching Nike Elite Digital Ink crew sock will also be available at select stores for $ 30. Check the Launch Locator to see which stores will have them.
Jordan Flight Before Christmas Collection
Dec 23rd
Christmas Day is just two days away and that means some of the game’s greatest players will be wearing special colorways celebrating one of the biggest basketball days of the year! This year Jordan Brand and its athletes are celebrating the holiday season with flight-inspired exclusive footwear for Christmas Day. The visual elements in each shoe are inspired by air travel, paying homage to the spirit of traveling to be with family during the holiday season. Each shoe features flight patterns and circular radar imagery representing a busy air traffic control station. The bright colors and reflective materials on the upper are complimented by dark accents and a speckled pattern on the outsole.
Christmas Day offers a unique opportunity for Jordan Brand as Russell Westbrook (wearing the AIR JORDAN XX8 SE) travels to New York City to face Carmelo Anthony (wearing the Jordan Melo M10). Across the country, Chris Paul (in the CP3.VII) and Blake Griffin (wearing the Super.Fly2) will take the court in the last game of the day in hopes of tying a ribbon on a great day of basketball.
Although each shoe brings its own style, they’re all designed for one thing: taking your game higher. Performance technology such as Flight Plate and Dynamic Fit paired with premium materials and exclusive design elements ensure you’ll get noticed when you step on the court this winter.
