Nike Basketball 2014 Easter Collection

As spring slowly breaks through winter’s cold grasp and Easter appears on the horizon, Nike typically delivers a pair of sneakers inspired by the springtime holiday and its hallmark pastels. This time around however, a collection of three player-exclusive basketball kicks with unique color inspirations will release from the Beaverton camp. Starting with the LeBron 11 Low, this model tips its hat to wearing your Sunday best with a clean white upper and a paisley pattern as a tribute to Miami’s tropical palm trees. The Kobe 9 EM features a multicolored Engineer Mesh construction that resembles the Easter tradition of color-dying eggs. Lastly, the KD VI and its camouflage green upper was influenced by another Easter tradition: the egg hunt. Each of the three models will be available April 18 at Nike.com and select retail locations throughout the globe.
