Nike Release Dates 2015: KD 8, LeBron 12, Kobe 10, Kyrie 1 '4th of July' Price & Where To Buy [Pics]
Global sports brand Nike is coming out with another reason to celebrate the Independence Day. The company, famous for its signature basketball shoe collection, is coming out with a "4th of July" line that would bring a patriotic feel to four of its signature sneakers.
This year's version of the Independence Day-themed sneakers is extra special as it brings not just the top three signature basketball shoes from the Nike collection.
Unlike in 2014 when the brand came out with a "July 4th" design for the KD7, Kobe 9 and LeBron 11, 2015's version adds the latest from all three designs plus the addition of Kyrie Irving's first shoe collaboration with Nike.
This is the first time that Kyrie's signature shoe will be included to honor the Stars and Stripes. True to the theme, the Kyrie I maintains the blue, red and white color that has been a symbol of the American flag and the country's independence.
The color is listed officially as Soar/ White/ Bright Crimson/ Metallic Silver. It brings with it all the technology that Nike has designed for the shoe and Irving's comfort in the hard court.
Kyrie I is available in both adult and children's sizes. Men's sizing will be sold at $110 a pair while the kids' sizing can be copped for $100.
Apart from the new addition, the main highlight of the "4th of July" collection is the arrival of Kevin Durant's eighth signature shoe collaboration with the popular sports brand.
Listed officially as the Soar/ White/ Bright Crimson/ Midnight Navy color, the KD8 "4th of July" will bring with it the Flyweave upper material made from a pattern of white, red and blue as well as a full-length Midnight Navy Zoom Air unit. A red outsole completes the look for the sneaker.
The KD 8 "4th of July" is available for $180 a pair. Children who might want to don a pair can do so for $130 each.
Kobe X's patriotic feel is obvious from the patterned upper material of red, white and blue, complete with star patterns on the forefoot.
Listed officially as the "university Red/ Photo Blue/ Reflect Silver color, a translucent gum sole does not distract from the actual upper design while providing maximum comfort to the wearer of the shoe.
The Kobe X "4th of July" will be sold at $180 a pair for adult sizes while kids' sizes are at $135 each.
LeBron James might have missed another chance to take home the championship ring but his "4th of July" sneaker is definitely full of patriotic spirit worth celebrating for.
The LeBron 12 is listed with the official color of Light Crimson / Bright Crimson/ Midnight Navy/ White and did not shy away from the use of star patterns, which could be seen in the heel area of the sneaker.
While the shoe is predominantly red, hints of blue can be seen in the inner cushioning while a white Nike Swoosh is found on the forefoot.
This shoe is available for $200 for adult sizes. Kids can also cop a pair for $160.
The Nike "4th of July" collection will drop on Nike retail stores and Nike.com on June 27.
