Nike Release Dates 2015: LeBron 12 ‘Rubber City’ & KD 8 ‘Spray Paint’ Price & Where To Buy [Photos]
New colorways of two of the most popular sneaker models in the market are set to come out on Monday.
Nike will release two new editions of the LeBron 12, the 12th signature shoe of Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James, and the KD 8, the eighth signature sneaker of Oklahoma City Thunder superstar Kevin Durant.
The LeBron 12 will come out in its EXT variant. The LeBron 12 EXT will be available in what is dubbed as the "Rubber City" edition, which pays tribute to Akron, James' hometown.
The LeBron 12 EXT "Rubber City" features a red-based upper part with spikes and treads, which is similar to that of car tires. It also has a gold Nike Swoosh logo on the side panel.
"The latest LeBron XII EXT digs deep into James' Ohio roots, featuring a design inspired by Akron's long-established rubber industry," Nike wrote. "A city widely recognized for its bustling factories, Akron has produced countless rubber goods, most notably automotive tires for vehicles all over the globe."
The LeBron 12 EXT "Rubber City" will be available starting 10 a.m. ET with retail price set at $295 per pair. Official photos and more information about this new colorway are available on this link.
Aside from the new LeBron 12 EXT colorway, Nike will also release the KD 8 in what is dubbed as the "Spray Paint" edition on Monday and is expected to get a lot of attention.
The KD 8 "Spray Paint" features a customizable multi-colored upper part with design related to an old-school foam toy brand. But aside from its eye-catching look, this new model, which also sports a speckled midsole, boasts two unique features, which were not used in creating previous signature models.
"The KD 8 features two technical firsts in a Nike Basketball shoe: a FlyWeave upper and an articulated full-length Nike Zoom Air unit," Nike noted. "These elements work in tandem to provide Durant with the versatility, fit and responsiveness engineered for basketball's most dynamic player. With NIKEiD, you can customize your own KD 8 with new options including a bold graphic inspired by old-school foam toys."
The Nike KD 8 "Spray Paint" will also be available starting 10 a.m. ET with retail price set at $225 per pair. Official photos and more details about this new KD 8 colorway can be viewed through this link.
