The actual NBA All-Star Game is Sunday, but the most important part of the whole weekend? Psssh. The shoes, of course. Those — the on-court ones, anyway — arrive much earlier than Sunday. Tomorrow, in fact.
The Nike Basketball All Star 2016 collection comprises five models; three signature shoes — the LeBron 13, Kobe 11 and KD 8 — as well as the Air Max Audacity and Hyperlive, which will be worn by Anthony Davis and Paul George, respectively. Each shoe is inspired by “sport royalty,” drawing aesthetic cues from the royal origins of All-Star host city Toronto in the form of decorative badges and metal, leather and embroidered embellishments.
All five launch at Nike B’ball accounts nationwide Thursday, February 11, including at online retailers at 10am EST/7am PST. Purchase links for each accompany photos below.
