While Nike Basketball doesn’t really make special “Christmas” collections anymore, we take a look at two classic ones, the KD 3 and Kobe 8.

The Nike KD 3 “Christmas” was debuted by Kevin Durant during the NBA’s slate of Christmas day games in 2010. It features a Vibrant Yellow upper with contrasting accents of Photo Blue on the Swooshes, heels and tongues. A matching Yellow midsole and translucent outsole completes the design.

Released in December 2012, the Nike Kobe 8 “Christmas” features a vibrant mix of seasonal colors covering its engineered mesh upper. Bright Crimson Swooshes and laces atop a speckled midsole and Green translucent outsole completes the holiday design.

Check out both models, and let us know which was the better release by casting your vote below.
