Kevin Durant New Nike Shoes Look Like Clown Shoes

NBA

Kevin Durant's New Shoes Are A Complete Nightmare

12/27/08 in NBA | 100%InjuryRate | 1283 respect

I'm not sure who at Nike was responsible for designing Kevin Durant's new kicks, but they need to be fired immediately. These are Durant's new shoes below, and if you think they look like clown shoes, you're not the only one.

Good Lord those things are ugly. Not to mention I have no idea who's going to buy these things. I mean, the last person you want to resemble on the court is Bobo the Clown.

In all honesty, these Durant shoes may be the worst I've ever seen. The only ones that even come close are Karl Malone's old LA Gear shoes.

OK, I take back what I said about Durant's shoes being the worst ever. Nothing will ever top the LA Gear shoes in terms of sheer stupidity and flat out fruitiness.

I don't think they look TOO bad. I mean the LA Tech or whatever the *heck* they're called are just garb. But Durtantula's kicks don't look to bad. I just copped the Zoom KD III's in yellow and they look pretty dope.

I"m not mentioning here that I always wanted shoes that light up! but I have to agree with Pat, I think they would be hilarious on Shaq!

I'm just trying to envision what sort of outfit I would have to come up with to make those shoes work. It's too horrible to think about.

I'm not sure that outfit exists, unless of course you're going to entertain the kiddies at a party!!!

That doesn't really make it much better.

Or at least I would hope it's a photoshop.

It isn't much of an improvement. They are still hellacious. Although I give you the point that the lights are worse. Anyone who wears lights on their shoes over the age of 11 should be subject to public ridicule.

There had to be at least 10 people these shoes went in front of before they decided to go into production and not one of them said this is the worst idea i've ever seen?

I thought Ronald Mc Donald's shoes are better than them but they are still ugly! If my man buy those shoes, I will kick his behind and have him landed at the Gateway to the West. LOL
