Nike's Easter Basket Ball Shoe Collection

We've been pouring over Nike's Easter release for some time now, and we're still confused. There's not a scrap of chocolate egg or religious symbolism in sight.

Apparently, we've got the wrong end of the reference: pastel colours are supposedly synonymous with the holiday, which is news to us. Still, we're willing to forgive the weak hook when the product looks this good.

In celebration of Easter, Nike has repurposed four of its signature basketball shoes for the season: the Kobe X, KD7, Kyrie 1 and Lebron 12 manage to pull off a range of holiday-themed camo and vivid colour prints.

Set to launch on 2 April, you can find the collection at specialist Nike stockists including Hanon and Nike's online store.

And, should you actually play a few games in them, they're a lot better for your health than the usual foil-wrapped offering.
