If you’ve been watching Team USA do their thing out on the hardwood in the 2012 Olympics at all recently you’ve probably gotten the sense of how much of a favorite they are for the gold medal this summer. Even the announcers, doing their best to be PC about it and not come right out and say what we’re all thinking, slip up sometimes and mention how likely it is that our boys will be grabbing the gold. In the event that that does happen Nike Basketball has of course crafted a special set of sneakers to pay tribute, with Kevin Durant’s Nike Zoom KD IV ‘Gold Medal’ pictured in a few new angles here. Click through with us to get a better look at the regally shiny sneaker and keep in mind that this colorway will be hitting shelves August 18th. Photos: gallery2
