Today, Nike Basketball has officially unveiled the 2015 Christmas Collection features four of its signature models – the Kobe 10 Elite, LeBron 13, KD 8, and freshly revealed Kyrie 2. You’ll instantly notice that Nike went for more of an abstract route with the colorways while refraining from overtly “Christmas” details like candy canes and such, and we have all of those rich backstories detailed just ahead. Mark your calendars for Saturday, December 26th for the official release of the Nike Basketball 2015 Christmas Collection and read on below to get the full stories.

Recalling the traditional “12 Days Of Christmas” song, Nike hones on the fifth day with “Five Golden Rings” to honor the Black Mamba’s incredible collection of championship hardware.
