words \/\/ Ian Stonebrook:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Easter Sunday is upon us and with that is a new crop of colorways coinciding with the special celebration. Whether you think such sneaker styles register as festive fun or hype off a holy day, the various themed takes from a variety of brands have shed new and nice light on silos both nostalgic and current. With that in mind, we countdown our ten favorite Easter themed sneakers. Not seeing your personal favorite pair? Let us know your top pick in the comments section.<\/span><\/p>\n Light on detail but high on wearability, the “Mint Candy” colorway of the Nike Zoom KD IV sees Sunday shine on the brightest of Durant designs.<\/span><\/p>\n The Reebok Question has seen its share of holiday hype, sometimes good, sometimes bad. This ladies launch for Easter wins with shiny styling and pastel pops that still register as calm, collected and festive.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Good all season, the Nike Lunar Force 1 “Easter Egg” Collection doesn’t scream energy colorway — which is actually a good thing. Simple enough to hook up with your Sunday best without taking away from Sunday service, all iterations of these cozy kicks are easy enough to dress up or dress down.<\/span><\/p>\n Not all releases from the streetwear boom last the test of time. The Reebok Pump Omni Lite “Easter” registers as dated but not overdone, carrying the theme without getting carried away.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kobe and Christmas will always be synonymous for both sneaker and basketball memories. Just the same, the Black Mamba has shown a lighter side of his scales with some well done Easter variations. His eighth installment from his Swooshed signature line still serves as his best Easter example.<\/span><\/p>\n Sportswear silos come and go, but the Nike Court Force High is a great example of a classic kick that wasn’t obviously overdone. Seen here in its “Easter” iteration for the ladies, the swooping lines of the design and its usually understated approach pop perfectly with patent and pastels.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n It may be early to call it, but the adidas Basketball 2015 “Easter” Collection is a home run. High on holiday hues while delivering decadent detail, these court ready colorways speak to spring and festive fun.<\/span><\/p>\n Occupied by ostrich, the Reebok Court Victory Pump “Easter” ditches the conventional colorways for stripes and strong shades. Made famous by Michael Chang on the clay, these are a good look all season.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Patent pastels and the AF1 was a match made in Heaven. Appearing appropriately on the Air Force 1 not once but twice, the first foray is still the strongest for this on-point pairing.<\/span><\/p>\n The Nike Air 180 may not the hone as many hunt-worthy colorways as its AM associates, but this “Easter” edition is certainly worth searching for. Pastel placement, festive branding and a balanced look make for a timeless take on the retro runner.<\/span><\/p>\n10. Nike Zoom KD IV “Mint Candy”<\/h2>\n
