Don’t question the wizardry or the sneaker game. Last night, Kid Cudi sported the Nike MAG 2011 for a guest visit on the Conan O’Brien show. Coco got right to the kicks as Cudder explained that he purchased not four, but in fact five pairs of the Back to the Future shoes. The fifth pair? For his lucky girlfriend. Good guy.

Basketball enthusiasts will argue all day whether Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James or Kevin Durant is the best player in the NBA and rightfully so. All we know is that Kevin Durant, who just turned 23 today, is accomplishing some things that the former three didn’t at the mere age of 23. The two-time NBA scoring champion has achieved more things in his young career than many veterans including a FIBA World Championship MVP trophy and being a two-time NBA All-Star selection. In addition to his silky smooth game, many fans have begun paying more attention to his Nike signatures. However, KD has been rocking fresh kicks since his Montrose Christian days.

Although LeBron James’ ninth signature shoe is right around the corner, new colorways of the Nike LeBron 8 PS continue to surface. Following the debut of the “Aqua” Nike LeBron 8 PS earlier this week, we now take a look at the “Gun Metal” Nike LeBron 8 PS. If you recall, one photo of the “Gun Metal” Nike LeBron 8 PS surfaced earlier this summer to many people’s liking. It features a Fuse upper with a mixture of black and grey serving as the predominant color. White hints, including the Swoosh, sole and the Air Max unit, provide nice, complimentary accents. Where does the ”Gun Metal” rank amongst the other LeBron 8 PS colorways we have seen?

Just want to buy a pair of Nike LeBron 8 P.S. Gun Metal PE right now? Nike LeBron 8 P.S. Gun Metal PE.

Unlike some of the other basketball shoe lineups that have existed over the years, the newer signature basketball lineups have been releasing a huge amount of colorways in a short amount of time. While the ones that don’t release so many colorways rely on the fact that their shoes are a bit rarer so the fans want them even more, the ones with tons of colorways rely on the fact that with all of those colorways, there is bound to be at least one that the fans will like. The Nike LeBron lineup definitely subscribes to the second strategy and we are going to be looking at the latest version of it today. This is the new Nike LeBron 8 P.S. Gun Metal PE.

These shoes feature a very dark upper and also one that looks very tough, which is only natural for a shoe with gun metal in the title.
