New Balance unveils the KAWHI Christmas collection to celebrate its partnering athlete Kawhi Leonard during this holiday season. The capsule draws inspiration from the festive times and details a series of sporty designs with graphics that honor this time. The holly jolly crewneck is inspired by the Snow Wasset, which is a mythical beast that travels through the snow and attacks his prey.
This is selected to reference Kawhi on the court and his aggressive plays. In terms of design, it is translated in terms of bright blue, which also translates to the sneaker options as well. The apparel includes two sweaters that are based in the foundation of white or gray, detailed with a christmas tree made from basketball stacked on top of one another accompanied by the playful phrase "Santa Klaws."
