Nike will release another trio of sneakers that are expected to make headlines in April, following up their Basketball Elite Series Team Collection.

Nike announced that they will release their Basketball Easter Collection on April 18, featuring the low-top sneakers of LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant.

First up is the tweaked edition of James' LeBron 11 that is low-cut in form with a full-length Air unit throughout the midsole along with zonal articulation to provide superb flexibility and breathability.

The new version features a white-based Hyperfuse upper part with green hints along with a green outsole. According to Nike, the design was inspired by the tropical palm trees in Miami.

"This special Easter edition takes inspiration from wearing your Sunday best, in a clean white upper with a paisley pattern inspired by the tropical palm trees of Miami," Nike noted.

The Nike LeBron 11 Low, which will be released in Low White/Light Lucid Green-Metallic Silver, will sell at $170 per pair in select Nike Stores worldwide.

Bryant's newest signature sneaker, the Kobe 9 EM, also underwent an Easter makeover as it will be released in Turbo Green/Metallic Silver-Volt-Black colorway.

This edition sports a green-based upper part with unique graphic design along with a silver Swoosh and white outsole—a design that is said to be inspired by the Easter tradition of decorating eggs.

"The Kobe 9 EM features engineered mesh and dynamic Flywire for natural motion without compromising strength and durability. Inspired by the Easter tradition of dying colorful eggs, the Kobe 9's upper makes a splash with its green and blue dyed aesthetic," Nike noted.

The Kobe 9 EM "Easter" will be available for $160 per pair.

Durant's sixth signature sneaker, which has been making waves on the sneaker market over the past several months, is expected to become even more popular. 

The KD VI will also come out in an Easter-inspired colorway featuring a green-based upper part with camouflage print and mango logos and Air unit—a design influenced by the Easter egg hunting tradition.

"The traditional Easter egg hunt influenced the custom camouflage pattern mixed with Easter iconography featured on this special edition KD VI," Nike noted.

The KD VI "Easter" will sell at $130, and will be available in select Nike accounts worldwide.
