Drake's passion for basketball and loyalty to the University of Kentucky have been well-documented in his music and fashion choices. He's even taken part in the team's day-to-day activities and currently hosts them at his Toronto mansion. This love for the collegiate program moves onto a new canvas - the Nike NOCTA Glide. Following up on the reveal of a slew of color choices set to release in the coming months, including a “Bright Crimson,” “Slime Green,” and “Triple Black.”
Revealed by Lil Yachty on his Instagram Story, the Nike NOCTA Glide University of Kentucky PE contains the usual fusion of materials, including mesh, textile, and TPU. Dominated by blue, the University of Kentucky's color, the sneaker sports white accents on the textile panel along the midfoot and selective parts of the midsole. The blue Swoosh insignia contrasts the white textile panel, while the TPU eyestays spell out “Nike” in crisp white. With its 'bug-eye' design, the sole unit features the Kentucky logo near the toe and the NOCTA branding near the heel. A solid blue outsole provides a fitting finish to the design.
The Nike NOCTA Glide University of Kentucky PE will likely stay exclusive to Drake, his friends and family, and players for the University of Kentucky. Check down below for an image of the sneaker.
