Everyone’s favorite annoying kid (Lil Dez) from the successful Nike MVPuppets commercials, gets emblazed on a pair of Nike Big to help celebrate Kobe Bryant’s fourth NBA Championship.  The shoe will be a quickstrike and it features a Sport Red synthetic leather upper with “LIL DEZ” written on the heel, on the collar of both shoes the words “Congrats Kobe” are written in a script font, and a Lil Dez graphic is featured on the shoe’s tongue.  Dropping soon.
