Fashion update: Duke football and basketball teams show off new footwear

Nike's latest batch of footwear for the Blue Devils rolled into Durham this week, providing a new twist on Duke's traditional blue and white colors.

The Duke football team was first to give the public a glimpse of its new footwear when the team posted a photo of new white and royal blue Nike cleats on Instagram.

But that wasn't the only Blue Devil team to make a fashion statement this week.

The Duke men's basketball team continued to reap the benefits of its fifth national championship, receiving custom Nike Kobe basketball shoes with a gold swoosh in honor of its title.

Of course, this isn't the first time the Blue Devils have received a pair of new kicks. Early last season, Duke got custom LeBron 12's for its regular season debut as well as custom Kyrie Irving Air Force 1's.
