KD really pulled up to warmups looking like Big Bird 😭🐥

Back in 2016, Kevin Durant had the internet COOKING him when he debuted these wild Nike KD 8 Elites. The extended compression sleeve made the shoes look like they went all the way up his legs, and once KD wore the orange pair with matching orange socks, the Big Bird comparisons were inevitable 😂💀

People were photoshopping bird feet onto him, comparing him to Sesame Street characters, and roasting the design all over social media. Looking back almost a decade later though, these might be one of the most unforgettable shoes KD ever wore.

Nike was definitely experimenting with this one 😭🔥 Would y’all actually hoop in these today? 👀🏀
