This was the shoe Durant wore during the Christmas game that year. As bright as these are, they tend to live under the shadow of the Kobe VI and Lebron VIII Christmas editions that released around the same time.

INFO - LEBRON 8 V2 "ALL STAR"
As is typical of special Lebron releases of the last two years, this pair had a lot of buildup before they dropped, and quickly sold out. The shoe did have a surprise restock or two, but even then they went quick! Something about the gradient just makes these stand out amongst the ASG releases from 2011. These also feature a special print on the insole and detailing on the laces near the toe.
SNEAKER REVIEW - AIR FORCE 1 "ASG HOLLYWOOD"
Three Air Force 1's released to commemorate the 2011 NBA All-Star Game, each representing an area of Los Angeles. These are said to be based off of Hollywood, hence the glitzy colorway. Like many AF1s, regardless if they were highly anticipated or not, I still saw a couple of pairs floating around at an outlet a couple of months after they released. Still, these are a dope shoe and a bit of an upgrade from standard white on white Air Force Ones.
SNEAKER REVIEW - KD3 "ALL STAR GAME"
Kevin Durant has typically released his shoes at a lower price point than Kobe, Lebron, and Jordan. I'm not sure if it's this factor or the wider availability that had the KD3 being overlooked by collectors, but when the Christmas editions dropped, people started to pay more attention. While the silhouette doesn't suit all color combinations, the ASG or All Star Game colorway is a definite good look and is sought after to some extent by sneakerheads.
