Colin Kaepernick and Nike Reportedly Releasing Shoe in December

When the deal was first signed, people believed that Nike made a mistake and was going to lose money. However, sales went up drastically after the deal was announced. Nike’s stock rose 18 percent, adding $26.2 billion to their bottom line and valuing Nike at close to $146 billion, since Wednesday.

While Nike and Kaepernick have not announced the shoes’ release just yet, Carolina Panthers safety Eric Reid, posted a picture of them on Instagram. Reid positioned the shoes on a Kaepernick jersey and captioned the post “Game day fit. You already know #ImWithKap y’all see the kicks”.
