These are the best Halloween shoes in the NBA and there is no debate.

KAT wore the shoes on Monday night during the Timberwolves’ win over the Heat and there’s so much to love about it. The black-and-fog colorway, the really well done image of Jason and the blood spatter — that blood spatter.

Not only does it look realistic, but it’s as if the spatter came off the machete swoosh. It’s even on the laces ever so slightly. It’s the little details, too, like the spots of wear on the swoosh like it’s been used and rusted. It’s just incredible.

These are unmistakably Nikes, but they’re also something else entirely. Just perfection.
