When life throws Bransen “Boom” Fernando a challenge, this kid comes out swinging. Diagnosed with bilateral kidney cancer at just seven months old, Bransen became the recipient of a brand new one recently—thanks to his dad’s cross-training coach. His shoe features a kidney print on the sockliner, the date of his transplant, and a donkey for his favorite dialysis nurse.
Flip the shoe over and you’ll find Bransen’s nickname “Boom” in bold letters, along with a bumblebee to represent the “Bs” in his family—his siblings Benjamin and Brielle. Even his dogs, Bonnie and Bosco, are featured as a paw-print surrounded by a heart.
Take a peep at the pair in full detail below, which is set to release alongside the entire DB freestyle collection on December 7th on Nike SNKRS.
