San Antonio Spurs Nail Art

Por Vida? Por Vida! Show your Spurs pride with one of these fun nail art designs.

Alien Spurs Nail Art

We all know Victor Wembanyama (aka Wemby) is known for being an alien at 7’4”, so these outer-space-inspired nails pay homage to him. Plus, they work beyond the Finals as cute nail art for any regular day.

Classic Spurs Nail Art

What’s better than rocking the classic silver and black hues of your team? Nothing. Don’t let anyone second-guess who you support.

Spurs Jerseys Nail Art

Don’t have a favorite player? Love the whole team equally? Rep them all with these jersey nails.

Por Vida Spurs Nails

More than a slogan, it’s the story of the Spurs and has certainly carried them through their historic seasons. Get that memorialized on your nails to commemorate the season.

Spurs Mascot Nails

Sometimes the mascots are what make the stadiums magical. If you feel that way about the Coyote, get him on your nails.

Fiesta Spurs Nails

Inspired by the Spurs’ fiesta court, these nails bring the heat and all the color.

Spurs History Nails

Blend new and old vibes with these nails that embrace the new but leave room for a blast from the past. Don’t forget the basketball either.

New York Knicks Nail Art

Do you love New York? Do you ride for your city? Don’t hide it, embrace it with these nail art designs.

Brunson Knicks Nails

Is Brunson your guy? Think he can carry the team to victory? Support him on your nails. Really, you can put any player here (or all of them, if you so please).

Gem Knicks Nails

Have a little nail party at Tiffany’s, then head to the Garden to see the boys play.

I Love New York Knicks Nails

Take inspo from Jordyn Woods, who wore these nails during the playoff run last year while supporting her then-boyfriend, now-fiancé Karl-Anthony Towns in the series.

Abstract Knicks Nails

Don’t be afraid to have a little fun with it, like this set. You don’t have to take it so literally when supporting your fave team.

French Tip Knicks Nails

A twist on a classic French tip always does the trick.

Gothic Knicks Nails

You don’t have to hide your gothic nature to support your team, just pivot (get it?).
