Nike today unveiled the latest installment in the Kevin Durant signature shoes series, the KD VI. The shoe was launched in Durant's hometown of Seat Pleasant, MD just outside of Washington. The low-cut design is similar to Kobe's Zoom design.
“As I look to evolve my game, my shoe plays a big role,” said Durant in a release from Nike. “The KD VI has the low and light feel that Leo and I concepted from the start and I’m excited to get out and play in it next season.”
The KD VI features six key performance benefits:
- New tongue construction for superior fit
- Ultra-thin two-layer upper with Flywire for lockdown support
- Hyperfuse construction for comfort and breathability
- Nike Zoom in the forefoot for responsive cushioning
- Max Air unit in the heel for maximum impact protection
- Data-informed traction pattern for non-slip control
The shoe will be available globally at select retailers and Nike.com beginning July 3.
