Kevin Durant’s next signature shoe, the Nike KD 12, is officially set to launch which comes dressed in a Black/Pure Platinum-White color scheme. Standout features on the shoe include the mid cut design with a new Flyknit construction on the upper complimented by the White text branding noted on the medial side as well as semi-tonal Swoosh branding on the medial side of the heel and lateral side panel. The shoe is pretty much a full reset from the current line on a design and functional standpoint, and there’s a lot more practical innovation involved that serves KD’s needs that we’ll get into once the model is officially unveiled.
Look for this Nike KD 12 to release on April 7th at select Nike Basketball retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $150 USD.
