Nike KD8 "V-8" 07.11.15

The KD8 features two technical firsts in a Nike Basketball shoe: a Flyweave upper and an articulated full-length Zoom Air unit. These elements work in tandem to provide Durant with a versatility, fit and responsiveness engineered for basketball’s most dynamic player.

Speed and strength breaks ankles on the court, but it can also turn heads on the street. one of the first things KD picked up after the draft was a cherry-red ride with 600hp. Its high-octane V-8 was the automotive mirror of KD’s offense, and the perfect way to arrive at the arena before taking it over.

The KD8 "V-8" ($230) drops Saturday July 11th.
