Nike KD18 Basketball Shoes

About This Item

KD’s greatest gift? His stamina. The Slim Reaper never tires, both in terms of passion for the game or energy come crunch time. A combo of Air Zoom cushioning and Nike Air gives him unreal responsive cushioning. And Nike® poked holes all over the upper to help reduce the weight and add breathability, so he can hoop all day.


Athlete-Inspired Details:

  • The rubber cage is inspired by the Terra Humara, a staple of Nike ACG (All Conditions Gear), which was “culturally” birthed in D.C., home of KD. It also features suede and rubber hits throughout, which speak to the toughness, grit and longevity of KD’s 19 years (and counting) at the pro level.

Design:

  • The upper is made of open-holed sandwich mesh, which not only offers a different level of breathability when the action heats up, but also helps reduce the weight of the shoe
  • A tough plastic cage offers firmness on both sides of your foot, keeping you upright

In-Shoe Comfort:

  • A big forefoot Air Zoom unit offers a different level of velocity when exploding, either on the dead run or out of a standstill position
  • Nike®’s latest version of Cushlon foam adds a soft, comfortable sensation and freshness for four quarters
  • The bottom layer of the upper has Nike Air cushioning at the heel to add a pop in your step
  • A strong plastic plate directly underfoot conforms as you flex- It works with the forefoot Air Zoom unit to give you a snappy first step while also providing support and stability

Durability & Traction:

  • The outsole pattern looks like a topographical map, with an array of contoured ridges that bend and deflect in multiple directions to provide traction for every move
  • Brand : Nike
  • Country of Origin : Imported

Love this shoe. Would buy it again. Even as a 320 5’9 guy. I can cut jump and the toe box is wide enough for me to feel comfortable. I’ve always had a good experience with KD shoes. Cushion, style and feel. Are all good and the for the price can’t beat it

Kd Bball Shoes

Excellent bball shoes for my son to play varsity bball and AAU.

Easily 10/10

Literally no complaints. Fit me well but wan't uncomfortably tight. I sadly lost these shoes but I'm 100% buying another pair just cuz these were that good!

Great Cop

Bought them for Work got a glossy blue polo. They matched perfectly thinking about buying another pair.

Love Them

Great shoe to work out in.Comfortable and feels great on foot.

Coconut Milk Colorway

What a nice shoe, I used to play with Lebron NXXT Gen AMPD, nice shoe too, but this is a lot better. Nice cushion, feels light but protects your ankle. Traction is really good and if being used outdoor can last depending on the player. I ordered size 12 and my foot lenght is 27.8 cm, perfect fit for me. I ordered coconut milk colorway, simple, but i like it, for me the performance of the shoe is more important than the color or look. I play small forward or power foward.

Kd For The Win

Very comfortable shoes for outdoor ball. Already saved my ankle at least once.

Shoes For The Color Blind

This particular blue is so beautiful. Having a color-blindness called Tritonopia, this is one of the only colors that I can see all of the time. The shoes fit great, they look great! Thank you Nike for helping out us color-blind folks as well.
