After years of Kevin Durant being nicknamed the āSlim Reaperā, Nike is releasing a KD 16 with this nickname during Spring 2024.
The sneakers take their name from Kevin Durantās nickname, which he earned for being tall, slim, and a deadly scorer. The pair honors Durant with a sleek construction that boasts synthetic mudguards, a TPU cage system, a woven upper, and a midsole equipped with Zoom Air. The color scheme comes in "Black", "Metallic Silver", "Purple" and "Blue". Kevin Durantās branding appears on the heel and tongue area in "Metallic Silver". The midsole is entirely "Black", while the outsole comes in an icy "Light Blue". The limited-edition KD 16 releases during Spring 2024 at select Nike Basketball retailers and on Nike.com.
