Say what you want about the KD IV's but they were the hottest kicks and most affordable of the year, at least before resellers got to them. It's going to be hard for Nike to top that silhouette. Just to keep the party going here's a look at a PE for the Miami Heats Mike Miller which will have sneaker heads rushing over to nikeID to create something close.
The Nike Zoom KD 4 is one of this years’ most popular and affordable sneakers due to its humble $95 price stylish design and colorways that drop monthly. The sneaker features a Bright Volt base along with Black detailing accents throughout which would be a definite head turner if they hit retailers.
Arguably Nike Basketball's hottest sneaker of the season, the Zoom KD IV may enjoy its last hurrah when the USA/Olympic colorway hits retail later this month. 07/28/12 Nike Zoom KD IV 473679-103 White/White-Obsidian-University Red $95.00
The pink-based colorway of Kevin Durant's Zoom KD IV is not only a part of Nike's ongoing partnership with the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, but also a tribute to his late Aunt Pearl. Though Aunt Pearl passed away when Kevin was just 11 years old, she helped mold him into the young man and superstar athlete that he is today. For that reason, a metallic silver pearl pattern has been added to various sections of the shoe, including the tongue, heel, medial side and underside of the cross-strap. Black fills in Swoosh branding and KD logo on the heel, while Kay Yow's Breast Cancer Awareness ribbon adorns the tongue.
According to the NikeStore Twitter account, the "Aunt Pearls" will be released on Saturday, May 12 at select Nike retailers. However, they're also saying that the shoe will NOT be released online. So make sure you're on your Twitter account and keeping an eye out for the RSVP information from your nearest NikeTown.
